We recently moved over the git client from the merge script to the
common dev-infra utils. This made specifying a token optional, but
it looks like the logic for sanitizing messages doesn't account
for that, and we currently add `<TOKEN>` between every message
character. e.g.
```
Executing: git <TOKEN>g<TOKEN>i<TOKEN>t<TOKEN>
<TOKEN>s<TOKEN>t<TOKEN>a<TOKEN>t<TOKEN>u<TOKEN>s<TOKEN>
```
