Subject: [PATCH 1/2] Avoid update hook during git-rebase --interactive

```
If we are rebasing changes that contain potential whitespace
errors that our .git/hooks/pre-commit hook looks for and fails
on then git-commit will fail to commit that change.  This causes
git-rebase--interactive to squash commits together, even though it
was not requested to do so by the todo file.

Passing --no-verify to git-commit makes git-rebase -i behave more
like git-rebase normally would in such conditions, providing more
consistent behavior between the different rebase implementations.

 This bug has bitten me more than once.  One could argue that the
 pre-commit hook should be running, to prevent you from rebasing a
 series that has crappy whitespace, but git-rebase without -m and
 without -i will let you rebase such a series without stopping you,
 as git-am doesn't execute the pre-commit hook.
