The point of these sections is generally to:
1. Give credit where it is due.
2. Give the reader an idea of where to ask questions or
file bug reports.
But they don't do a good job of either case. For (1), they
are out of date and incomplete. A much more accurate answer
can be gotten through shortlog or blame. For (2), the
correct contact point is generally git@vger, and even if you
wanted to cc the contact point, the out-of-date and
incomplete fields mean you're likely sending to somebody
useless.
So let's drop the fields entirely from all manpages except
git(1) itself. We already point people to the mailing list
for bug reports there, and we can update the Authors section
to give credit to the major contributors and point to
shortlog and blame for more information.
Each page has a "This is part of git" footer, so people can
follow that to the main git manpage.

DESCRIPTION
|
|
-----------
|
|
|
|
List commits that are reachable by following the `parent` links from the
|
|
given commit(s), but exclude commits that are reachable from the one(s)
|
|
given with a '{caret}' in front of them. The output is given in reverse
|
|
chronological order by default.
|
|
|
|
You can think of this as a set operation. Commits given on the command
|
|
line form a set of commits that are reachable from any of them, and then
|
|
commits reachable from any of the ones given with '{caret}' in front are
|
|
subtracted from that set. The remaining commits are what comes out in the
|
|
command's output. Various other options and paths parameters can be used
|
|
to further limit the result.
|
|
|
|
Thus, the following command:
|
|
|
|
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
|
|
$ git rev-list foo bar ^baz
|
|
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
means "list all the commits which are reachable from 'foo' or 'bar', but
|
|
not from 'baz'".
|
|
|
|
A special notation "'<commit1>'..'<commit2>'" can be used as a
|
|
short-hand for "{caret}'<commit1>' '<commit2>'". For example, either of
|
|
the following may be used interchangeably:
|
|
|
|
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
|
|
$ git rev-list origin..HEAD
|
|
$ git rev-list HEAD ^origin
|
|
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
Another special notation is "'<commit1>'...'<commit2>'" which is useful
|
|
for merges. The resulting set of commits is the symmetric difference
|
|
between the two operands. The following two commands are equivalent:
|
|
|
|
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
|
|
$ git rev-list A B --not $(git merge-base --all A B)
|
|
$ git rev-list A...B
|
|
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
'rev-list' is a very essential git command, since it
|
|
provides the ability to build and traverse commit ancestry graphs. For
|
|
this reason, it has a lot of different options that enables it to be
|
|
used by commands as different as 'git bisect' and
|
|
'git repack'.
