[PATCH 0/5] rebase -i: add config to abbreviate command names

[Liam Beguin <liambeguin@gmail.com>]

Hi everyone,

This series is a respin of something [1] I sent a few months ago. This
time, instead of shell, It's based on top of the C implementation of the
interactive rebase. I've also tried to address the comments that were
left in the last thread.

This series will add the 'rebase.abbreviateCommands' configuration
option to allow `git rebase -i` to default to the single-letter command
names when generating the todo list.

Using single-letter command names can present two benefits. First, it
makes it easier to change the action since you only need to replace a
single character (i.e.: in vim "r<character>" instead of
"ciw<character>").  Second, using this with a large enough value of
'core.abbrev' enables the lines of the todo list to remain aligned
making the files easier to read.

Changes since last time:
- Implement abbreviateCommands in rebase--helper
- Add note on the --[no-]autosquash option in rebase.autoSquash
- Add exec commands via the rebase--helper
- Add test case for rebase.abbreviateCommands
