Grammar plus a wrong word:

  This changeset adds a small mention of it in the help to prevent confusion. This
  small addition references online help that is easier to update and improve at
  release time.

Grammar, punctuation, spelling:

  Following Wagner Bruna's advice, this is added in a plain new paragraph to not
  invalidate current translation this close to the release.

Grammar, spacing, wording:

    For advanced usage, a third way is available through the ``--rev``
    option. It allows you to specify the precise set of changesets to
    rebase. See online documentation for details.

Also I would either drop the last sentence or include a direct
hyperlink to the wiki page in question.
