That "hopefully" does not build much confidence.

"All have inttypes.h, so just include it" does not say why it is a
good idea to do so, if the source before this patch built OK without
including it.

    Bad things like this and that happen because the current code
    does not include inttypes.h, but the header exists everywhere so
    we can fix this and that by including it.

would be more understandable, but otherwise, it is unclear what
problems it attempts to fix, and if it is an improvement overall to
trade it off with the possible breakage on some systems.

The log message also needs to explain why inclusion order in
git-compat-util.h must be changed.  What problem does that change
fix?
