Subject: name for A..B ranges?
Date: Wed, 22 Jun 2016 08:25:59 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <0648000B273C412AB7140AE959EBC99A@PhilipOakley> (raw)
Hi,
Is there a common name for the A..B range format (two dots) that would
complement the A...B (three dots) symmetric range format's name?
I was looking at the --left-right distinctions and noticed that the trail
back to the symmetric range description was rather thin (it's buried within
gitrevisions:Specifying Ranges, and even then its called a symmetric
difference.
Philip
