I think this should also mention that most backends will interpret
PATTERN as a regular expression. Something like this:
"Search the log of changes for PATTERN.
PATTERN is usually interpreted as a regular expression. However, its
exact semantics is up to the backend's log search command; some can
only match fixed strings."
