Thanks to Ævar and Johannes for their comments. * Changed "! test_cmp_rev" to "test_cmp_rev !" (suggested by Ævar) * Fixed the quoting for the title of the "rebase --quit" tests. * Reworked the last commit to handle the error case first (suggested by Ævar) * Tweaked the commit messages for patches 8 & 11 * Rebased onto 31e4a0db03 ("Merge branch 'ab/rebase-fatal-fatal-fix'", 2021-09-08) to avoid a merge conflict that upset gitgitgadget Cover letter for V1: Aborting a rebase stated with git rebase <upstream> <tag-object> should checkout the commit pointed to by .
