Yes, I remember writing that side carefully, taking exactly this
issue into account.

Yeah, I see that interactive side is sloppier. In
git-rebase--interactive.sh, if you move
HEAD=$(git rev-parse --verify HEAD) || die "No HEAD?"
UPSTREAM=$(git rev-parse --verify "$1") || die "Invalid base"
around l.481 up so that they come before if test ! -z "$2",
you would be Ok, although I didn't test it.
