git-update-index.txt: reword possibly confusing example
The following phrase could be interpreted multiple ways:
"To pretend you have a file with mode and sha1 at path"
In particular, I can think of two:
1. Pretend we have some new file, which happens to have a given mode
and sha1
2. Pretend one of the files we are already tracking has a different
mode and sha1 than what it really does
I think people could easily assume either case while reading, but the
example command provided doesn't actually handle the first case, which
caused some minor frustration to at least one user. Modify the example
command so that it correctly handles both cases, and re-order the
wording in a way that makes it more likely folks will assume the first
interpretation. I believe the new example shouldn't pose any obstacles
to those wanting the second interpretation (at worst, they pass an
unnecessary extra flag).
