git clone should be passed the $SVNQUIETFLAG on line 73 of update_translations

It would make sense to use "git clone --no-checkout", since the master
branch may not exist (it doesn't in kde-qt), and since right after the
clone, we're doing a "git reset --hard" to the branch we want.

"git clean -f" was added in v1.5.3.5-14-g562ca19, previously just "git
clean" would clean the workdir, nowadays -f is required.

Not sure about this one

That's pre-historic, especially in Git terms. I would not bother
supporting any git that old.
