Richard Fearn 2292e1cebe git-sed: use "git grep -z" and "xargs -0" to cope with spaces in filenames
Otherwise filenames with spaces result in errors:

    $ cat "file with spaces in name"
    old

    $ git sed old new
    sed: can't read file: No such file or directory
    sed: can't read with: No such file or directory
    sed: can't read spaces: No such file or directory
    sed: can't read in: No such file or directory
    sed: can't read name: No such file or directory
