Please read the "gitrevisions" manual page. More precisely, the A..B notation means "All commits reachable from B excluding those reachable from A". A merge means that two lines of history (those ending with commits b724cc1 and 51bfd29, respectively) are merged together. Writing this as b724cc1..51bfd29 is incorrect and confusing for the readers. > The question is how could I *onlys* through > 0e93b4b304ae052ba1bc73f6d34a68556fe93429 to get the formated patch for > the commit(b724cc1..51bfd29) This phrase again missies a predicate (a verb) so we consistently fail to comprehend your intent. You could try to find a colleague with a bit better English skill and ask his/her to provide a better translation so we're able to understan it. Also try to get rid of that ".." notation as it seems to ruin your attempts to get us understand the matter. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
