Subject: [PATCH] Don't split git references on unicode separators
Reference:https://github.com/pypa/pip/commit/ca832b2836e0bffa7cf95589acdcd71230f5834e
Previously, maliciously formatted tags could be used to hijack a
commit-based pin. Using the fact that the split here allowed for
all of unicode's whitespace characters as separators -- which git allows
as a part of a tag name -- it is possible to force a different revision
to be installed; if an attacker gains access to the repository.
This change stops splitting the string on unicode characters, by forcing
the splits to happen on newlines and ASCII spaces.
