Re: [PATCH] Disable VC when Emacs is noninteractive -batch

[Richard Stallman]

    I think that VC should be disabled by default when emacs is passed the
    -batch option.

Please don't do it.  There is no logical reason why it is wrong for
batch-mode Emacs to do VC operations, so I think that is an attempt to
work around a problem.  We should first try to solve it the right way.

      Also, even when building Emacs (as of a
    week ago, at least), VC prints several spurious messages on the console;
    they are harmless in this case, but nonetheless provide needless
    clutter.

What causes these messages?
