redirect which stderr to /dev/null for consistency
The "standard" which (debianutils) has no output whatsoever on stderr, bash and dash which use this implementation therefore haven't either. In zsh 'which' is a shell built-in – and has no stderr output either, it does print an error message on stdout… So, realistically, a redirection isn't needed at all, but it also can't hurt (<- I have said that before in this context ->) so why not for consistency with… well, not with "command -v" as that hasn't an error message either. Lets say for consistency with my mental image of shell, as I am still a bit puzzled by zsh's which and now could imagine even more strange things in other shells. Closes: 807373
