What kind of breakage does this patch fix?
It doesn't fix anything, but it is a good usability standard to obey --.
I was creating a script that would _automatically_ clone repositories of 
other users. As a little bit pedantic shell script writer I added "--" 
and noticed that git clone doesn't handle that, although it's expected 
behavior from many tools.
