These two patches replace and extend the precious patches with the same subject. Suggestions from Philip Oakley and Junio C Hamano are included.

I tried to find and adjust all places where pathname quoting and "-z" were described. I omitted these places:

* Here "-z" is for input only. Quoting is unclear to me.

-- git-mktree.txt -- git-update-index.txt -- git-checkout-index.txt

* Here pathname quoting is not mentioned:

-- git-check-ignore.txt -- git-check-attr.txt

And last but not least: 
- git-grep.txt: The paths are always unquoted, `-z` toggles only the
delimiter. Perhaps some CAVEAT should be added.
