Heh, I think this is a leftover from 33e8fc874 (usage: do not insist that standard input must come from a file, 2015-10-16). Before then, the usage at the top said something like: git patch-id < <patch> and this "parameter" made sense. But after, we just talk about stdin in the text, and mentioning "<patch>" is simply confusing. I looked through the other documentation touched by 33e8fc874 to see if there were other cases of this same problem, but I think this is the only one. -Peff
