Based on this latest comment, I left the `%n$s` directive in the v2 of the 
patch.

Let me know if that’s still OK. Otherwise, I’d be happy to implement Eric’s 
suggestion.

Note however that this would be a “poor” canary to check if that directive is 
supported on all the platforms on which git has been ported.
Indeed, this code is executed only on systemd platforms, which means quite 
recent Linux systems.
Should this directive not be supported, I suppose it would be on more exotic 
systems.
