Bug Description

FEATURE REQUEST

Limiting the log output to most recent N entries is a very frequent action run in daily basis. This operation would be even more convenient if the head(1) and tail(1) style shortcut was possible: interpret any "-NUMBER" option as if were "--limit=NUMBER". An example:

  bzr log -5
  bzr log -15

RELATED

The 'bzr help log' reads

Usage: bzr log [FILE...]
  -l N, --limit=N Limit the output to the first N revisions.
