Because these constructs can be used to parse user input to be passed to rev-list --objects, e.g. range=$(git rev-parse v1.0..v2.0) && git rev-list --objects $range | git pack-objects --stdin the endpoints (v1.0 and v2.0 in the example) are shown without peeling them to underlying commits, even when they are annotated tags. Make sure it stays that way. While at it, ensure "rev-parse A...B" also keeps the endpoints A and B unpeeled, even though the negative side (i.e. the merge-base between A and B) has to become a commit.
