I first wanted to do that, imitating the "Stopped at <hex>... <oneline>"
of an `edit` command, but it *is* now possible that we are on an unborn
branch... which will look a bit funny, I guess, as we construct a very
special place-holder commit to be HEAD in that case.

I don't think it says anything special, really. It just reports that we're
in the middle of a rebase, listing up to two already-processed and up to
two to-be-processed todo commands.
