Another possible tweak would be to make ":" without even any "pattern"
after it to become a no-element, in order to allow the same difference
between "git log" and "git log ." to be expressed from within a
subdirectory.
The difference matters when you have commits created with --allow-empty
that are discarded by path based history simplification.
