I think we should be able to use --left-right and ... operator
to express what the above cherry does with something like:

    $ git log --left-right --ignore-common-patch cvs-upstream...my-branch

--left-right is not documented, so I think it's hard for people (for
me at least) to follow your reasoning.

Would it be to much to ask for to want to have all options have some
kind of documentation?

Not at all.  I often wish that ;-)

As in not accepting patches for new options
that don't include documentation?

"git log -Sleft-right" will actually give me the documentation I want,
since the docs are written but only put in the commit message.

Fair enough.  Perhaps the list can help out ;-).
