 <commit>::
        Commit to revert.

+       "SPECIFYING REVISIONS" section in gitlink:git-rev-parse[1].
 
 -e|--edit::
        With this option, `git-revert` will let you edit the commit
        message prior committing the revert. This is the default if
        you run the command from a terminal.
 
+-m parent-number|--mainline parent-number::
+       Usually you cannot revert a merge because you do not know which
+       side of the merge should be considered the mainline.  This
+       option specifies the parent number (starting from 1) of
+       the mainline and allows revert to reverse the change
+       relative to the specified parent.
+
 --no-edit::
        With this option, `git-revert` will not start the commit
        message editor.
