The first illustration of the "RECOVERING FROM UPSTREAM REBASE"
section in the 'git-rebase' documentation wasn't in line with the
rest of the illustrations of that section.

Correct it.
Yeah. It is unclear from the lack of context, but this part shows
the original state with some number of commits on the 'master'
branch, and the illustrations that follow depict the evolution of
histories starting from this state, yet they have one less commit
on their 'master' branch (and they are not trying to say the master
is reset to lose one commit), which is what "wasn't in line" in the
log message means.  

Looks correct to me.  Thanks.
