Actually, adding progress would make for a fine add-on patch series. I
still would like to have as faithful a conversion as possible, and
everything else can come after that.

This strategy has a couple of advantages:

- we can concentrate on correctness for now,

- I get something to show for my time with Git for Windows v2.10.0, and

- the add-on patches do not have to be done by *me* ;-)

Ciao,
