Subject: sha1_name: Suggest commit:./file for path in subdir
X-Git-Tag: v1.7.5.1~10^2
X-Git-Url: http://git.osdn.net/view?a=commitdiff_plain;h=e41d718c7df31c891b242bcf3a1cfea812308e40;p=git-core%2Fgit.git

sha1_name: Suggest commit:./file for path in subdir

Currently, the "Did you mean..." message suggests "commit:fullpath"
only. Extend this to show the more convenient "commit:./file" form also.
