Documentation/rev-parse: quoting is required with --parseopt
When calling rev-parse --parseopt, as in the (now fixed) documented example eval "$(echo "$OPTS_SPEC" | git rev-parse --parseopt -- "$@" || echo exit $?)" the outermost quoting is required, as otherwise all runs of arbitrary whitespace inside the resulting 'set -- ...' call would be collapsed into a single space. This was exposed as a result of our new use of cat <<\EOF since 47e9cd28 (parseopt: wrap rev-parse --parseopt usage for eval consumption, 2010-06-12), but has always been a problem when handling arguments containing e.g. newlines. Point this out in the documentation, and in particular correct the example that did not have the quotes.
