Later in the series, you remove everything related to "me" that you add here, having modified it once in the middle. Just go to

	setenv(GIT_REFLOG_ACTION, action == REVERT ? "revert" : "cherry-pick");

and remove "me" from this function in this patch. For that matter, squashing together the "opts" patch and this one would probably make them make more sense: there's not much benefit to getting rid of some globals when other globals remain that matter for the same reason. It also fixes the annoyance that each place you introduce "me" in this patch needs to be changed later in the series.
