Hi Junio, this is my quick attempt at a patch for the man page.

In $gmane/260837 the --assume-unchanged flag was reported as buggy because of a misunderstanding about what it is being promised.

This patch looks to be more assertive in stating what promise is being made.
While at it correct a confusing pluralisation of the option.
