Fix truncation of parameters that could occur when using xargs git-annex.
This will only ever result in a few more git-ls-files being run than were run
before. (Only 1 more is really needed, but around 10 more are currently run
for a max length command line.)
So, no need to worry about the extra zombie, or lost laziness due to concat.
