| gitrevisions - Specifying revisions and ranges for Git |
| Many Git commands take revision parameters as arguments. Depending on |
| the command, they denote a specific commit or, for commands which |
| walk the revision graph (such as linkgit:git-log[1]), all commits which are |
| reachable from that commit. For commands that walk the revision graph one can |
| also specify a range of revisions explicitly. |
| In addition, some Git commands (such as linkgit:git-show[1]) also take |
| revision parameters which denote other objects than commits, e.g. blobs |
| ("files") or trees ("directories of files"). |
