check-ignore -z: a single -z should apply to both input and output
Unless a command has separate --nul-terminated-{input,output} options, the --nul-terminated-records (-z) option should apply to both input and output for consistency. The caller knows that its input paths may need to be protected for LF, and the program shows these problematic paths to its output. The code already did the right thing. Only the help text needs fixing. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
