The last couple sentences seem reversed. It feels odd to have the bit
about --rebase dropped dead in the middle of the description of
--autostash and --no-autostash. I'd have expected to see --autostash
and --no-autostash discussed together, and then, as a follow-on,
mention them being valid only with --rebase.

In patch 1/2, this changed from 'if (autostash)' to 'if
(config_autostash)'; it's a bit sad that patch 2/2 then has to touch
the same code to change it yet again, this time to 'if
(opt_autostash)'. Have you tried just keeping the original 'autostash'
variable and modifying its value based upon config_autostash and
opt_autostash instead? (Not saying that this would be better, but
interested in knowing if the result is as clean or cleaner or worse.)

How about formatting this as a normal 'else if'?
} else if (opt_autostash != -1)
On the other hand, this error case hanging off the 'rebase'
conditional is somewhat more difficult to reason about than perhaps it
ought to be. It might be easier to see what's going on if you get the
error case out of the way early, and then handle the normal case. That
is, something like this:
if (!opt_rebase && opt_autostash != -1)
die(_("... is only valid with --rebase"));
if (opt_rebase) {
...
}
