[PATCH] Documentation: pack-objects: Clarify --local's semantics.

From: Nelson Elhage <nelhage@mit.edu>
Date: Jan 7, 2010, 22:10 UTC
Message-ID: <1262902214-24977-1-git-send-email-nelhage@mit.edu>

The current documentation suggests that --local also ignores any objects in local packs, which is incorrect. Change the language to be clearer and more parallel to the other options that ignore objects.

While we're at it, fix a trivial error in --incremental's documentation.
