I wonder if it should also check that HEAD^ is the root commit, to make
sure that the squash-onto commit that's created and then amended has
been squashed onto.

Hmm, is that something which other tests don't cover or an
issue that could affect 'rebase -i --root' with reword
differently than other 'rebase -i' commands?

I admit I'm not well-versed in the rebase -i tests and I
focused only on creating a test which demonstrated the bug I
noticed.
