[PATCH v2] Use reflog in 'pull --rebase . foo'

Since c85c792 (pull --rebase: be cleverer with rebased upstream branches, 2008-01-26), "git pull --rebase" has used the reflog to try to rebase from the old upstream onto the new upstream.

Make this work if the local repository is explicitly passed on the command line as in 'git pull --rebase . foo'.
