The documentation for the <rev>^{<type>} syntax (e.g., v1.8.3.1^{tree}) needed some fixing, and while I was at it I thought I'd be pedantic about tree-ish. Oh, and let's welcome "committish" to the party!

-Richard
Richard Hansen (4):
  glossary: add 'treeish' as a synonym for 'tree-ish'
  glossary: define committish (a.k.a. commit-ish)
  glossary: more precise definition of tree-ish (a.k.a. treeish)
  revisions.txt: fix and clarify <rev>^{<type>}
