You are right. Being a total Perl noob I just took Eric's suggestion from an
earlier post without really understanding everything.

Now that you mention it, I am not entirely sure. We introduce the % which is
mangled as well. It wasn't mangled before.

I now could think of a case that someone has a git-svn branch with a % in the
name checked out.

When updates are fetched a new branch head would be created. It wouldn't 
destroy anything, but a script might break. On the other hand, the script needs
to be updated anyway. So I am not sure if % should be handled separately.

Yes, Eric, please comment.
