These are the last > occurrences of "munged". I'd rather see the "we do not munge" to stay the same. "we do not quote" still allows us to do modifications that are different from quoting. > You are OK with the references to another man page? My idea was to > establish a well-known term. The "well-known term" cannot just be "quote", because it is too generic. "git rev-parse --sq-quote" does a different kind of quoting from the quoting done here for paths with unusual characters, for example. We certainly *could* (1) add to glossary-content.txt the definition of "c-quote" and describe it there, (2) change the "see the quoting explained for core.quotePath" to "unless -z is given, paths are c-quoted", and (3) change the core.quotePath description to refer to "c-quote" in the glossary. But I am not sure it that makes the resulting document easier to use by the end users. I personally find the result of applying the patch you posted easier.
