Happy hunting.
While you're looking at this, I observe that the fact that the `rebase
finished' message also does not honour GIT_REFLOG_ACTION appears to be
a pre-existing bug.
(In general one often can't rely on GIT_REFLOG_ACTION still being set
because the rebase might have been interrupted and restarted, which I
think is why my test case looks for it in the initial `checkout'
message.)
Regards,
Ian.
