In preparation for a later patch that creates $dotest/autostash in git-rebase.sh before anything else happens, don't assume that the presence of a $dotest directory implies the existence of the $next and $last files. The check for the files is in a conditional anyway, but `cat` is executed on potentially non-existent files. Suppress this error output.
