[PATCH] doc: mention 'git show' defaults to HEAD

2018-01-28 Thread Todd Zullinger
When 'git show' is called without any object it defaults to HEAD. This has been true since d4ed9793fd ("Simplify common default options setup for built-in log family.", 2006-04-16). The SYNOPSIS suggests that the object argument is required. Clarify that it is not required and note the default.
