quoting in get_author_ident_from_commit

Hello,

I wonder about the quoting done in get_author_ident_from_commit's sed script.

It first does 's/'\''/'\''\\'\'\''/g', then 's/'\''/'\''\'\'\''/g' (the latter once for each resulting line). What sed actually sees is:

	s/'/'\\''/g
	s/'/'\''/g 

The second instruction only substitutes a single quote by three single quotes because \' is just interpreted as '.

So I think just removing the three occurences of the second substitute command just can be removed, as ''' effectively is the same as '.

Do I miss something?

(The first command was introduced in aa66c7ec77d474b737da607d6cb2d07f56628def, the second was introduced with git commit -m in fec3ef101c0f18bbf2400423dc70e686e9d25b0)

Thanks Uwe
