It would make sense to split that into two patches, one to fix --onto's
documentation, and the next one to add --exec. I won't insist on that
though (but maybe others will).

This formats badly in asciidoc (try "make doc" and see the generated
HTML).

Try this:

This has to be used along with the `--interactive` option explicitly.
You may execute several commands between each commit applications.
For this, you can use one instance of exec:
+
	git rebase -i --exec "cmd1; cmd2; ...".
+
You can also insert several instances of exec, if you wish to
only have one command per line for example:
+
	git rebase -i --exec "cmd1" --exec "cmd2" ...
