| 8 | * any single quote is replaced with '\'', any exclamation point |
| 9 | * is replaced with '\!', and the whole thing is enclosed in a |
| 10 | * single quote pair. |

| 12 | * For example, if you are passing the result to system() as an |
| 13 | * argument: |
| 14 | * |
| 15 | * sprintf(cmd, "foobar %s %s", sq_quote(arg0), sq_quote(arg1)) |
| 16 | * |
| 17 | * would be appropriate. If the system() is going to call ssh to |
| 18 | * run the command on the other side: |
| 19 | * |
| 20 | * sprintf(cmd, "git-diff-tree %s %s", sq_quote(arg0), sq_quote(arg1)); |
