Alter rev-parse syntax to support msys git
On windows, msys and cygwin versions of git need braces to be escaped when they are invoked via subprocess. (This appears to be is a side effect of the machinery that converts windows paths to posix-like paths for the executable). If they are not escaped, then "rev^{commit]" becomes a meaningless "rev^commit" to an msys git, resulting in an error. In contrast, we do not want to escape the braces if passing "rev^{commit}" to any other form of git. We can avoid having to decide whether escaping is needed by using the alternative notation "^0".
