This is preparation for removing <commit>..<commit> from the
documentation, right?  It makes sense to add the ...  form since
there's no other way to spell it but I can't say I'm excited about
adding the .. form.  Especially since <tree>..<tree> doesn't work,
that form's a little embarrassing. ;-)

*checks the manpage*

Ah, this is to make the SYNOPSIS a better table of contents for the
DESCRIPTION (except that the DESCRIPTION treats "git diff --no-index
<path> <path>" before "git diff [<commit>] -- <pathspec>" while the
SYNOPSIS doesn't).  Maybe it would make sense to go all the way and
make the two follow the same order?

My 2ยข,
