If rebase.autoStash configuration variable is set, there is no way to override it for "git pull --rebase" from the command line. Teach "git pull --rebase" the --[no]autostash command line flag which overrides the current value of rebase.autostash, if set. As "git rebase" understands the --[no]autostash option, it's just a matter of passing the option to underlying "git rebase" when "git pull --rebase" is called.
