Subject: [PATCH] Documentation: git-rev-list's "patterns"
Date: Sat, 19 May 2007 01:21:53 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20070518232153.13058.30392.stgit@rover> (raw)

git-rev-list(1) talks about patterns as values for the
--grep, --committed etc. parameters, without going into detail.
This patch mentions that these patterns are actually regexps.
