Subject: [PATCH] doc/read-tree: remove obsolete remark

From: "Andreas G. Schacker" <[email-masked]>
Date: Tue, 9 Jan 2018 16:30:34 +0100

Earlier versions of `git read-tree` required the `--prefix` option value
to end with a slash. This restriction was eventually lifted without a
corresponding amendment to the documentation.
