move "--follow needs one pathspec" rule to diff_setup_done
Because of the way "--follow" is implemented, we must have exactly one pathspec. "git log" enforces this restriction, but other users of the revision traversal code do not. For example, "git format-patch --follow" will segfault during try_to_follow_renames, as we have no pathspecs at all. We can push this check down into diff_setup_done, which is probably a better place anyway. It is the diff code that introduces this restriction, so other parts of the code should not need to care themselves. Reported-by: "Michael S.
