"git rebase" has learned to honor "--signoff" option when using
backends other than "am" (but not "--preserve-merges").
* pw/rebase-signoff:
rebase --keep-empty: always use interactive rebase
rebase -p: error out if --signoff is given
rebase: extend --signoff support
Allow --signoff to be used with --interactive and --merge. In
interactive mode only commits marked to be picked, edited or reworded
will be signed off.
The main motivation for this patch was to allow one to run 'git rebase
--exec "make check" --signoff' which is useful when preparing a patch
series for publication and is more convenient than doing the signoff
with another --exec command.
This change also allows --root without --onto to work with --signoff
as well (--root with --onto was already supported).

Due to historical reasons, the backend scriptlets for "git rebase"
are structured a bit unusually. As originally designed,
dot-sourcing them from "git rebase" was sufficient to invoke the
specific backend.
However, it was later discovered that some shell implementations
(e.g. FreeBSD 9.x) misbehaved by continuing to execute statements
following a top-level "return" rather than returning control to
the next statement in "git rebase" after dot-sourcing the
scriptlet. To work around this shortcoming, the whole body of
git-rebase--$backend.sh was made into a shell function
git_rebase__$backend, and then the very last line of the scriptlet
called that function.
A more normal architecture is for a dot-sourced scriptlet merely
to define functions (thus acting as a function library), and for
those functions to be called by the script doing the dot-sourcing.
Migrate to this arrangement by moving the git_rebase__$backend
call from the end of a scriptlet into "git rebase" itself.
While at it, remove the large comment block from each scriptlet
explaining this historic anomaly since it serves no purpose under
the new normalized architecture in which a scriptlet is merely a
function library.

This option allows commits with empty commit messages to be rebased,

git-cherry-pick, so it is natural to make other git tools play nicely

This operation has quadratic complexity, which is especially painful
on Windows, where shell scripts are *already* slow (mainly due to the
overhead of the POSIX emulation layer).
Let's reimplement this with linear complexity (using a hash map to
match the commits' subject lines) for the common case; Sadly, the
fixup/squash feature's design neglected performance considerations,
allowing arbitrary prefixes (read: `fixup! hell` will match the
commit subject `hello world`), which means that we are stuck with
quadratic performance in the worst case.
The reimplemented logic also happens to fix a bug where commented-out
lines (representing empty patches) were dropped by the previous code.
While at it, clarify how the fixup/squash feature works in `git rebase

To avoid problems with short SHA-1s that become non-unique during the
rebase, we rewrite the todo script with short/long SHA-1s before and
after letting the user edit the script. Since SHA-1s are not intuitive
for humans, rebase -i also provides the onelines (commit message
subjects) in the script, purely for the user's convenience.
It is very possible to generate a todo script via different means than
rebase -i and then to let rebase -i run with it; In this case, these
onelines are not required.
And this is where the expand/collapse machinery has a bug: it *expects*
that oneline, and failing to find one reuses the previous SHA-1 as
"oneline".
It was most likely an oversight, and made implementation in the (quite
limiting) shell script language less convoluted. However, we are about
to reimplement performance-critical parts in C (and due to spawning a
git.exe process for every single line of the todo script, the
expansion/collapsing of the SHA-1s *is* performance-hampering on
Windows), therefore let's fix this bug to make cross-validation with the
C version of that functionality possible.

The commands used to be indented, and it is nice to look at, but when we
transform the SHA-1s, the indentation is removed. So let's do away with it.
For the moment, at least: when we will use the upcoming rebase--helper
to transform the SHA-1s, we *will* keep the indentation and can
reintroduce it. Yet, to be able to validate the rebase--helper against
the output of the current shell script version, we need to remove the
extra indentation.

The first step of an interactive rebase is to generate the so-called "todo
script", to be stored in the state directory as "git-rebase-todo" and to
be edited by the user.
Originally, we adjusted the output of `git log <options>` using a simple
sed script. Over the course of the years, the code became more
complicated. We now use shell scripting to edit the output of `git log`
conditionally, depending whether to keep "empty" commits (i.e. commits
that do not change any files).
On platforms where shell scripting is not native, this can be a serious
drag. And it opens the door for incompatibilities between platforms when
it comes to shell scripting or to Unix-y commands.
Let's just re-implement the todo script generation in plain C, using the
revision machinery directly.
This is substantially faster, improving the speed relative to the
shell script version of the interactive rebase from 2x to 3x on Windows.
Note that the rearrange_squash() function in git-rebase--interactive
relied on the fact that we set the "format" variable to the config setting
rebase.instructionFormat. Relying on a side effect like this is no good,
hence we explicitly perform that assignment (possibly again) in
rearrange_squash().

