This fixes a bug in the assistant introduced by the literal pathspec changes in version 5.20150406.
git-checkignore refuses to work if any pathspec options are set. Urgh. I audited the rest of git, and no other commands used by git-annex have such limitations. Indeed, AFAICS, *all* other commands support --literal-pathspecs. So, worked around this where git-checkignore is called.
