This is a nice observation. As current patch allow "git pull --autostash"
to be run without --rebase if pull.rebase=true, hence correct
documentation should be something like this
This option is only valid when "--rebase" is used or pull.rebase=true.
But OTOH users who knows about pull.rebase understands that
pull.rebase=true means "git pull --rebase ..." will be executed whenever
"git pull ..." is called, thus for those users it might be easy to deduce that
need of "--rebase" for validity of "--autostash" is not necessary if
pull.rebase=true.
I will correct it in the re-roll.
Thanks,
Mehul
