[PATCH] Don't allow newlines to occur in $Id:$ collapse

From: Andy Parkins <hidden>
Date: 2016-06-15 22:43:12
Subsystem: the rest · Maintainer: Linus Torvalds

If a newline ever made it into an repository-side expanded $Id$ field,
the keyword would still be detected as a keyword and collapsed, before
rexpansion, e.g.

 $Id: all of this text would be removed, even if there
 were a newline in the middle of it$

This patch catches newlines in this case and abandons treating this as a
keyword expansion, this text would be left untouched in the working
checkout.
