This fixes a problem my repository mirroring script has been having since
the git-fetch--tool was added to master in the middle of March. However,
it is not a proper fix since it causes actual errors from snprintf() to be
ignored. A proper fix is complicated by the lack of a consistent indicator
that the buffer is too small across snprintf() implementations.
