If we want to prepare ourselves against any arbitrary garbage the
builder may throw at us, using printf with _fixed_ format and feed
the potentially arbitrary garbage as its parameter to be
interpolated is the safest approach, so writing it as

    printf "agent=git/%s\n" "$(git version | cut ...)"

would signal the readers that whoever wrote it knew what they were
doing and was being extra careful.

THanks.
