USAGE="<commit range> <commit-ish> [commit-ish...]"
LONG_USAGE="COMMIT RANGE
    A commit range is usually specified as <older commitish>..<newer commitish>

COMMIT-ISH
    A commit-ish is anything which can recursively be resolved to a commit; see 'gitglossary(7)'.

EXAMPLE
    git is-in-range HEAD~4..HEAD~2 HEAD~5 HEAD~4 HEAD~3 HEAD~2 HEAD~1
    < HEAD~5
    = HEAD~4
    = HEAD~3
    = HEAD~2
    > HEAD~1
