Each of the log entry records "this was before, and this is after the change". ref@{0} reads from the "after" field of 0-th (from the end) entry. ref@{1} reads from the "after" field of 1-st (again from the end) entry. ref@{N} reads from the "after" field of N-th (again from the end) entry. Notice that nowhere in the above sequence we read from "before" field. -- 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
