This is the part of the Emacs manual (under "7.10 Numeric Arguments")
that describes how a prefix argument changes the meaning of a command
like C-r:
Some commands care whether there is an argument, but ignore its
value. For example, the command ‘M-q’ (‘fill-paragraph’) fills text;
with an argument, it justifies the text as well. (*Note Filling::, for
more information on ‘M-q’.) For these commands, it is enough to specify
the argument with a single ‘C-u’.
