Fixed some grammatical errors in git-rebase.txt documentation.
Generally, the dependent clause "for example" is suffixed with a comma. Used present tense where appropriate to be consistent with the other paragraphs. Rewrote the paragraph in the second hunk to be more clear. Signed-off-by: Garry Dolley <gdolley@ucla.edu> Signed-off-by: Shawn O. Pearce <spearce@spearce.org>
