I first thought that unsetting *check_todo in do_pick_commit(), when !is_rebase_i(), was a clean solution. But sadly it is *not* a godo equivalent to Gábor's patch, because check_todo can be set to true without looking at is_rebase_i() in pick_commits() [*1*]. To ignore that setting where the variable's value is used, the hunk we see above in the beginning of this message is necessary. That was what I meant. I think the "This is what I had before" patch matches my "I first thought" version, so we were on the same page and both wrong ;-) Thanks. [Footnote] *1* I still do not know why a47ba3c7 ("rebase -i: check for updated todo after squash and reword", 2019-08-19) sets check_todo to true without looking at is_rebase_i(). If this unconditonal setting in TODO_EXEC did not exist, I think your "This is what I had before" patch would have been equivalent to Gábor's patch.
