Both BEGIN and END are optional. If BEGIN is not +specified, it defaults to revision number 0. If END is not specified, +it defaults to the tip. The range ":" thus means "all revisions". + +If BEGIN is greater than END, revisions are treated in reverse order. + +A range acts as a closed interval. This means that a range of 3:5 +gives 3, 4 and 5. Similarly, a range of 9:6 gives 9, 8, 7, and 6.
