rebase: remove second broken synopsis line (issue3172) Displaying multiple synopsis in online help has been broken since Matt RST refactoring, around ff26712a0c50. Rebase help is apparently the only one using this trick, just drop the second synopsis and assume people will understand as with graft help.

Mercurial
=========

Mercurial is a fast, easy to use, distributed revision control tool
for software developers.

Basic install:

 $ make            # see install targets
 $ make install    # do a system-wide install
 $ hg debuginstall # sanity-check setup
 $ hg              # see help

Running without installing:

 $ make local      # build for inplace usage
 $ ./hg --version  # should show the latest version

See http://mercurial.selenic.com/ for detailed installation
instructions, platform-specific notes, and Mercurial user information.
