Currently, the completion for 'git format-patch' uses
__git_complete_revlist.  Although this is technically correct, and you
can

  $ git format-patch master contrib

where master is a ref and contrib is a pathspec, just like in 'git log',
the usage is unidiomatic and undocumented.  'git format-patch' is used
without pathspec filtering most of the time, and it makes sense to
provide sensible completions using __git_refs.
