I also think that is the better approach. Dumping out the argv array is 
not the best end-user experience. It is just a debugging aid, and for 
that we have (or should extend if necessary) GIT_TRACE infrastructure. 
Moreover, a command that failed should have printed error messages, and 
it is not necessary to follow it up with another "A child process exited 
with code N" message.
