Thanks.
I can see how this patch is one way to solve it, but if the command knows that it is feedling only revs and no pathspecs, isn't the caller the one that is responsible for adding "--" to the argv_array it is passing to setup_revisions()?
With s/assume_dashdash/no_pathspecs/, the damage to the revision traversal machinery does not look _too_ bad, but I am not convinced (yet) that this patch is the best way to solve the issue.
