This works similarly to `svn update` or 'git-pull' except that
it preserves linear history with 'git-rebase' instead of
-'git-merge' for ease of dcommiting with 'git-svn'.

This accepts all options that 'git-svn fetch' and 'git-rebase'
accept. However, '--fetch-all' only fetches from the current

If you use `git svn set-tree A..B` to commit several diffs and you do
not have the latest remotes/git-svn merged into my-branch, you should
use `git svn rebase` to update your work branch instead of `git pull` or
-`git merge`. `pull`/`merge' can cause non-linear history to be flattened
+`git merge`. `pull`/`merge` can cause non-linear history to be flattened
when committing into SVN, which can lead to merge commits reversing
previous commits in SVN.
