That's a good idea - I don't know why builtin/rebase.c only calls rebase_write_basic_state() which writes head-name after it has run format-patch and am.

Thanks for rewording this I think the new version is better for omitting the reference to the interactive backend. The interdiff for this patch and the next look good.

This is v5 of en/rebase-backend based on v2.25.0. This series does a lot of work around making the default rebase backend configurable, and switches the default from the apply backend to the merge one. Changes since v4: * Added a note about an unfortunately-timed Ctrl-C to the docs, as suggested by SZEDER. * Addressed feedback from Phillip * Added a new patch at the end renaming the two backends. PLEASE take a look at its commit message for rationale and let me know if you agree with it. Note that in particular, the last patch at the end could have been partially squashed into other patches, but if people objected to the patch in general I wanted Junio to be able to take the rest of the series and just drop that patch. As with v4, there are some things mentioned earlier that are not addressed: * I did not remove the --am (now --apply) option as suggested by Phillip, since Junio and Phillip were still discussing whether it is wanted/needed. I kind of like having it, but have no strong opinion. * I noted the post-commit hook in the differences between backends. Emily is investigating what changes need to happen there, so I merely documented the existing differences. * I did not address the last two items Jonathan brought up as I couldn't find enough information to reproduce or understand the problems.
