Yes, that's it, there's no functional reason other than to fire up an
editor to edit the commit message (add r-b, etc.) This always fails for
me and I just do this in the cli separately.

Basically three options, just remove it, add tty test suggested by
Tvrtko, or add some DIM_POST_APPLY_ACTION configuration. I'm fine with
any of them.


BR,
Jani.
