rerere: Document 'rerere remaining'
This adds the 'remaining' command to the documentation of 'git rerere'. This command was added in ac49f5ca (Feb 16 2011; Martin von Zweigbergk <martin.von.zweigbergk@gmail.com>) but it was never documented. Touch up the other rerere commands to reduce noise. First noticed by Vincent van Ravesteijn. Signed-off-by: Phil Hord <phil.hord@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
