I rechecked and didn't find any other mis-references. Some commit limiting options mention commit formatters like "--pretty", but I deem that to be okay without an explicit "see below".

Well, can be considered bugfix, but not a regression fix.

...with a little less magic suggested now (act on single no-walk rev only).
