Thanks.  Weird.  Does

	awk -v c=0 '$1 != "" {++c} END {print c}'

work better?

Some implementations of wc add a trailing space, causing

	printf: 1 : invalid number

Using

	printf "SHA $dir (%d entries, %d subtrees)\n" "$entries" $subtree_count &&

(with no quotes around $subtree_count) would avoid trouble, though
that's a little subtle.

Hope that helps,
Jonathan
