Care should be taken, though, because that prefix might contain
'for-each-ref' format specifiers as part of the left hand side of a
'..' range or '...' symmetric difference notation or fetch/push/etc.
refspec, e.g. 'git log "evil-%(refname)..br<TAB>'. Doubling every '%'
in the prefix will prevent 'git for-each-ref' from interpolating any
of those contained format specifiers.

This is really pathological, and I'm sure this has nothing to do with
whatever breakage Jacob experienced.
The shell metacharacters '(' and ')' still cause us trouble in various
ways, but that's nothing new and has been the case for quite a while
(always?).
It's already incorporated into (the rewritten)
