Okay I will do the change. I was previously unaware about the use of '\' before EOF. I googled it now. But I am still confused about its use in this scenario. Upto what I understood, it is used where you want to expand a variable, substitute a command, arithmethic expansion. The use of '\' in the tests I have changed in v12 wrt 11 is understood by me as you want to remove the use of escape sequences which is justified. But this seems a bit vague. Is it some convention in git?
