Hmm. I think we could just have moved the assignment of FIRSTLINE it down, and had it in just one place. I see you already fixed it up, but maybe a patch like this is still a worthy cleanup.

That said - I didn't check that there isn't some subtle intermediate user or a break out of the loop or something. So while this patch _looks_ obvious and passes the tests, I'm not going to guarantee that there isn't some special case. I doubt any of the tests really check things like the reflog comments after git-am etc..
