Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy 5a1dbd48bc commit: improve error message in "-a <paths>" case ...

I did something stupid today and got

    $ git commit -a --fixup= @^
    fatal: Paths with -a does not make sense.

which didn't make any sense (at least for the first few seconds).

Include the first path(spec) in the error message to help spot the
problem quicker. Now it shows

    fatal: paths '@^ ...' with -a does not make sense

which should ring some bell because @^ should clearly not be considered
a path.
