Use the :silent command. That is, replace
-c "g/.\+-- $/normal d}"'
with
-c "silent g/.\+-- $/normal d}"'
Also, it's not a good idea to execute "set nocp" anywhere but at
the very start of the initialization process. I would recommend not
using that setting at all but instead adding the "-N" option to your
vim command. That will accomplish the same thing but more safely.
For more details, see
:help :silent
:help -N
