24162e64040e89f174531fa78fc0ff43c3a67da4 by Abseil Team <absl-team@google.com>:

Make ABSL_RETIRED_FLAG behave consistently with ABSL_FLAG.

Before the change:
ABSL_RETIRED_FLAG does not compile when there are competing ctors in the type, even when ABSL_FLAG does.

After the change:
ABSL_RETIRED_FLAG compiles when ABSL_FLAG does.

 // when a message is logged at severity `kFatal`; the other levels have no
 // special semantics.

+// Values other than the four defined levels (e.g. produced by `static_cast`)
+// are valid, but their semantics when passed to a function, macro, or flag
+// depend on the function, macro, or flag. The usual behavior is to normalize
+// such values to a defined severity level, however in some cases values other
+// than the defined levels are useful for comparison.
+//
+// Exmaple:
+//
+//   // Effectively disables all logging:
+//   SetMinLogLevel(static_cast<absl::LogSeverity>(100));

+// absl::LogSeverity Flag String Representation
+//
+// An `absl::LogSeverity` has a string representation used for parsing
+// command-line flags based on the enumerator name (e.g. `kFatal`) or
+// its unprefixed name (without the `k`) in any case-insensitive form. (E.g.
+// "FATAL", "fatal" or "Fatal" are all valid.) Unparsing such flags produces an
+// unprefixed string representation in all caps (e.g. "FATAL") or an integer.
 //
-// The parser accepts arbitrary integers (as if the type were `int`).  It also
-// accepts each named enumerator, without regard for case, with or without the
-// leading 'k'.  For example: "kInfo", "INFO", and "info" all parse to the value
-// `absl::LogSeverity::kInfo`.
+// Additionally, the parser accepts arbitrary integers (as if the type were
+// `int`).
+//
+// Examples:
+//
+//   --my_log_level=kInfo
+//   --my_log_level=INFO
+//   --my_log_level=info
+//   --my_log_level=0
 //
 // Unparsing a flag produces the same result as `absl::LogSeverityName()` for
 // the standard levels and a base-ten integer otherwise.
