Re: log/show: relative pathnames do not work in rev:path

And I still maintain that expecting <tree-ish>:<path> to take the current 
relative path into account would be just like if you expected

	C:\> cd WINDOWS
	C:\WINDOWS> dir D:system32

to show you the contents of D:\WINDOWS\system32.

Or another, less Windowsy example:

	$ cd /usr/bin
	$ scp home:bash ./

No, this does not copy home:/usr/bin/bash but home:$HOME/bash.

Please do not cc me on this topic, unless it is a patch implementing
suggestion from Linus to treat $commit^{tree} as relative to $(cwd) but
for only when the user directly specified that in full, including ^{tree}
part.
