Recent MinGW has a C99 implementation of snprintf functions

j6t · gitster · commit ec47a33fd2c3 · 2010-05-20T16:13:10.000-07:00
Starting with MinGW 3.14, released end of 2007, a working snprintf
is available. This means we do not need our own replacement that works
around the broken implementation in Microsoft's C runtime.

People who build git in an old MinGW environment are expected to set
SNPRINTF_RETURNS_BOGUS in their config.mak. msysgit is sufficiently
recent, of course.
