The problem with that is that it would break backwards compatibility,
though it is possible that noone is using file names with spaces in them
since this has never worked. I don't believe it is documented this way
either.
I don't suppose you would be willing to test out this patch:
<http://ximbiot.com/ccvs.newfmtstrings.1-11.diff>? Among other things
it unifies the format of the *info file command templates and IIRC
provides for paths with spaces by quoting them or the like while
allowing for backwards compatibility.
I've been trying to get this patch tested for awhile now. A few people
have volunteered but never gave any feedback. Hopefully it still
applies without trouble. There should be docs and test cases included.
I believe the patch was against 1.11.
Let me know if there's anything else I can do.
