This patch most likely breaks localization of this text and I'm not sure if we
should really change the examples to show the quoting. If this is a cmd.exe
requirement I don't think we should perform the escaping as there are more ways
to run svn than just from cmd.
Adding some note suggesting the quoting after the main help text might be more
appropriate and this would be easier to localize.
