just cut -f1 instead of awk? Also don't put "git" on the LHS of a pipe,
it might hide segfaults. Also applies to the below.

Will apply, and could you please describe the problem with more details?
(appreciate if there is an executable example)

Run this in a terminal:

    git stawtus | cat; echo $?;

The LHS of the pipe fails, but the exit code of that command is
hidden. So we prefer:

    git stawtus >out && # fails
