Oh, I see. I was reading builtin-reflog.c, which, in both
cmd_reflog_expire and cmd_reflog_delete, does check for -n as
synonymous to --dry-run:
if (!strcmp(arg, "--dry-run") || !strcmp(arg, "-n"))
cb.dry_run = 1;
but I missed that 'reflog show' aliases for git-log, and that that
accepts -n.
Patch withdrawn -- I'd send one documenting that -n works for delete
and expire, but it'd probably just complicate the documentation more
than clarify anything.
