From: Elijah Newren <redacted>
When specifying paths to export, parent rewriting must be turned on for
fast-export to output anything at all.

Try 'git fast-export master -- COPYING' in git.git and notice how there
is no output at all (whereas 'git rev-list master -- COPYING' does show
some existing revisions). This simple patch restores the missing file
and commit in the fast-export output.
