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.
This probably showed that my initial description and example for
the feature found in Documentation/git-for-each-ref was lacking.
I would appreciate a separate patch to enhance it if you are so
inclined.
