[PATCH v2 2/2] show-branch: fix description of --date-order

From
Thomas Rast <trast@inf.ethz.ch>
Date

Message-ID
<20119b8c1bd92aa914d6d07d49f56f6df89d4baa.1374150389.git.trast@inf.ethz.ch>

The existing description reads as if it somehow applies a filter. Change it to explain that it is merely about the ordering.
