If any of the printed paths by llvm-config contain quotes, spaces, backslashes or dollar sign characters, these paths will be quoted and escaped, but only if using
--quote-paths
. The previous behavior is retained for compatibility and--quote-paths
is there to acknowledge the migration to the new behavior.Following discussion in #76304
Fixes #28117
Superseeds #97305
I could also do what @tothambrus11 suggests in #97305 (comment) but that makes all Windows paths quoted & escaped since they all contain backslashes.
