I'd suggest a small rewording (with one comma and two "the"s inserted): "Whenever a non-wildcard = (equals) dependency is used on a package, the requested revision must be specified explicitly. When the zeroth revision is requested, ``-r0`` must be used. When no specific revision is necessary, the ~ (tilde) operator must be used instead."
