I'd like the following terms to be added to and described in git glossary: Any takers?

topic branches::
pickaxe::
cherry pick:: (cherry picking)
refspec::
patch::
rev::
revert:: (commit)
fast-forward:: (branch)
annotate:: (blame)
symbolic ref::
BTW. it might be worth to take a look at 
  http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Revision_control#Vocabulary
and either expand git glossary, or correct Wikipedia entry.
