POSIX specifies The read utility shall read a single line from standard input. By default, unless the -r option is specified, backslash ('\') shall act as an escape character... Our omission of -r breaks the loop reading refnames from git-for-each-ref in __git_refs() if there are refnames such as "foo'bar", in which case for-each-ref helpfully quotes them as in $ git update-ref "refs/remotes/test/foo'bar" HEAD $ git for-each-ref --shell --format="ref=%(refname:short)" "refs/remotes" ref='test/foo'\''bar' Interpolating the \' here will read "ref='test/foo'''bar'" instead, and eval then chokes on the unbalanced quotes. However, since none of the read loops _want_ to have backslashes interpolated, it's much safer to use read -r everywhere.
