New test case in t6000 covered this case. Branch "--output=yikes"
which starts with a dash is used as revision after the option
"--end-of-options", and it won't be interpreted as an option.
test_expect_success 'parse pseudo option "--not" after "--end-of-options"' '

EOF
git log --pretty="%m %s" --end-of-options \
HEAD --not --output=yikes -- \

test_cmp expect actual

But for the original implementation, because pseudo revision options
(--branches, --tags, --not, ..., etc) can not be used after the
"--end-of-options" option, we have to put "--end-of-options" at the
end of revisions, such as:
git log --pretty="%m %s" rev1 --not rev2 rev3 rev4 \
--end-of-options -- path/file
We can see from the above command, the option "--end-of-options" is
immediately followed by a dashdash. That is very strange. DashDash is
designed to separate pathspecs from args, and "--end-of-options" is
designed to separate revisions from options. But because of the pseudo
revision options, "--end-of-options" is meaningless for commands
calling "setup_revisions()".
Yes, "--end-of-options" must be used if there is a revision which
starts with dash, such as branch "--output=yikes" in t6000. That's
even stranger, for we have to write command in the middle of
revisions like this:
git log --pretty="%m %s" rev1 --not rev2 rev3 \
--end-of-options --output=yikes -- path/file
I know "rev1..rev2" and "rev2 ^rev1", but I prefer to use "rev1 --not
rev2 rev3" instead of "rev1 ^rev2 ^rev3".
