The final sentence in the commit message needs s/to/too/. However, I'm
not sure this is the only remaining case. Doing:

  git grep -E 'git.*[^|]\|($|[^|])'

shows quite a few. I guess you just looked for "nul_to_q". There is
certainly no need to fix all of them, but you may want to note the
extent of your grepping in your commit message.
