I think it should have moved those last two context lines that set 
`use_editor` to below the part that you are fixing. Then the `use_editor 
= 0` line that you are changing continues to work as before. (As you see 
there are quite a few legacy Yoda conditions in this file, nowadays we 
avoid adding new ones). I'm not sure if it is worth re working this 
patch to do that, but it does have the advantage of only testing 
edit_flag once.
I looked at moving the condition to one place but as use_editor = 0
is only set for --fixup if there isn't a suboption specified I didn't want
to have to duplicate the check for a suboption when deciding if
use_editor should default to zero.

Again I'm not sure it is worth changing it now but for future reference 
this is a rather complicated way of appending to the commit message. The 
test file has an example using set_fake_editor() together with 
FAKE_COMMIT_AMEND just below where you have added this test or you can 
just have

     EDITOR="echo something extra >>" git commit --fixup=HEAD~1 --edit

Yeah, especially getting sed in a POSIX and BSD compatible mode took some
doing. I wanted to have a similar output to the test above this one, with a line break 
between something and extra, and frankly, my shell-foo lacked for
getting either FAKE_COMMIT_AMEND or EDITOR="... >>" to include a newline.
But looking at it again, I realize that EDITOR="printf \"something\nextra\" >>" 
works just fine.
