I do not see any dq within dq here. Perhaps you need to count again
to see which one pairs with which one.
What I see are these three strings concatenated together:
--pretty=format: (which does not need any dq)
%an" "%ad (the dq protects 3 SPs inside)
(an empty string inside the final dq pair)
So the single parameter that begins with --pretty given to "git log"
is exactly the same as what is inside the single dq pair in the
following:
"--pretty=format:%an %ad"
A more conventional way to spell it may however be one of:
--pretty=format:"%an %ad"
--pretty="format:%an %ad"
