Syntax and naming conventions

## Description

Lists the specified commits from the specified repo.

The full set of options:

`p4 graph log -n repo [ -u user ] [ -A date ] [ -B date ] [ -p ] [ -N minParents ]
[ -X maxParents ] [ --oneline[=tree] [--no-abbrev] ] [ -a | -m max ] commit ...`

## Options

Option | Description
--- | ---
`-a` | Display all commits (default is first 1000).
`-m max` | Display no more than max commits.
`-A date` | Display commits created after this date.
``-U author`` | Display commits created by this author.
`-N minParents` | Display commits having at least this many parents.
`-X maxParents` | Display commits having at most this many parents.
`-p` | Display commits following first parent only.
`-P` | Display commits that affect any file under this path and filter out any commits that are not on that path. For example, `p4 graph log -n //repo/repo1 -P //repo/repo1/dir2/...` ignores commits for `//repo/repo1/dir1/...` that do not affect `//repo/repo1/dir2/...`
`--oneline[=tree]` | Display one line per commit.
| The optional `tree` value for the `--oneline` option can be entered as: `--oneline=tree` to add a column in the output for tree-SHA-1 values
| The optional `no-abbrev` value for the `--oneline` option can be entered as: `--oneline --no-abbrev` to display SHA-1 values in the original 40 characters instead of the default 7 characters abbreviation.
| `--oneline=tree --no-abbrev` combines the two suboptions.
