NAME
----
gitrevisions - specifying revisions and ranges for Git

SYNOPSIS
--------
gitrevisions


DESCRIPTION
-----------

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").
