I wouldn't test for filenames containing spaces, tabs, or newlines, I'd just write code that works even if they are present. (And if I found users creating filenames containing whitespace characters, I'd ban them from using my system! Unfortunately, there need to be exceptions for some things like .mp3 and .mp4 files with spaces in the titles of songs and movies, but most users creating filenames containing spaces are just trying to create problems for inexperienced programmers.)
Stop trying to create lists and then trying to process the list. Process filenames one at a time. And, learn to use shell built-ins instead of pipelines of awk, grep, and ls commands. Try something more like:
Code:
#!/bin/bash
# Assume that we are starting in a directory with a filename suffix ".git".
# Get related non-".git" directory name.
FOLDER_NAME=${PWD##*/} # Extract last component of current working directory
FOLDER_NAME=${FOLDER_NAME%.git} # Throw away ".git".
printf 'DEBUG: VAR FOLDER_NAME=%s\n' "$FOLDER_NAME"
# Process the files in the non-".git" directory...
for FILE in ../"$FOLDER_NAME"/*
do # Skip files that are not regular files...
[ ! -f "$FILE" ] && continue
# Do whatever you want with the regular file from ../"$FOLDER_NAME"...
printf 'DEBUG: VAR FILE="%s"\n' "$FILE"
printf 'another file inside the FOR loop\n:' # Should ":" be before newline?
done
If you don't understand how something in the above works, try running it with:
Code:
bash -xv script_name
and watch how bash processes each command in the script. If you still don't understand, ask questions... We're here to help you learn.
I've made a habit of including a four-letter "tail" on image file names I download from the Web, so I can both match them with IPTC Transmission References of my own making and rename them later using either a GUI renamer or a script I've written myself.

git-annex-shell
git-annex-shell(1) General Commands Manual git-annex-shell(1)NAME
git-annex-shell - Restricted login shell for git-annex only SSH access
SYNOPSIS
git-annex-shell [-c] command [params ...]
DESCRIPTION
git-annex-shell is a restricted shell, similar to git-shell, which can be used as a login shell for SSH accounts.
Since its syntax is identical to git-shell's, it can be used as a drop-in replacement anywhere git-shell is used. For example it can be
used as a user's restricted login shell.
COMMANDS
Any command not listed below is passed through to git-shell.
Note that the directory parameter should be an absolute path, otherwise it is assumed to be relative to the user's home directory. Also the
first "/~/" or "/~user/" is expanded to the specified home directory.
configlist directory
This outputs a subset of the git configuration, in the same form as git config --list
inannex directory [key ...]
This checks if all specified keys are present in the annex, and exits zero if so.
dropkey directory [key ...]
This drops the annexed data for the specified keys.
recvkey directory key
This runs rsync in server mode to receive the content of a key, and stores the content in the annex.
sendkey directory key
This runs rsync in server mode to transfer out the content of a key.
commit directory
This commits any staged changes to the git-annex branch. It also runs the annex-content hook.
OPTIONS
Most options are the same as in git-annex. The ones specific to git-annex-shell are:
--uuid=UUID
git-annex uses this to specify the UUID of the repository it was expecting git-annex-shell to access, as a sanity check.
HOOK
After content is received or dropped from the repository by git-annex-shell, it runs a hook, .git/hooks/annex-content (or hooks/annex-con-
tent on a bare repository). The hook is not currently passed any information about what changed.
ENVIRONMENT
GIT_ANNEX_SHELL_READONLY
If set, disallows any command that could modify the repository.
GIT_ANNEX_SHELL_LIMITED
If set, disallows running git-shell to handle unknown commands.

Unfortunately, there need to be exceptions for some things like .mp3 and .mp4 files with spaces in the titles of songs and movies, but most users creating filenames containing spaces are just trying to create problems for inexperienced programmers.)
