However, I am reluctant to accept the performance impact: in the long

updates `HEAD` (and the worktree) when interrupting the rebase (via
`break` or `edit`), and `reword` does not qualify for "interrupting" in
my mind.

It's crucial that users can look at the files in the currently
reworded commit while it is being reworded.
