Junio C Hamano 70eb130768 Documentation: do not assume that n > 1 in <rev>~$n ...

We explained <rev>~<n> as <n>th generation grand-parent, but a reader got
confused by the "grand-" part when <n> is 1.

Reword it with "ancestor"; with the "generation" and "following only the
first parents" around there, what we try to describe should be clear
enough now.
