Re: [PATCH] rebase -i: support single-letter abbreviations for the actions

When you do many rebases, you can get annoyed by having to type out
the actions "edit" or "squash" in total.

This commit helps that, by allowing you to enter "e" instead of "edit",
or "s" instead of "squash", and it also plays nice with "merge" or "amend"
as synonyms to "squash".

  

Can we make "amend" like squash, except that it keeps the first commit's 
authorship instead of the second?  I often merge a commit with some 
minor fix that comes later, and usually want to keep the original author 
record.
