The output is now much more consistent with other invalid
input. The only (minor) difference I noticed was when using
the fff...fff form. With exactly 40 chars, rev-parse prints
both refs separately and then the full input string before
the "fatal:" error. I doubt it's terribly important.
# exactly 40 chars
$ ./git-rev-parse ffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffff...ffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffff
ffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffff
ffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffff
ffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffff...ffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffff
fatal: ambiguous argument 'ffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffff...ffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffff': unknown revision or path not in the working tree.
Use '--' to separate paths from revisions, like this:
'git <command> [<revision>...] -- [<file>...]'
# not 40 chars
$ ./git-rev-parse fffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffff...fffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffff
fffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffff...fffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffff
fatal: ambiguous argument 'fffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffff...fffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffff': unknown revision or path not in the working tree.
Use '--' to separate paths from revisions, like this:
'git <command> [<revision>...] -- [<file>...]'

I added Florian to Cc, in case he wants to provide a
preferred address. (The Red Hat Bugzilla only shows
email addresses if you're logged in.)
Thanks Elijah and Peff.
