Thanks.  It is not wrong per-se, but if you are willing to do a
multi-line script for readability, wouldn't a much more readable
"single long and multi-line string" approach, i.e.

    sed -ne '
	/^~~~~*$/ {
		x
		s/^.*$/ "&",/
		p
	}
	x
    ' Documentation/githooks.txt |
    LC_ALL=C sort

work better?
