revset: add explanation about the pattern without explicit kind Before this patch, online help of "adds()", "contains()", "filelog()", "file()", "modifies()" and "removes()" predicates doesn't explain about how the pattern without explicit kind like "glob:" is treated, even though each predicates treat it differently: - as "relpath:" by "adds()", "modifies()" and "removes()" - as "glob:" by "file()" - as special by "contains()" and "filelog()" - be relative to cwd, and - match against a file exactly ("relpath:" matches also against a directory) This may confuse users. This patch adds explanation about the pattern without explicit kind to these predicates.

When Mercurial accepts more than one revision, they may be specified
individually, or provided as a topologically continuous range,
separated by the ":" character.
The syntax of range notation is [BEGIN]:[END], where BEGIN and END are
revision identifiers. Both BEGIN and END are optional. If BEGIN is not
specified, it defaults to revision number 0. If END is not specified,
it defaults to the tip. The range ":" thus means "all revisions".
If BEGIN is greater than END, revisions are treated in reverse order.
A range acts as a closed interval. This means that a range of 3:5
gives 3, 4 and 5. Similarly, a range of 9:6 gives 9, 8, 7, and 6.
