From: Johannes Schindelin <johannes.schindelin@xxxxxx>
Currently, when called with exactly two arguments, we test for a literal
`..` in each of the two.
However, `<commit>^!` is a perfectly valid commit range, equivalent to
`<commit>^..<commit>` according to the `SPECIFYING RANGES` section of
gitrevisions[7].
In preparation for allowing more sophisticated ways to specify commit
ranges, let's refactor the conditional into its own function.
