I am sorry. I was obviously wrong about 'git checkout-index', as it does
not try to unquote if '-z' is specified. So, my previous patch was wrong.
The corrected patch is below.

It still uses the same output format whether '-z' is specified or not.
Maybe I should change that too to use '\0' as the separator if '-z' is
specified?
