Re: [PATCH] rev-list: restore the NUL commit separator in --header mode

What's the point of that "touch", especially if you are going to
overwrite it immediately after?

As "tail" is a tool for text files, it is likely unportable to use
"tail -n1" to grab the "last incomplete line that happens to contain
a single NUL".
