From: Ramkumar Ramachandra Date: Sat, 20 Apr 2013 11:45:12 GMT Subject: [PATCH 4/5] git-log.txt: rewrite note on why "--" may be required Message-ID: <1366458313-7186-5-git-send-email-artagnon@gmail.com> In-Reply-To: <1366458313-7186-1-git-send-email-artagnon@gmail.com> In its current form, the note talks about separating options from "branch names" and "refnames" in the same sentence. This is entirely inaccurate, as the rev spec need not be a set of branch names or ref names. Rewrite it to use the word "revisions".
