Note that case differs here, but it's the English one that doesn't fit the pattern -- option descriptions usually start with lowercase.

You don't have "revision" in the glossary[1] yet. Wouldn't it be appropriate to treat it as "commit", and translate as "Version" to avoid introducing yet another term?

Or am I missing some subtle distinction between commit and revision?
Since it's only a single nit, feel free to add my ack when you reroll:
