Hello,

I ran into the following bug today: "BUG: PATHSPEC_PREFER_CWD requires
arguments". It's not that bad because I'm trying to run `git log
--merge` on an already resolved conflict. Still, I don't think I
should hit a "BUG:" :-)

Here is a script to reproduce:
git init .
>a
git add a
git commit -m"create a"
git branch other
echo "1" >a
git commit -m"add 1" a
git checkout other
echo "2" >a
git commit -m"add 2" a
git merge master
git add a
git log --merge -- a
# Fails with "fatal: BUG: PATHSPEC_PREFER_CWD requires arguments"

Here is what GDB gives me when I break on die():
Breakpoint 1, die (err=0x57e3a8 "BUG: PATHSPEC_PREFER_CWD requires
arguments") at usage.c:97
97              if (die_is_recursing()) {

And here is what bisect found:
commit 9a0872744315da67db3c81eb9270751e31fcc8f5
Author: Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy <pclo...@gmail.com>
Date:   Sun Jul 14 15:35:59 2013 +0700

    remove init_pathspec() in favor of parse_pathspec()

    While at there, move free_pathspec() to pathspec.c
