 OPTIONS
 -------
 --pretty::
 	Print the contents of the commit changesets in human-readable form.
 
+--header::
+	Print the contents of the commit in raw-format; each
+	record is separated with a NUL character.
+
 --objects::
 	Print the object IDs of any object referenced by the listed commits.
 	'git-rev-list --objects foo ^bar' thus means "send me all object IDs
 	which I need to download if I have the commit object 'bar', but
 	not 'foo'".
 
+--unpacked::
+	Only useful with `--objects`; print the object IDs that
+	are not in packs.
+
 --bisect::
 	Limit output to the one commit object which is roughly halfway
 	between the included and excluded commits. Thus, if 'git-rev-list

+--max-count::
+	Limit the number of commits output.
+
+--max-age=timestamp, --min-age=timestamp::
+	Limit the commits output to specified time range.
+
+--sparse::
+	When optional paths are given, the command outputs only
+	the commits that changes at least one of them, and also
+	ignores merges that do not touch the given paths.  This
+	flag makes the command output all eligible commits
+	(still subject to count and age limitation), but apply
+	merge simplification nevertheless.
+
+--remove-empty::
+	Stop when a given path disappears from the tree.
+
+--all::
+	Pretend as if all the refs in `$GIT_DIR/refs/` are
+	listed on the command line as <commit>.
+
+--topo-order::
+	By default, the commits are shown in reverse
+	chronological order.  This option makes them appear in
+	topological order (i.e. descendant commits are shown
+	before their parents).
+
 --merge-order::
 	When specified the commit history is decomposed into a unique
 	sequence of minimal, non-linear epochs and maximal, linear epochs.
