git-prompt: make __git_eread intended use explicit
__git_eread is used to read a single line of a given file (if it exists) into a single variable stripping the EOL. This patch removes the unused capability to split file contents into tokens by passing multiple variable names. Add a comment and explicitly use $2 instead of misleading $@ as argument to the read builtin command.
