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
python -c 'print "confuse str.splitlines\nembedded\rnewline"' > a
hg ci -Ama -d '1 0'
echo clean diff >> a
hg ci -mb -d '2 0'
hg diff -r0 -r1
