As $EDITOR is exported setting it in one test affects all subsequent
tests. Avoid this by always setting it in a subshell and remove a
couple of unnecessary call to set_fake_editor.

Unnecessary because it reuses the one that was established in the
previous test [1]?  Or unnecessary because we know "rebase -i" would
fail even before it gets to the point of asking an editor to tweak
the todo sequence [2]?  Or something else?

I meant unnecessary as the editor does not change the todo list, but [2] also applies.

If [1], it makes us wonder what happens when an earlier test gets
skipped.  If [2], it makes us wonder what happens when "rebase -i"
fails to fail as expected (does the test correctly diagnose it as a
new breakage in "rebase -i"?).

I think those tests could be tightened up, I'll add a new patch that renames them to describe what they are testing (that we fail if there is more than one merge base) and greps for the expected error message.

Best Wishes

Phillip

This is one of the "removing" instances.

And this is the other one.

Thanks.
