$refspec gets assigned in the third line of the function. The function
has only one caller in cmd_add() inside an if clause that requires
there be two parameters.

Personally I'd rather move git-subtree to be more portable and less
dependant on bash. I've sent some patches earlier to remove that
dependancy. As far as I could see there wasn't really anything that
was bash-only.

Reroll of this patch coming shortly allowing for $IFS whitespace.
