If the commit specified as the bottom of the commit range has a direct parent that has another child commit that contributed to the resulting history, "rev-list --ancestry-path" was confused and listed that side history as well. D---E / \ ---X---A---B---C In this history, "rev-list --ancestry-path A..C" should list among what the corresponding command without --ancestry-path option would produce, namely, D, E, B and C, but limiting the result to those that are descendant of A (i.e. B and C). Due to the command line parser subtlety corrected by the previous commit, it also listed those that are descendant of X as well.
