Feature request: setting to wrap absolute path Copy Path command with quotes

[henrikvilhelmberglund]

I use VSCode on Windows with git bash as the terminal. A problem I have is when I want to cd into a folder: I right click a folder, do Copy Path, focus the terminal and do cd and paste the folder. I end up with this:

$ cd C:\Github\forks\kit\packages\kit\test\apps\basics
bash: cd: C:Githubforkskitpackageskittestappsbasics: No such file or directory

The shell eats the \ because they are not escaped and the path isn't quoted.

This feature request is for a setting to optionally wrap the path with single or double quotes:

Explorer: Wrap absolute Copy Path file path with quotes "No quotes (default)" "Single" "Double"

Right now Copy Path gives C:\Github\forks\kit\packages\kit\test\apps\basics which would still be the default.

Single would give 'C:\Github\forks\kit\packages\kit\test\apps\basics' Double would give "C:\Github\forks\kit\packages\kit\test\apps\basics"

This feature would make it smoother to interact with absolute paths from the Copy Path command on Windows machines/shells.

Interesting idea, I think the best place for this to live would be some "smart paste" feature in the terminal, where if it looks like a path it would wrap it in quotes or escape the space characters if deemed necessary depending on the shell type.
