Subject: [PATCH v5 04/11] hook: convert 'post-rewrite' hook in sequencer.c to hook API

From: Adrian Ratiu <[email-masked]>
Date: Thu, 18 Dec 2025 19:11:18 +0200

From: Emily Shaffer <[email-masked]>

Replace the custom run-command calls used by post-rewrite with
the newer and simpler hook_run_opt(), which does not need to
create a custom 'struct child_process' or call find_hook().

Another benefit of using the hook API is that hook_run_opt()
handles the SIGPIPE toggle logic.
