The interactive rebase command builds a text file and passes it to
editor specified as environment variable or as configuration
parameter. However the man page for rebase operation says nothing
about which encoding will be used for that file. Apparently
i18n.logoutputencoding is used. I think that the man page for rebase
operation should explicitly specify it.

Also it might make sense to use explicit encoding parameter for
interactive rebase operation.
