Hello everyone,
I'm Mehul Jain. I'm looking for participating in GSoC 2016.
I've started work on a Microproject" Teach git pull --rebase the
--no-autostash" option. While looking at Git's source code I have made
following observation: In the pull.c file
1.  git_config_get_bool( , ) search in the configuration key for the
value of rebase.autostash, if found true then modify autostash's value
to a non-zero number and thus making a stash to encounter the problem
of dirty tree.
2. Here if in command line a flag "--no-autostash" is given then we
can easily set the value of autostash = 0 and thus killing the process
by die_on_unclean_work_tree(prefix).
Is my observation is right?

I'm new to open source projects and not much experienced at it. So please correct/comment on any mistake that I made while trying to put my point. I will also appreciate any comment/suggestion/criticism on my observation.

Thanks
