Hi Shourya,

I'm not aware of anywhere in CodingGuidelines that says you can't have
the pipe operator on a single line. I assume you're referring to the
part that reads

	If a command sequence joined with && or || or | spans multiple
	lines, put each command on a separate line and put && and || and
	| operators at the end of each line, rather than the start.

Note that says "If a command sequence [...] spans multiple lines", which
doesn't apply in our case.

For the reason above, I disagree with this change as-is. However, one
useful thing that you can do here is breaking the pipe up entirely. We
want to avoid is having a git command in the upstream of a pipe. This is
because the return code of a pipe comes from the last command executed
so if the rev-parse fails, its return code is swallowed and we have no
way of knowing.

You could break the pipe up by storing the output of the rev-parse in an
intermediate file and then have cut read from that file.
