At this point, unfortunately I think we need to call that a
documentation bug.  The "output" it refers to is output from the
"diff" portion, not the "poor-man's log" portion, of the program,
where diff-tree was the workhorse behind scripted "git log" that
gave the commit object name as the preamble for each commit it
shows information about.
