This is failing for me when I use "git submodule add" with a remote
helper I whitelisted with GIT_ALLOW_PROTOCOL, with current "next":

 $ bin-wrappers/git submodule add 
persistent-https://kernel.googlesource.com/pub/scm/git/git sm
 Cloning into 'sm'...
 error: bogus format in GIT_CONFIG_PARAMETERS
 fatal: unable to parse command-line config
 fatal: clone of 'persistent-https://kernel.googlesource.com/pub/scm/git/git' 
into submodule path 'sm' failed

sq_dequote_to_argv doesn't like the space at the beginning of
$GIT_CONFIG_PARAMETERS.  Reverting 14111fc4 fixes it.  Known
problem?

Thanks,
Jonathan
