Some versions of cut do not cope well with lines that do not end in an LF. In this case, we can completely avoid cut by using the ${var%% *} parameter expansion (suggested by Brandon Casey). I found this problem when t3404's "avoid unnecessary reset" failed due to the "rebase -i" not avoiding updating the tested timestamp.
