Reflog is a mechanism to record when the tip of branches are
Entries older than `expire` time, or entries older than
`expire-unreachable` time and are not reachable from the current
tip, are removed from the reflog. This is typically not used
-directly by the end users -- instead, see gitlink:git-gc[1].

The subcommand "show" (which is also the default, in the absence of any
subcommands) will take all the normal log options, and show the log of
the reference provided in the command-line (or `HEAD`, by default).
The reflog will cover all recent actions (HEAD reflog records branch switching
as well). It is an alias for 'git log -g --abbrev-commit --pretty=oneline';

The reflog is useful in various git commands, to specify the old value
of a reference. For example, `HEAD@\{2\}` means "where HEAD used to be
two moves ago", `master@\{one.week.ago\}` means "where master used to
-point to one week ago", and so on. See gitlink:git-rev-parse[1] for
+point to one week ago", and so on. See linkgit:git-rev-parse[1] for
more details.
+To delete single entries from the reflog, use the subcommand "delete"
+and specify the _exact_ entry (e.g. ``git reflog delete master@\{2\}'').
