Currently --rebase without argument overrides pull.rebase:

  git config pull.rebase merges
  git pull --rebase

Up until now this hasn't been a big issue, since user has not been
forced to specify a merge, or a rebase. But with the introduction of
--merge and pull.mode, the user could in theory have the following
configuration:

  git config pull.mode merge
  git config pull.rebase merges

In such case, the user would expect:

  git pull --rebase

To be the same as:

  git pull --rebase=merges

If the user wants to override the configuration, she can do:

  git pull --rebase=true
