-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 reachable from any of
-the commits given on the command line form a set, 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:
-
-ifdef::git-rev-list[]
------------------------------------------------------------------------
-$ git rev-list foo bar ^baz
------------------------------------------------------------------------
-endif::git-rev-list[]
-ifdef::git-log[]
------------------------------------------------------------------------
-$ git log foo bar ^baz
------------------------------------------------------------------------
-endif::git-log[]
-
-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 "^'<commit1>' '<commit2>'". For example, either of
-the following may be used interchangeably:
-
-ifdef::git-rev-list[]
------------------------------------------------------------------------
-$ git rev-list origin..HEAD
-$ git rev-list HEAD ^origin
------------------------------------------------------------------------
-endif::git-rev-list[]
-ifdef::git-log[]
------------------------------------------------------------------------
-$ git log origin..HEAD
-$ git log HEAD ^origin
------------------------------------------------------------------------
-endif::git-log[]
-
-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:
-
-ifdef::git-rev-list[]
------------------------------------------------------------------------
-$ git rev-list A B --not $(git merge-base --all A B)
-$ git rev-list A...B
------------------------------------------------------------------------
-endif::git-rev-list[]
-ifdef::git-log[]
------------------------------------------------------------------------
-$ git log A B --not $(git merge-base --all A B)
-$ git log A...B
------------------------------------------------------------------------
-endif::git-log[]
