[PATCH v2 1/2] rev-parse: fix segfault with missing --path-format argument

From: Wolfgang Müller <hidden>
Date: 2021-05-17 08:03:22
Subsystem: the rest · Maintainer: Linus Torvalds

Calling "git rev-parse --path-format" without an argument segfaults
instead of giving an error message. Commit fac60b8925 (rev-parse: add
option for absolute or relative path formatting, 2020-12-13) added the
argument parsing code but forgot to handle NULL.

Returning an error makes sense here because there is no default value we
could use. Add a test case to verify.
