 How does it work?
 =================
 
-Darker takes a ``git diff`` of your Python files,
-records which lines of current files have been edited or added since the last commit.
-It then runs Black_ and notes which chunks of lines were reformatted.
-Finally, only those reformatted chunks on which edited lines fall (even partially)
-are applied to the edited file.
+To apply Black reformatting and to modernize format strings on changed lines,
+Darker does the following:
 
-Also, in case the ``--isort`` option was specified,
-isort_ is run on each edited file before applying Black_.
-Similarly, each linter requested using the `--lint <command>` option is run,
-and only those linting messages are displayed which appeared after the modifications to
-the source code files,
-or which were there already before but now fall on modified lines.
+- take a ``git diff`` of Python files between ``REV1`` and ``REV2`` as specified using
+  the ``--revision=REV1..REV2`` option
+- record current line numbers of lines edited or added between those revisions
+- run flynt_ on edited and added files (if Flynt is enabled by the user)
+- run Black_ on edited and added files
+- compare before and after reformat, noting each continuous chunk of reformatted lines
+- discard reformatted chunks on which no edited/added line falls on
+- keep reformatted chunks on which some edited/added lines fall on
+
+To sort imports when the ``--isort`` option was specified, Darker proceeds like this:
+
+- run isort_ on each edited and added file before applying Black_
+- only if any of the edited or added lines falls between the first and last line
+  modified by isort_, are those modifications kept
+- if all lines between the first and last line modified by isort_ were unchanged between
+  the revisions, discard import sorting modifications for that file
+
+For details on how linting support works, see Graylint_ documentation.
