manual: Fix example finding commits referencing given content.
If I'm handed a file, then it typically lives outside the
working directory. git-log only operates on in-tree files,
so the first 'filename' should be an in-tree one, or it should
look at all files. This patch does the latter, so it would
also find renamed files. However, it is also slower.
