Hitting Ctrl-C during git-rebase results undefined behavior. git-rebase is
a shell script and was never designed to operate in any form of atomicity.

You should have let it run until it stopped. Then you could have said 'git
rebase --abort' (if it didn't complete) or 'git reset --hard ORIG_HEAD'
(if it completed).
