git-log.txt: rewrite note on why "--" may be required
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
In its current form, the note talks about separating options from
"branch names" and "refnames" in the same sentence.  This is entirely
inaccurate, as <revision range> need not be a set of branch names or
ref names.  Rewrite it to use the word "revision range", to be
consistent with the SYNOPSIS.
