The "reflog selector" format changes based on a series of heuristics, and that applies equally to both stock "log -g" output, as well as "--format=%gd". The documentation for "%gd" doesn't cover this. Let's mention the multiple formats and refer the user back to the "-g" section for the complete rules.
