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

hg init dir
cd dir
echo bleh > bar
hg add bar
hg ci -m 'add bar'

hg cp bar foo
echo >> bar
hg ci -m 'cp bar foo; change bar'

hg debugrename foo
hg debugindex .hg/store/data/bar.i
