This means that if you do "gitk rev -- file" we will end up with two
"--" in the git rev-list command that gitk does. I think we actually
want the patch below.
Junio: there seems to be an inconsistency between git rev-list and git
rev-parse here. If a name is both a filename and a ref, git rev-list
will give a fatal error but git rev-parse will take it as a ref.
