rebase: mention --rev in the help This changeset adds a small mention of it in the help to prevent confusion. This small addition references online help that is easier to update and improve at release time. Following Wagner Bruna's advice, this is added in a plain new paragraph to not invalidate current translation this close to the release.

r9999 Some commands allow the user to specify a date, e.g.:
- backout, commit, import, tag: Specify the commit date.
- log, revert, update: Select revision(s) by date.
Many date formats are valid. Here are some examples:
- ``Wed Dec 6 13:18:29 2006`` (local timezone assumed)
- ``Dec 6 13:18 -0600`` (year assumed, time offset provided)
- ``Dec 6 13:18 UTC`` (UTC and GMT are aliases for +0000)
- ``Dec 6`` (midnight)
- ``13:18`` (today assumed)
- ``3:39`` (3:39AM assumed)
- ``3:39pm`` (15:39)
- ``2006-12-06 13:18:29`` (ISO 8601 format)
- ``2006-12-6 13:18``
- ``2006-12-6``
- ``12-6``
- ``12/6``
- ``12/6/6`` (Dec 6 2006)
Lastly, there is Mercurial's internal format:
- ``1165432709 0`` (Wed Dec 6 13:18:29 2006 UTC)

help/dates: rephrase explanation of internal format...
r13882 This is the internal representation format for dates. The first number
is the number of seconds since the epoch (1970-01-01 00:00 UTC). The
second is the offset of the local timezone, in seconds west of UTC
(negative if the timezone is east of UTC).

- ``DATE to DATE`` - a date range, inclusive
- ``-DAYS`` - within a given number of days of today
