 DESCRIPTION
@@ -37,6 +39,14 @@ not in 'baz'".
 A special notation <commit1>..<commit2> can be used as a
 short-hand for {caret}<commit1> <commit2>.
 
+Another special notation is <commit1>...<commit2> which is useful for
+merges.  The resulting set of commits is the symmetric difference
+between the two operands.  The following two commands are equivalent:

+------------
+$ git-rev-list A B --not $(git-merge-base --all A B)
+$ git-rev-list A...B
