doc: mention GIT_SEQUENCE_EDITOR and 'sequence.editor' more
The environment variable `GIT_SEQUENCE_EDITOR`, and the configuration variable 'sequence.editor', which were added in 821881d88d ("rebase -i": support special-purpose editor to edit insn sheet, 2011-10-17), are mentioned in the `git config` man page but not anywhere else. Include `config/sequencer.txt` in `git-rebase.txt`, so that both the environment variable and the configuration setting are mentioned there. Also, add `GIT_SEQUENCE_EDITOR` to the list of environment variables in `git(1)`. Signed-off-by: Philippe Blain <levraiphilippeblain@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
