79d7e883bb rebase--interactive: move rearrange_squash_in_todo_file()
As rearrange_squash_in_todo_file() is only needed inside of
rebase--interactive.c for `rebase -p', it is moved there from
sequencer.c.

The parameter r (repository) is dropped along the way, and the error
handling is slightly improved.

94bcad7979 sequencer: change complete_action() to use the refactored functions
complete_action() used functions that read the todo-list file, made some
changes to it, and wrote it back to the disk.

The previous commits were dedicated to separate the part that deals with
the file from the actual logic of these functions.  Now that this is
done, we can call directly the "logic" functions to avoid useless file
access.

The parsing of the list has to be done by the caller.  If the buffer of
the todo list provided by the caller is empty, a `noop' command is
directly added to the todo list, without touching the buffer.

d358fc286d sequencer: make sequencer_make_script() write its script to a strbuf
This makes sequencer_make_script() write its script to a strbuf (ie. the

f2a04904be sequencer: refactor rearrange_squash() to work on a todo_list
This refactors rearrange_squash() to work on a todo_list to avoid
redundant reads and writes.  The function is renamed
todo_list_rearrange_squash().

The old version created a new buffer, which was directly written to the
disk.  This new version creates a new item list by just copying items
from the old item list, without creating a new buffer.  This eliminates
the need to reparse the todo list, but this also means its buffer cannot
be directly written to the disk.

As rebase -p still need to check the todo list from the disk, a new
function is introduced, rearrange_squash_in_todo_file().

complete_action() still uses rearrange_squash_in_todo_file() for now.
This will be changed in a future commit.

683153a438 sequencer: refactor sequencer_add_exec_commands() to work on a todo_list
This refactors sequencer_add_exec_commands() to work on a todo_list to
avoid redundant reads and writes to the disk.

Instead of inserting the `exec' commands between the other commands and
re-parsing the buffer at the end, they are appended to the buffer once,
and a new list of items is created.  Items from the old list are copied
across and new `exec' items are appended when necessary.  This
eliminates the need to reparse the buffer, but this also means we have
to use todo_list_write_to_disk() to write the file.

todo_list_add_exec_commands() and sequencer_add_exec_commands() are
modified to take a string list instead of a string -- one item for each
command.  This makes it easier to insert a new command to the todo list
for each command to execute.

sequencer_add_exec_commands() still reads the todo list from the disk,
as it is needed by rebase -p.

complete_action() still uses sequencer_add_exec_commands() for now.
This will be changed in a future commit.

missing_commit_check_level are no longer needed inside of sequencer.c,
they are moved to rebase-interactive.c, and made static again.

616d7740cf sequencer: introduce todo_list_write_to_file()
This introduces a new function to recreate the text of a todo list from
its commands and write it to a file.  This will be useful as the next
few commits will change the use of the buffer in struct todo_list so it
will no longer be a mirror of the file on disk.

This functionality already exists in todo_list_transform(), but this
function was made to replace the buffer of a todo list, which is not
what we want here.  Thus, the part of todo_list_transform() that
replaces the buffer is dropped, and the function is renamed
todo_list_to_strbuf().  It is called by todo_list_write_to_file() to
fill the buffer to write to the disk.

todo_list_write_to_file() can also take care of appending the help text
to the buffer before writing it to the disk, or to write only the first
n items of the list.  This feature will be used by
skip_unnecessary_picks(), which has to write done commands in a file.

6ad656db9b sequencer: remove the 'arg' field from todo_item
The 'arg' field of todo_item used to store the address of the first byte
of the parameter of a command in a todo list.  It was associated with
the length of the parameter (the 'arg_len' field).

This replaces the 'arg' field by 'arg_offset'.  This new field does not
store the address of the parameter, but the position of the first
character of the parameter in the buffer.  todo_item_get_arg() is added
to return the address of the parameter of an item.

This will prevent todo_list_add_exec_commands() from having to do awful
pointer arithmetics when growing the todo list buffer.

