Set $IFS to newline, so that $(git diff --name-only ...) output is
split at record boundaries, not inside pathnames?
A quick experiment you can do to convince yourself may be:
-- >8 --
#!/bin/sh
data () {
echo "a"
echo "b c" ;# SP in between
echo "d e " ;# HT and trailing SP
}
show () {
for i
do
echo "<<$i>>"
done
}
echo ONE
show $(data)
IFS='
'
echo TWO
show $(data)
-- 8< --
On the "git archive" invocation, there may be something that tells
the pathspecs are literal, like '--literal-pathspecs' option, to
avoid metacharacters from being expanded, though.
