Re: [PATCH v2 6/8] rebase --apply: make reflog messages match rebase --merge

> From: Phillip Wood <phillip.wood@dunelm.org.uk>
>
> The apply backend creates slightly different reflog messages to the
> merge backend when starting and finishing a rebase and when picking
> commits. The choice of backend is really an implementation detail so
> it is confusing to have the same command create different messages
> depending on which backend is selected. Change the apply backend so
> the reflog messages from the two backends match as closely as
> possible. Note that there is still a difference when committing a
> conflict resolution - the merge backend will use "(continue)" rather
> than "(pick)" in that case as it does not know which command created
> the conflict that it is committing.
