I happen to find it a reasonable way to present how a topic was
rewind and rebuilt, but I think that is I rewind my internal
topic (i.e. the parts that have not been merged into 'next' yet)
all the time.

This is not a 'git reflog' command, but is another way to show
the tips of reflog entries (use it with 'git show').  I find the
show-branch variant easier to see, but you can judge for
yourself.

This happens to show why pruning while not culling reflog
entries is a bad idea.  If your master@{2} is gone due to rewind
and prune, and master@{0}, master@{1} and master@{3} are still
available, the pattern master@{0..3} would not give you a usable
result.

This allows you to add between Nth and Mth (inclusive) reflog entries.
"git show master@{1} master@{2} master@{3}" is equivalent to
"git show master@{1..3}".
