Bug? git rebase -i --autostash fails to restore working files

When running ‘git rebase -i --autostash’ if the editor fails then the
rebase fails but stash is not applied so the working files are not
restored. Running ‘git rebase --abort’ replies that there’s no rebase
in progress. If you notice what’s happened it’s not a problem if you
know to do ‘git stash apply <autostash id>’ but it’s confusing as
normally the stash would be automatically applied. This happened to me
when I messed up my editor configuration but you can reproduce it with

$ GIT_SEQUENCE_EDITOR=false git rebase -i --autostash HEAD^^
Created autostash: ff960d4
HEAD is now at f1b8af7 [git] Turn on rebase.missingCommitsCheck
Could not execute editor

$ git rebase --abort
No rebase in progress?

Best Wishes
