[PATCH] D60557: Explain --reproduce option.

[Rui Ueyama via Phabricator via llvm-commits]

ruiu created this revision.
ruiu added a reviewer: emaste.
Herald added a project: LLVM.

I think --reproduce is no longer a debug-only option but a useful
option that a common user may want to use. So, this patch updates
the description of the option in the manual page.
