1. You should be using 'git update-ref' here, I think.
2. You should detect errors.
3. Should ORIG_HEAD better be set at the end of the rebase, not at the
beginning? Because if the rebase stops for some reason, and then you do a
'git reset', you'll have overwritten the ORIG_HEAD that you have set here.
