This patch breaks the test suite (with these two new tests) under
GIT_TEST_REBASE_USE_BUILTIN=false. So a 2.21.0-rc0 regression.
It would have been better to raise this before the rc period, but I just
noticed this now, but we can now:
1. Skip the test under that mode
2. Fix the shell code to do the same thing
3. Just remove the shell code & GIT_TEST_REBASE_USE_BUILTIN=false mode
Maybe we should just do #3. The reason for the escape hatch was in case
we had bugs, and now we've had a full release cycle, but maybe that's
too early...
