So something like the patch below does the quoting correctly (try
committing a file like "name with spaces" and doing "git show
HEAD:<TAB>"), and isn't too much slower:
real 0m0.114s
user 0m0.108s
sys 0m0.004s
That's almost double the time without handling quoting, but keep in mind
this is on 10,000 entries (and the real sluggishness we are trying to
avoid is an order of magnitude). So it might be acceptable.
This is just a proof-of-concept patch. We'd probably want to replace the
perl below with a more complicated sed invocation for portability (the
trickiness is that the output is shown to the user, so we very much
don't want to quote anything that does not have to be).
