Documentation/git-pull: clarify configuration

Browse Source 
The sentence about 'branch.<name>.rebase' refers to the first sentence
in the paragraph and not to the sentence about avoiding rebasing
non-local changes. Clarify this.

--rebase::
Instead of a merge, perform a rebase after fetching. If
there is a remote ref for the upstream branch, and this branch
was rebased since last fetched, the rebase uses that information
to avoid rebasing non-local changes. To make this the default
for branch `<name>`, set configuration `branch.<name>.rebase`
to `true`.
Rebase the current branch on top of the upstream branch after
fetching. If there is a remote-tracking branch corresponding to
the upstream branch and the upstream branch was rebased since last
fetched, the rebase uses that information to avoid rebasing
non-local changes.

See `branch.<name>.rebase` in linkgit:git-config[1] if you want to make
`git pull` always use `{litdd}rebase` instead of merging.

[NOTE]
This is a potentially _dangerous_ mode of operation.
