When eff80a9 (Allow custom "comment char", 2013-01-16) taught the `stripspace` command to respect the config setting `core.commentChar`, it forgot that this variable may be defined in .git/config.

So when rebasing interactively with a commentChar defined in the current repository's config, the help text at the bottom of the edit script potentially used an incorrect comment character. This was not only funny-looking, but also resulted in tons of warnings like this one:

	Warning: the command isn't recognized in the following line
