Subject: [PATCH] shortlog: remove range check

From: René Scharfe <[email-masked]>
Date: Tue, 28 Nov 2006 22:49:17 +0100

Don't force the user to specify more than one revision parameter,
thus making git-shortlog behave more like git-log.
'git-shortlog master' will now produce the expected results; the
other end of the range simply is the (oldest) root commit.
