[PATCH v3 11/13] builtin/shortlog: don't set up revisions without repo

From

Message-ID
<509c79d1d33a69367726549fcf87f932f83db864.1714371422.git.ps@pks.im>
In-Reply-To
<cover.1714371422.git.ps@pks.im>

It is possible to run git-shortlog(1) outside of a repository by passing it output from git-log(1) via standard input. Obviously, as there is no repository in that context, it is thus unsupported to pass any revisions as arguments.

Regardless of that we still end up calling `setup_revisions()`. While that works alright, it is somewhat strange. Furthermore, this is about to cause problems when we unset the default object hash.

Refactor the code to only call `setup_revisions()` when we have a repository. This is safe to do as we already verify that there are no arguments when running outside of a repository anyway.
