Hello, the log and rev-parse commands both support the rev^@ syntax which stands for all parents of rev. The log command also supports ^rev^@ to exclude all of the parents of rev, but rev-parse does not. Should this be fixed?
If so, the following patch would be a start. Thanks, Andreas -- rev-parse: Add support for ^rev^@ Add support for the ^rev^@ syntax to exclude all of the parents of rev. This syntax is already supported by git log.
