Perhaps the subject line could say "completion: offer '--edit-todo' during interactive rebase" to be a bit more specific.

This doesn't work for me, I think it looks for the right file at the wrong place. During an interactive rebase I have no '.git/interactive' file but a '.git/rebase-merge/interactive', so I never get '--edit-todo'.

After some playing around and a cursory look at the source it seems to me that I have '.git/rebase-apply' during a "regular" rebase and '.git/rebase-merge' during an interactive rebase, and git-rebase.sh checks the presence of the 'interactive' file only in '.git/rebase-merge'. It's not clear to me yet whether it's possible to have a '.git/rebase-merge' without the file 'interactive' in it. If it is possible, then I'd like to know with which commands and under what circumstances. If it isn't, then we wouldn't have to look for the file at all, because checking the presence of the directory would be enough.

Best, Gábor
