* Browse changes in a git repository. Additionally, tig(1) can also act
* as a pager for output of various git commands.
*
- * Commit limiting
- * ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
- * To speed up interaction with git, you can limit the amount of commits
- * 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`.
- *
- * Alternatively, commits can be limited to a specific range, such as
- * "all commits between tag-1.0 and tag-2.0". For example:
- *
- * $ tig log tag-1.0..tag-2.0
- *
- * Git interprets this as "all commits reachable from commit-2
- * but not from commit-1". The above can also be written:
- *
- * $ tig log tag-2.0 ^tag-1.0
- *
- * You can think of '^' as a negator. Using this alternate syntax,
- * it is possible to furthur prune commits by specifying multiple
- * negators.
+ * When browsing repositories, tig(1) uses the underlying git commands
+ * to present the user with various views, such as summarized commit log
+ * and showing the commit with the log message, diffstat, and the diff.
*
- * This way of commit limiting makes it trivial to only browse the commit
- * which hasn't been pushed to a remote branch. Assuming origin is your
- * upstream remote branch, using:
- *
- * $ tig log origin..HEAD
- *
- * Optionally, with "HEAD" left out, will list what will be pushed to
- * the remote branch.
- *
- * See the section on environment variables, on how to further tune the
- * interaction with git.
+ * Using tig(1) as a pager, it will display input from stdin and try
+ * to colorize it.

/**
+ * [[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 speed up interaction with git, you can limit the amount of commits
+ * 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`.
+ *
+ * If you are only interested in changed that happened between two dates
+ * you can use:
+ *
+ * $ tig -- --after=May.5th --before=2006-05-16.15:44
+ *
+ * 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:
+ *
+ * $ tig log tag-1.0..tag-2.0
+ *
+ * This way of commit limiting makes it trivial to only browse the commits
+ * which haven't been pushed to a remote branch. Assuming 'origin' is your
+ * upstream remote branch, using:
+ *
+ * $ tig log origin..HEAD
+ *
+ * will list what will be pushed to the remote branch. Optionally, the ending
+ * 'HEAD' can be left out since it is implied.
+ *
+ * Limiting by reachability
+ * ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+ * 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:
+ *
+ * $ tig log tag-2.0 ^tag-1.0
+ *
+ * You can think of '^' as a negation operator. Using this alternate syntax,
+ * 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
+ *
