Just like 47abd85ba0 (fetch: Strip usernames from url's before storing
them, 2009-04-17) and later 882d49ca5c (push: anonymize URL in status
output, 2016-07-13), this change anonymizes URLs (read: strips them of
user names and especially passwords) in user-facing error messages and
warnings.

Yeah, these all look obviously correct. I suspect most people haven't
noticed them because it's pretty easy to use a real password helper
these days instead of shoving it into the URL.

Looking at the code, I think we'd keep the trailing slash during the
anonymization. Good.

Sort of orthogonal to your patch, but these could probably stand to be
marked for translation (I'm happy for that to come on top later,
though).

Good attention to detail here.