Now that the sequencer learned to process a "normal" interactive rebase,
we use it. The original shell script is still used for "non-normal"
interactive rebases, i.e. when --root or --preserve-merges was passed.
Please note that the --root option (via the $squash_onto variable) needs
special handling only for the very first command, hence it is still okay
to use the helper upon continue/skip.
Also please note that the --no-ff setting is volatile, i.e. when the
interactive rebase is interrupted at any stage, there is no record of
it. Therefore, we have to pass it from the shell script to the
rebase--helper.
Note: the test t3404 had to be adjusted because the the error messages
produced by the sequencer comply with our current convention to start with
a lower-case letter.

"git rebase -i" with a recent update started showing an incorrect
count when squashing more than 10 commits.
* jk/rebase-i-squash-count-fix:
rebase--interactive: count squash commits above 10 correctly
We generate the squash commit message incrementally running
a sed script once for each commit. It parses "This is
a combination of <N> commits" from the first line of the
existing message, adds one to <N>, and uses the result as
the number of our current message.
Since f2d17068fd (i18n: rebase-interactive: mark comments of
squash for translation, 2016-06-17), the first line may be
localized, and sed uses a pretty liberal regex, looking for:
/^#.*([0-9][0-9]*)/
The "[0-9][0-9]*" tries to match double digits, but it
doesn't quite work. The first ".*" is greedy, so if you
have:
This is a combination of 10 commits.
it will eat up "This is a combination of 1", leaving "0" to
match the first "[0-9]" digit, and then skipping the
optional match of "[0-9]*".
As a result, the count resets every 10 commits, and a
15-commit squash would end up as:
# This is a combination of 5 commits.
# This is the 1st commit message:
...
# This is the commit message #2:
... and so on ..
# This is the commit message #10:
...
# This is the commit message #1:
...
# This is the commit message #2:
... etc, up to 5 ...
We can fix this by making the ".*" less greedy. Instead of
depending on ".*?" working portably, we can just limit the
match to non-digit characters, which accomplishes the same
thing.

Since the very inception of interactive-rebase in 1b1dce4
(Teach rebase an interactive mode, 2007-06-25), there has
been a preemptive check, before looking at any commits, to
see whether the user has a valid name/email combination.
This is convenient, because it means that we abort the
operation before even beginning (rather than just
complaining that we are unable to pick a particular commit).
However, it does the wrong thing when the rebase does not
actually need to generate any new commits (e.g., a
fast-forward with no commits to pick, or one where the base
stays the same, and we just pick the same commits without
rewriting anything). In this case it may complain about the
lack of ident, even though one would not be needed to
complete the operation.
This may seem like mere nit-picking, but because interactive
rebase underlies the "preserve-merges" rebase, somebody who
has set "pull.rebase" to "preserve" cannot make even a
fast-forward pull without a valid ident, as we bail before
even realizing the fast-forward nature.
This commit drops the extra ident check entirely. This means
we rely on individual commands that generate commit objects
to complain. So we will continue to notice and prevent cases
that actually do create commits, but with one important
difference: we fail while actually executing the "pick"
operations, and leave the rebase in a conflicted, half-done
state.
In some ways this is less convenient, but in some ways it is
more so; the user can then manually commit or even "git
rebase --continue" after setting up their ident (or
providing it as a one-off on the command line).

Interactive rebase uses 'wc -l' to write the current patch number
in a progress report. Some implementations of 'wc -l' produce spaces
before the number, leading to ugly output such as
Rebasing ( 3/8)
Remove the spaces using a trivial arithmetic evaluation.
Before 9588c52 (i18n: rebase-interactive: mark strings for
translation) this was not a problem because printf was used to
generate the text. Since that commit, the count is interpolated
directly from a shell variable into the text, where the spaces
remain. The total number of patches does not have this problem
even though it is interpolated from a shell variable in the same
manner, because the variable is set by an arithmetic evaluation.
Later in the script, there is a virtually identical case where
leading spaces are trimmed, but it uses a pattern substitution:
todocount=$(git stripspace --strip-comments <"$todo" | wc -l)
todocount=${todocount##* }
I did not choose this idiom because it adds a line of code, and
there is already an arithmetic evaluation in the vicinity of the
line that is changed here.
