Message-ID: <20260127-toon-last-modified-tree-v5-3-38d18a0956d4@iotcl.com>
In-Reply-To: <20260127-toon-last-modified-tree-v5-0-38d18a0956d4@iotcl.com>

When the user passes two revisions, they get the following output:

    $ git last-modified HEAD HEAD~
    error: last-modified can only operate on one revision at a time
    error: unable to setup last-modified

The error message about "unable to setup" is not very informative, remove it.
