We always return an xstrdup'd here, so this should be a "char *" return
value, not a "const char *"., but

Here we just reset the strbuf...

Here we leak the freshly xstrdup'd value, mostly untested, but shouldn't
this instead be:
	
	diff --git a/sequencer.c b/sequencer.c
	index e23f6f0b718..58a97e04c67 100644
	--- a/sequencer.c

	 		strbuf_addf(&buf, " (%s)", sub_action);

Of course that requires dropping the "const", per the above...

Here we'd before hand a fixed string to reset_head(), but now it's
xstrdup()'d, but the corresponding free() on that side is missing.

But aren't we always just returing "rebase" here still?

Here you're adding a new memory leak, which you can see if you run
e.g. the 1st test of ./t1013-read-tree-submodule.sh before & after this
change.
