You're confusing function calls and function nesting. do_rest calls
do_next, but the definition of do_next is not nested within do_rest.
When I talk about nested function, I mean
f() {
g() {
...
}
}
Obviously, having functions call each other is not an issue. That's what
functions are meant to be.
Now, having run_specific_rebase_internal include a file which defines
functions which contain nested functions _is_ something I find weird. It
both stresses the shell in a buggy area and makes the code harder to
understand.

Function definitions, and variables assignments. Is it so much of an
issue?
What's the difference between a function definition or variable
assignment within git-rebase--*.sh and within git-rebase.sh?
