Per "man 5 crontab":
The entire command portion of the line, up to a newline or %
character, will be executed by /bin/sh or by the shell
specified in the SHELL variable of the cronfile. Percent-signs
(%) in the command, unless escaped with backslash (\), will be
changed into new-line characters, and all data after the first %
will be sent to the command as standard input.
