From: Johannes Schindelin <johannes.schindelin@gmx.de>

When the user does not select any files to `patch` or `diff`, there is
no need to call `run_add_p()` on them.

Even worse: we _have_ to avoid calling `parse_pathspec()` with an empty
list because that would trigger this error:

	BUG: pathspec.c:557: PATHSPEC_PREFER_CWD requires arguments

So let's avoid doing any work on a list of files that is empty anyway.

This fixes https://github.com/git-for-windows/git/issues/2466.

Makes sense.  No tests?

Do we really need tests here? ;-)

Honestly, I would deem the likelihood of this to get broken again very
low, and the effort for writing a regression test relatively high...

If you insist, I will add some, of course, but not today.

Ciao,
