We currently don't show any examples of using git-rev-list at all. Let's
add some pretty elementary examples. They likely seem obvious to anybody
who has worked with the tool for a while, but my purpose here is
two-fold:
- they may be enlightening to people who haven't used the tool a lot
to give a general flavor of how it is meant to be used
- they can serve as a starting point for adding more interesting
examples (we can do that without the basic ones, of course, but I
think it makes sense to show off the building blocks)
This set is far from exhaustive, but again, the purpose is to be a
starting point for further additions.

git-rev-list - Lists commit objects in reverse chronological order

SYNOPSIS

|
|
|
|
'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'.
