What is a revision range that doesn't resolve to commits?  Am I wrong
in thinking revision is nothing more than a synonym for commit?

When gitrevisions(7) says "A revision parameter <rev> typically, but
not necessarily, names a commit object", I suspect it is residue from
3a45f625 trying to apologize for the extended SHA1 syntax parser being
called "git rev-parse" instead of "git object-name-parse".
