For what command?

I believe there is "--revision branch:../path/to/another", but I don't
believe it lets you specify a revision number.

If you are doing something like pull or branch, then I think --revision
is interpreted as the remote revision number, and not the local one.

You are right, though, it should probably be an actual document, as to
what prefixes are currently implemented.

At present, you just have to read bzrlib/revisionspec.py
