Hi Antti

'todo_list_write_to_file' may overwrite the static buffer, originating
from 'find_unique_abbrev', that was used to store the short commit hash
'c' for "# Rebase a..b onto c" message in the todo editor.
Fix by duplicating the string before usage, so subsequent calls to
'find_unique_abbrev' or other functions calling 'hash_to_hex_algop_r'
can't overwrite the buffer.

Thanks for working on this

I'm not sure it's worth rearranging these lines. It probably does not matter but we could do

and then later call find_unique_abbrev_r() instead so we don't have to worry about freeing shortonto.

Thanks for taking the trouble to add a test, I think all the lines above could be simplified to

	GIT_SEQUENCE_EDITOR=cat git rebase -i HEAD~5 branch1 >actual

+	onto=$(git rev-parse --short HEAD~5) &&
+	test_i18ngrep "^# Rebase ..* onto $onto .*" actual

we could lose the final .*

Many Thanks and Best Wishes
