sha1_name: do not trigger detailed diagnosis for file arguments
diagnose_invalid_sha1_path() is meant to be called to diagnose a misspelt <treeish>:<pathname> when <pathname> does not exist in <treeish>. However, the code may call it if <treeish>:<pathname> is invalid (which triggers another call with only_to_die == 1), but for another reason. This happens when calling e.g. git log existing-file HEAD:existing-file because existing-file is a path and not a revision, the code verifies that the arguments that follow to be paths. This leads to an incorrect message like "existing-file does not exist in HEAD", even though the path exists in HEAD. Check that the search for <pathname> in <treeish> fails before triggering the diagnosis. Signed-off-by: Matthieu Moy <Matthieu.Moy@imag.fr> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
