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.

Maybe this is moot with the other changes you're planning, but even if
the editor doesn't change the todo list, it's still necessary, right? At
the very least, we need to suppress the default interactive editor and
replace it with one that just reuses the input file without any
modification.

The default GIT_EDITOR when running the test suite is ":" and GIT_SEQUENCE_EDITOR and sequence.editor are unset so we don't need to set an editor in the tests unless we want to change the todo list.

Best Wishes

Phillip
