git patches: correct handling of filenames with spaces Add a trailing TAB to the "--- filename" lines if there's a space in the file name. This allows patch(1) to work correctly. The same is done for diff --nodates. This was originally suggested by Andrei Vermel, but at the time I thought git was doing something different.

#!/bin/sh
#
mkdir t
cd t
hg init
echo 0 > a
echo 0 > b
hg ci -A -m m -d "1000000 0"
hg rm a
hg cat a
sleep 1 # make sure mtime is changed
echo 1 > b
hg ci -m m -d "1000000 0"
echo 2 > b
hg cat -r 0 a
hg cat -r 0 b
hg cat -r 1 a
hg cat -r 1 b
