From: Kristoffer Haugsbakk <redacted>

There is no documentation for `--contained`.

Start by copying the text from `replay_options` in `builtin/
replay.c`. But some people think that the existing text is a
bit unclear; what does it mean for a branch to be contained
in a revision range? Let’s include the implied commits here:
the branches that point at commits in the range.

Also use “update” instead of “advance”. “Update” is the verb
commonly used in this context.

Notes (series):
    v2:
    
    Don’t just copy `--contained` over. Improve it on both sites after discussing
    with reviewers.
    
    Also mention that `--onto` is required.
