Copying and pasting examples literally is dangerous. You should know what you

"..." is a revision range that computes the mergebase between HEAD and HEAD,
which is (surprise!) HEAD, and then includes the two end points, but excludes
everything below the mergebase. So, the revision specification that your
command ends up with is

      HEAD HEAD ^HEAD ^67d9d9 f70bf4

Which is empty if f70bf4 is an ancestor of HEAD.
[LU Chuck] Sorry, I can't understand this part, did you have an documentation about the explanation for ...?

          "computes the mergebase between HEAD and HEAD" I have no idea about this. And you also talked about mergebase, but in my situation, there is only one branch with 5 commits. I did not have a mergebase.
          You can check the detail description below.
When there is no specific revisions around the three dots then HEAD is assumed (to save typing)
