That's dense, especially without a comment (or named variable) that
hints readers what the arguments to this helper (and its standard
input) ought to be.
As long as messages from rev-parse on the error stream never has
more than one abbreviated object name on a single line, the above
should give us a copy of the message with expected object name
abbreviated to $2; otherwise we might be missing a /g in the sed
script.
