It is probably more Kosher, and I used to always do that, but it
is much longer to type, and I use both perhaps 50%/50% depending
on the mood.

When the fix-up only adds stuff, 3-way merge would say that the
commit before fixing up (lt/gitlink~3 in our example, which you
are explicitly excluding, while I am letting rebase to see it)
has already been applied, in which case the procedure would not
even stop.  The case illustrated in my message which only adds a
forgotten line "fclose(f)" falls into that category.
