[PATCH v2 3/9] fetch doc: update note on '+' in front of the refspec

[Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>]

While it is not *wrong* per-se to say that pulling a rewound/rebased
branch will lead to an unnecessary merge conflict, that is not what
the leading "+" sign to allow non-fast-forward update of remote-tracking
branch is at all.
