Thanks for the review @slim-bean! I'd like to wait for @Dieterbe to give this a look before I merge so we get a non-Loki dev's opinion on it. |

Outdated
| the performed query and its results. Raw log lines (i.e., without a | ||
| label and timestamp) can be retrieved by passing the "-o raw" flag. | ||
| The extra information about the query (API URL, set of common labels, | ||
| excluded labels) can be suppressed with the --query flag. |
There was a problem hiding this comment.
"log line" vs "raw log line" is ambiguous. are they the same thing?
can you structure this information more? that would make this clearer I think
maybe something like:
- log line: contains what exactly? only the output lines from the app?
- log entry: timestamp + labels + log line
query output:
- default: log entries + query metadata + result metadata
-o rawto show log lines rather than log entries--query(you probably meant--quiethere!) to surpress query metadata and result metadata

Sorry for the delay @Dieterbe, PTAL at the changes. I didn't sync logcli.md with the flag changes yet, but I'll do that once you think the changes look good. |

This commit attempts to do two things: 1. Differentiate between log entries and raw log lines, where the latter is what is produced by `-oraw`. 2. Explain the difference between `logcli query` and `logcli instant-query`. Fixes grafana#1676.
This commit leaves logcli.md unmodified; that will be done in a later commit if the changes are approved.
