[PATCH v5 11/12] doc: revisions: show revision expansion in examples

From: Philip Oakley <hidden>
Date: 2016-08-12 07:09:34
Subsystem: documentation, the rest · Maintainers: Jonathan Corbet, Linus Torvalds

The revisions examples show the revison arguments and the selected
commits, but do not show the intermediate step of the expansion of
the special 'range' notations. Extend the examples, including an
all-parents multi-parent merge commit example.

Sort the examples and fix the alignment for those unaffected
in the next commit.
