If you use this feature regularly you can now enable it by default. In case the user wants to override this config on the commandline --no-autosquash can be used to force disabling.

No I did not see the exact use case because you could simply not prefix you commits with 'fixup!' or 'squash!' and if your project regularly uses those on commits you probably would like to configure different prefixes.

On the other hand I think it is a good convention to always provide a --no-... option for things you can enable in the config and it does not hurt to do so. So here is a new patch implementing this. I also fixed some places with missing && in the testcases I implemented.

cheers Heiko
