Makes sense.  The completion helper for both revname and pathname
should not be called __git_complete_file, and this is a step in the
right direction.

If we have a situation where we _know_ we only want to complete
pathname and never revname, we may want to keep __git_complete_file
function.  For example, after seeing "--" on the command line, we
may want to use __git_complete_file (that does not look at revs,
instead of __git_complete_revlist_file function.

Will apply.

Thanks.
