I guess we could teach for-each-ref to output this as well?  Perhaps
something like authorstamp?

I think you can work with "author" or "committer" to grab the
whole raw line.

About the quoting and parsing, language specific quoting mode is
meant for git-for-each-ref to produce a string that can be eval'ed
in the host language.  Think of the command as a tool to write a
short program for you.

Thanks for the education.  Very simple, and very powerful.  I knew there
was a reason for it out there.  Will respin a V3 patch in a bit.
