I don't know.  Would there be any advantage at all to changing the
output format of the tool?  Bad idea.

If the goal is to avoid confusion, perhaps a note in the documentation
would help.

Is "script that wants to list which revs to bundle, possibly exceeding
the command-line length limit" not enough of a use case?  Yes, I think
it is very much worth fixing.

Thanks for looking at this.
