doc: document --overwrite-ignore
I added this option in git-checkout and git-merge in c1d7036b6b (checkout,merge: disallow overwriting ignored files with --no-overwrite-ignore - 2011-11-27) but did not remember to update documentation. This completes that commit. Signed-off-by: Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy <pclouds@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
