[PATCH v3 1/5] pull: rename pull.rename to pull.mode

From
Felipe Contreras <felipe.contreras@gmail.com>
Date
Sep 9, 2013, 01:23 UTC
Message-ID
<1378689796-19305-2-git-send-email-felipe.contreras@gmail.com>
In-Reply-To
<1378689796-19305-1-git-send-email-felipe.contreras@gmail.com>
Also 'branch.<name>.rebase' to 'branch.<name>.pullmode'.

This way 'pull.mode' can be set to 'merge', and the default can be something else.

The old configurations still work, but get deprecated.
