git format-patch actually takes a range of commits as an argument. Like this:

  git format-patch C1..C2

When you specify single commit `git format-patch C1` this is equivalent to:

  git format-patch C1..HEAD

So if you want to make the patch of single commit you can use following:

  git format-patch C1^..C1
