Now that the "checkout" invoked internally from "rebase -i" knows to
honor GIT_REFLOG_ACTION, we can start to use it to write a better
reflog message when "rebase anotherbranch", "rebase --onto branch",
etc. internally checks out the new fork point. We will write:
rebase -i: checkout master
instead of the old
rebase -i
As all the calls git-rebase--interactive make to underlying git
commands that leave reflog messages are preceded by the internal
comment_for_reflog helper function, which uses the original value of
the GIT_REFLOG_ACTION variable it saw when it first started, the new
assignments to GIT_REFLOG_ACTION actively contaminate the value of
the variable, knowing that it will be reset to a sane value before
it is used again. This does not generally hold true but it should
suffice for now.
