When performing a non-interactive rebase, sometimes "git rebase --continue" will fail if an unmodified file is touched in the working directory:

    You must edit all merge conflicts and then
    mark them as resolved using git add

This is caused by "git diff-files" reporting a difference between the index and the filesystem:

    :100644 100644 d00491...... 000000...... M	file

The fix is to run "git update-index --refresh" before "git diff-files" as is done in git-rebase--interactive.

Changes since v1:
- Updated test script based on list feedback.  Thanks!
  * Replaced while loop in original test with test-chmtime.
  * Switched to use test_commit.
- Added test case for the same issue in git-rebase--interactive
  that was already fixed, and verified that the test breaks when
  the fix is removed.
