For 'bzr diff' and 'bzr merge' -r X..Y means give me the changes from Y
versus X.
For 'bzr log' it means show me everything from X to Y (inclusive).

It is one of the inconsistencies, but IMO it has the most obvious
meaning for both diff/merge and log. (Diff should show you what merge
would do, log is just giving you a list of revisions.)
