Hi Alban

sorry for the slow reply, I think you're probably off-list for a while by now

I did consider doing that, but there are a few subtle differences in the way the options are stored in each struct (eg the gpg option has a leading -S in struct rebase_options but not struct replay_options) and I think it would be a bit of a faff to align them as it would mean messing with the code uses them and the code that reads/writes the various state files (we cannot change the on-disk format without breaking things - sometimes users start a rebase with one version of git bundled with something like tig and then continue on the command-line with a different version). I'd prefer to leave it as a future cleanup once this series has been merged.
