I wonder if people might want more about the current step (but maybe
that belongs to `git status`) or perhaps the not yet performed states
(and maybe even a way to edit the todo list?)
Note that 'git status' is already doing this, but shows only 2 items of
each:

$ git status
interactive rebase in progress; onto 3772427
Last commands done (2 commands done):
   pick a48812c some commit title
   exec false
Next commands to do (2 remaining commands):
   pick 9d7835d some other commit
   pick c0e0fa8 one more subject
  (use "git rebase --edit-todo" to view and edit)
You are currently editing a commit while rebasing branch 'master' on '3772427'.
...

The idea was that 2 lines of context is often sufficient, and doesn't
eat too much screen space so it makes sense to show it by default.

I think it makes sense to have another command that shows the whole
sequence, but perhaps it could also be just an option for "git status".

Cheers,

But this is only for interactive rebase.
It might be worth adding a parameter for this, but I'd also like to see this feature for all rebase/cp/revert
