Typo.

Note: this is not mandatory. You can actually delete the file in
any way you like, like plain old `rm`, as long as you update the
index to denote this, eg. with `git add -u`. Using `git rm` just
integrates both parts of the process into a single step.

*cough* *sputter* Whuh…? No, it uses `git merge`. Of course you
can tell `git pull` to rebase using the `--rebase` switch, but
this is explicit, as it should be, because rebasing rewrites
history, whereas merging does not.
