Re: [PATCH RFC v2 08/19] rebase -i: Root commits are replayed with an unnecessary option

It makes the next patch easier to understand because the finalising
command line "git commit --allow-empty --amend --no-post-rewrite -n
--no-edit" seems to be simply moved to the end of do_pick. Substituting
--no-edit for -C there would make that log message overly long ...

And the reason why the same "-C $1" is not used and "--no-edit" is used
in the final version that is moved to the end of do_pick is...?
