[PATCH 8/9] rebase: use write_pseudoref

From
David Turner <dturner@twopensource.com>
Date

Message-ID
<1437713129-19373-9-git-send-email-dturner@twopensource.com>
In-Reply-To
<1437713129-19373-1-git-send-email-dturner@twopensource.com>

Instead of manually writing a pseudoref (in one case) and using git update-ref (in another), use the new write_pseudoref function.
