When reflog is asked for an entry that it doesnt have, for eg with
"HEAD@{5}" get_oid_basic() reports how many entries the log has. The
message is not marked for plural forms and a log with one entry says
that "only has 1 entries"

Use Q_() so that the singular is used for one entry so that
translations for languages with other plural forms also can have the
right form for each count.

Changes since v1: t1506 was also looking for "entries" and thus
failed with a one-entry reflog. Now it matches "entr" just like Junio
suggested

When reflog is asked for an entry that it doesnt have, for eg with
"HEAD@{5}" get_oid_basic() reports how many entries the log has. The
message is not marked for plural forms and a log with one entry says
that "only has 1 entries"

Use Q_() so that the singular is used for one entry so that
translations for languages with other plural forms also can have the
right form for each count.

Resend of v2, now sent as a reply to v1. No other changes.

Changes since v1: t1506 was also looking for "entries" and thus
failed with a one-entry reflog. Now it matches "entr" just like Junio
