Should users be warned if both pull.rebase and pull.mode are set?  (Also
if both branch.<name>.rebase and branch.<name>.pullmode are set.)

Hmm, thinking about it more, I think I prefer it to *not* warn if both
are set (as is currently coded).  If the user set *mode then presumably
they've read the documentation and know that *mode is the right way to
configure the behavior, so a warning would only serve to badger them
into cleaning up their config file.  And it would annoy users that keep
their ~/.gitconfig in a dotfiles repo shared between machines with
different versions of Git.

I prefer a deprecation note in the documentation as Philip suggests, but
I'm OK without one too.
