[BUG?] Path limiting in "git log" when run from another subdir

The following works in the git.git repo:

$ cd t
$ git log -- /Documentation
[...]

but the following does not:

$ cd t
$ git log -- /Documentation/RelNotes
fatal: Could not switch to '/Documentation': No such file or directory


Is this the intended behavior?
