Heh, I think this is a leftover from 33e8fc874 (usage: do not insist
that standard input must come from a file, 2015-10-16).
Before then, the usage at the top said something like:
git patch-id < <patch>
and this "parameter" made sense. But after, we just talk about stdin in
the text, and mentioning "<patch>" is simply confusing.
I looked through the other documentation touched by 33e8fc874 to see if
there were other cases of this same problem, but I think this is the
only one.
