Urgh, this second hunk is clearly bogus. This is a -Wformat-nonliteral
problem, but not because of oid_to_hex(), but rather because of
"format". :-/

Here's a corrected patch. But as this has demonstrated the dangers of
churn, and as it doesn't really get us meaningfully closer to being able
to use -Wformat-nonliteral, perhaps the best course of action is to just
drop it (I do think the "walker_say" patch has more inherent value as a
cleanup, though).

Subject: [PATCH] avoid using sha1_to_hex output as printf format

We know that it should not contain any percent-signs, but
it's a good habit not to feed non-literals to printf
formatters.
