I had some problems rebasing a repository that had empty commits,
which caused the rebase to stop. After continuing it with git rebase
--continue, it seems that the strategies I originally gave were
forgotten.

I quickly glanced at the code, and it seems that a lot of rebase
options are stored in in a $state_dir, but $strategy_args is not one
of them.


Since git rebase --interactive not ignoring strategies
(https://github.com/git/git/commit/db2b3b820e2b28da268cc88adff076b396392dfe)
is a recent change to Git (only available in 1.8.4-rc+), I believe
that this was overlooked.
