rebase: improve error message when upstream argument is missing
Strip out options before checking for a missing upstream argument.
Before:
$ git rebase -m
shift: 426: can't shift that many
After:
$ git rebase -m
Usage: git rebase ...
While at it, fix the usage message to explain that the upstream
argument is mandatory.
