git-log.txt: generalize <since>..<until>
'<since>..<until>' is misleading, as there are many other forms that 'git log' can accept as an argument. Replace it with <revision range>, referring to the section "Specifying Ranges" in revisions.txt, and rewrite the section appropriately.

<since>..<until>::
|

Show only commits between the named two commits. When
|

either <since> or <until> is omitted, it defaults to
|

`HEAD`, i.e. the tip of the current branch.

and <until>, see linkgit:gitrevisions[7].
|
||||
<revision range>::
|
||||
Show only commits in the specified revision range. When no
|
||||
<revision range> is specified, it defaults to `HEAD` (i.e. the
|
||||
whole history leading to the current commit). `origin..HEAD`
|
||||
specifies all the commits reachable from the current commit
|
||||
(i.e. `HEAD`), but not from `origin`. For a complete list of
|
||||
ways to spell <revision range>, see the "Specifying Ranges"

section of linkgit:gitrevisions[7].
