The goal of --end-of-options is to prevent parsing all future items as options, so if someone specifies a revision starting with a dash, we don't end up with it being interpreted as an option. Removing this constraint could end up resulting in potential security issues, which this option was introduced to protect against. If you want to specify this form, you can write this: git rev-list --oneline refs/heads/rev2 --not refs/heads/rev1 -- brian m. carlson (he/him or they/them) Toronto, Ontario, CA
