I think git-shortlog.txt already includes rev-list-options, but the date
parts are omitted because there's an ifndef::git-shortlog[] around the
whole "commit formatting" section.

Should we just be loosening the ifndef here?

I think we _could_ include more of the "formatting" section overall, but
it looks like we have a custom mention of "--format" in
git-shortlog.txt, which I think is a better solution anyway. Maybe we
should just do the same with `--date`?
