The request, printed to the standard output, -begins with the branch description, summarizes -the changes, and indicates from where they can be pulled. - -The upstream project is expected to have the commit named by -`<start>` and the output asks it to integrate the changes you made -since that commit, up to the commit named by `<end>`, by visiting -the repository named by `<URL>`. - - -OPTIONS -------- --p:: - Include patch text in the output. - -<start>:: - Commit to start at.
