Is "to give no quarter" commonly used or not? What is the Chinese equivalent?
Could you please use the idom in a sentence?

give no quarter = to stand 100% firm and give nothing
Yes, it is still commonly used. Why do you ask?

"give no quarter" is outmoded, but used in "period" films, such as pirate movies.
It means to show no mercy, as moorche says.
Example:
"The two ships pulled together and the frigate was boarded. The fighting was fierce - no quarter asked and none given."
"No quarter asked and none given" = no mercy shown by either side.
Chinese equivalent (I hope): 给无情人有情
