/**
- * Specifying revisions
- * --------------------
- * This section describes various ways to specify what revisions to
- * display or otherwise limit the view to.
+ * [[refspec]]
+ * Revision specification
+ * ----------------------
+ * This section describes various ways to specify what revisions to display
+ * or otherwise limit the view to. tig(1) does not itself parse the described
+ * revision options so refer to the relevant git man pages for futher
+ * information. Relevant man pages besides git-log(1) are git-diff(1) and
+ * git-rev-list(1).
+ *
+ * You can tune the interaction with git by making use of the options
+ * explained in this section. For example, by configuring the environment
+ * variables described in the <<view-commands, "View commands">> section.
+ *
+ * Limit by path name
+ * ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+ * If you are interested only in those revisions that made changes to a
+ * specific file (or even several files) list the files like this:
+ *
+ * $ tig log Makefile
+ *
+ * To avoid ambiguity with repository references such as tag name, be sure
+ * to separate file names from other git options using "\--". So if you
+ * have a file named 'master' it will clash with the reference named
+ * 'master', and thus you will have to use:
+ *
+ * $ tig log -- master
+ *
+ * NOTE: For the main view, avoiding ambiguity will in some cases require
+ * you to specify two "\--" options. The first will make tig(1) stop
+ * option processing and the latter will be passed to git log.
*
* Limit by date or number
* ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
* to show both for the log and main view. Either limit by date using
* e.g. `--since=1.month` or limit by the number of commits using `-n400`.
*
- * NOTE: You can tune the interaction with git by making use of the options
- * explained in this section.
+ * If you are only interested in changed that happened between two dates
+ * you can use:
*
- * NOTE: tig(1) does not itself parse the revision options
- * described in this section.
+ * $ tig -- --after=May.5th --before=2006-05-16.15:44
*
- * Ranges
- * ~~~~~~
+ * NOTE: The dot (".") is used as a separator instead of a space to avoid
+ * having to quote the option value. If you prefer use `--after="May 5th"`
+ * instead of `--after="May 5th"`.
+ *
+ * Limiting by commit ranges
+ * ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
* Alternatively, commits can be limited to a specific range, such as
* "all commits between 'tag-1.0' and 'tag-2.0'". For example:
*
* ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
* Git interprets the range specifier "tag-1.0..tag-2.0" as
* "all commits reachable from 'tag-2.0' but not from 'tag-1.0'".
+ * Where reachability refers to what commits are ancestors (or part of the
+ * history) of the branch or tagged revision in question.
+ *
* If you prefer to specify which commit to preview in this way use the
* following:
*
* it is possible to further prune commits by specifying multiple branch
* cut offs.
*
+ * Combining revisions specification
+ * ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+ * Revisions options can to some degree be combined, which makes it possible
+ * to say "show at most 20 commits from within the last month that changed
+ * files under the Documentation/ directory."
+ *
+ * $ tig -- --since=1.month -n20 -- Documentation/
+ *
+ * Examining all repository references
+ * ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+ * In some cases, it can be useful to query changes across all references
+ * in a repository. An example is to ask "did any line of development in
+ * this repository change a particular file within the last week". This
+ * can be accomplished using:
+ *
+ * $ tig -- --all --since=1.week -- Makefile
