rev-parse: clarify documentation of $name@{upstream} syntax
"git rev-parse" interprets string in string@{upstream} as a name of
a branch not a ref. For example, refs/heads/master@{upstream} looks
for an upstream branch that is merged by git-pull to ref
refs/heads/refs/heads/master not to refs/heads/master.
However the documentation could mislead a user to believe that the
string is interpreted as ref.
