In read_rebase_todolist() every line is, after reading, checked
    for a comment_line_char. After that it is trimmed via strbuf_trim().
    Assuming we do never expect a CR as comment_line_char,
    strbuf_getline_lf() can be safely replaced by its CRLF counterpart.

Notes:
    Looking at the code in read_rebase_todolist(), the
    lines are read, checked for a comment_line_char and then trimmed. I
    wonder why the input is not trimmed before checking for this character?
    Is it safe to replace strbuf_getline_lf() by strbuf_getline() anyway?
        The only case I can imagine that could lead to unexpected behaviour then
    would be when someone sets the comment_line_char to CR. How likely is that?
        Why is the trim _after_ checking for the comment char anyway? Should
    something like "   # foobar" not be considered as comment?
        I decided to roll out the patch because I considered it not as a risk 
to be
    taken seriously, that the comment line char will be '\r'.
        Meta-question: Should something of this discussion be put into the 
commit?
