 See `try-completion' and `all-completions' for more details
  on completion, COLLECTION, and PREDICATE.
 
-If REQUIRE-MATCH is non-nil, the user is not allowed to exit unless
- the input is (or completes to) an element of COLLECTION or is null.
- If it is also not t, typing RET does not exit if it does non-null completion.
+REQUIRE-MATCH can take the following values:
+- t means that the user is not allowed to exit unless
+  the input is (or completes to) an element of COLLECTION or is null.
+- nil means that the user can exit with any input.
+- `confirm-only' means that the user can exit with any input, but she will
+  need to confirm her choice if the input is not an element of COLLECTION.
+- anything else behaves like t except that typing RET does not exit if it
+  does non-null completion.
+
 If the input is null, `completing-read' returns DEF, or an empty string
  if DEF is nil, regardless of the value of REQUIRE-MATCH.
