|  | NAME | 
|  | ---- | 
|  | gitrevisions - Specifying revisions and ranges for Git | 
|  |  | 
|  | SYNOPSIS | 
|  | -------- | 
|  | gitrevisions | 
|  |  | 
|  |  | 
|  | DESCRIPTION | 
|  | ----------- | 
|  |  | 
|  | Many Git commands take revision parameters as arguments. Depending on | 
|  | the command, they denote a specific commit or, for commands which | 
|  | walk the revision graph (such as linkgit:git-log[1]), all commits which are | 
|  | reachable from that commit. For commands that walk the revision graph one can | 
|  | also specify a range of revisions explicitly. | 
|  |  | 
|  | In addition, some Git commands (such as linkgit:git-show[1] and | 
|  | linkgit:git-push[1]) can also take revision parameters which denote | 
|  | other objects than commits, e.g. blobs ("files") or trees | 
|  | ("directories of files"). |
