Subject: doc: fix the max number of branches shown by "show-branch"
X-Git-Tag: v2.46.0-rc1~24^2
X-Git-Url: http://git.ipfire.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=428c40da612454311469e9cf24a2105b944777a6;p=thirdparty%2Fgit.git

doc: fix the max number of branches shown by "show-branch"

The number to be displayed is calculated by the following defined in
object.h:

    #define REV_SHIFT        2
    #define MAX_REVS        (FLAG_BITS - REV_SHIFT)

FLAG_BITS is currently 28, so 26 is the correct number.
