Hi Victoria,

Victoria Dye [off-list ref] writes:

Update the 'for-each-ref' builtin documentation to clarify that refs
"omitted" by --omit-empty are still counted toward the limit specified
by --count. The use of the term "omit" would otherwise be somewhat
ambiguous and could incorrectly be construed as excluding empty refs
entirely (i.e. not counting them towards the total ref count).

I implemented --omit-empty and I completely overlooked --count!

(If I were to do it all over again I probably would have implemented it
so that so-called omitted refs did not count towards the total. It makes
sense to me since e.g.  `git log -3 -- git.c` prints the three most
recent commits that touch git.c regardless of how many commits were
walked in the process.)

This is a good and welcome clarification.
