Can you cover all cases with $IFS, including filenames with newlines? I agree it is probably OK in practice and for the OP's question, but it is nice to have "-z" variants so you do not have to worry about quoting at all. I'd argue that a "--stdin -z" should probably also accept raw filenames, not pathspecs, too (so you do not have to use "--literal-pathspecs" elsewhere). -Peff -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
