Improved error message of rev_parse

As described by git-rev-parse: Many Git porcelainish commands take mixture of flags (i.e. parameters that begin with a dash -) and parameters meant for the underlying git rev-list command they use internally and flags and parameters for the other commands they use downstream of git rev-list. This command is used to distinguish between them.Using the `--` to separate revisions from paths is at the core of git.I do not think this behavior will ever change.The message without the extra parameters: fatal: ambiguous argument 'v3': unknown revision or path not in the working tree. Use '--' to separate paths from revisions, like this: 'git <command> [<revision>...] -- [<file>...]'The message with new parameters: fatal: bad revision 'NOTFOUND'I think it's way more descriptive.
