archive-tar: report filter start error only once
A missing tar filter is reported by start_command() using error(), but also by its caller, write_tar_filter_archive(), using die(): $ git -c tar.invalid.command=foo archive --format=invalid HEAD error: cannot run foo: No such file or directory fatal: unable to start 'foo' filter: No such file or directory The second message contains all relevant information and even says that the failed command was intended to be used as a filter. Silence the first one because it's redundant. Signed-off-by: René Scharfe <l.s.r@web.de> Signed-off-by: Taylor Blau <me@ttaylorr.com>
