git-svn: remove the 'rebuild' command and make the functionality automatic
Since refs/remotes/* are not automatically cloned, we expect the
user to be capable of copying those references themselves
anyways.
Also removed the documentation for --ignore-nodate while we're
at it; it has also been made automatic.