899b49c446 git-rebase, sequencer: extend --quiet option for the interactive machinery
While 'quiet' and 'interactive' may sound like antonyms, the interactive
machinery actually has logic that implements several
interactive_rebase=implied cases (--exec, --keep-empty, --rebase-merges)
which won't pop up an editor.  The rewrite of interactive rebase in C
added a quiet option, though it only turns stats off.  Since we want to
make the interactive machinery also take over for git-rebase--merge, it
should fully implement the --quiet option.

git-rebase--interactive was already somewhat quieter than
git-rebase--merge and git-rebase--am, possibly because cherry-pick has
just traditionally been quieter.  As such, we only drop a few
informational messages -- "Rebasing (n/m)" and "Successfully rebased..."

Also, for simplicity, remove the differences in how quiet and verbose
options were recorded.  Having one be signalled by the presence of a
"verbose" file in the state_dir, while the other was signalled by the
contents of a "quiet" file was just weirdly inconsistent.  (This
inconsistency pre-dated the rewrite into C.)  Make them consistent by
having them both key off the presence of the file.

d421afa0c6 rebase: introduce --reschedule-failed-exec
A common use case for the `--exec` option is to verify that each commit
in a topic branch compiles cleanly, via `git rebase -x make <base>`.

However, when an `exec` in such a rebase fails, it is not re-scheduled,
which in this instance is not particularly helpful.

Let's offer a flag to reschedule failed `exec` commands.

Based on an idea by Paul Morelle.

b97e187364 rebase -i: rewrite complete_action() in C
This rewrites complete_action() from shell to C.

A new mode is added to rebase--helper (`--complete-action`), as well as
a new flag (`--autosquash`).

Finally, complete_action() is stripped from git-rebase--interactive.sh.

The original complete_action() would return the code 2 when the todo
list contained no actions.  This was a special case for rebase -i and
-p; git-rebase.sh would then apply the autostash, delete the state
directory, and die with the message "Nothing to do".  This cleanup is
rewritten in C instead of returning 2.  As rebase -i no longer returns
2, the comment describing this behaviour in git-rebase.sh is updated to
reflect this change.

The message "Nothing to do" is now printed with error(), and so becomes
"error: nothing to do".  Some tests in t3404 check this value, so they
are updated to fit this change.

The first check might seem useless as we write "noop" to the todo list
if it is empty.  Actually, the todo list might contain commented
commands (ie. empty commits).  In this case, complete_action() won’t
write "noop", and will abort without starting the editor.

66e83d9b41 append_signoff: use size_t for string offsets
The append_signoff() function takes an "int" to specify the
number of bytes to ignore. Most callers just pass 0, and the
remainder use ignore_non_trailer() to skip over cruft.
That function also returns an int, and uses them internally.

On systems where size_t is larger than an int (i.e., most
64-bit systems), dealing with a ridiculously large commit
message could end up overflowing an int, producing
surprising results (e.g., returning a negative offset, which
would cause us to look outside the original string).

Let's consistently use size_t for these offsets through this
whole stack. As a bonus, this makes the meaning of
"ignore_footer" as an offset (and not a boolean) more clear.
But while we're here, let's also document the interface.

therefore its code is not part of `checkout_base_commit()`.

The shell version is then stripped in favour of a call to the helper.

As $GIT_REFLOG_ACTION is no longer set at the first call of
checkout_onto(), a call to comment_for_reflog() is added at the
beginning of this function.

d87d48b2e0 sequencer: learn about the special "fake root commit" handling
When an interactive rebase wants to recreate a root commit, it
- first creates a new, empty root commit,
- checks it out,
- converts the next `pick` command so that it amends the empty root
  commit

Introduce support in the sequencer to handle such an empty root commit,
by looking for the file <GIT_DIR>/rebase-merge/squash-onto; if it exists
and contains a commit name, the sequencer will compare the HEAD to said
root commit, and if identical, a new root commit will be created.

While converting scripted code into proper, portable C, we also do away
with the old "amend with an empty commit message, then cherry-pick
without committing, then amend again" dance and replace it with code
that uses the internal API properly to do exactly what we want: create a
new root commit.

To keep the implementation simple, we always spawn `git commit` to create
new root commits.

e12a7ef597 rebase -i: Handle "combination of <n> commits" with GETTEXT_POISON
We previously relied on the localized versions of

	# This is a combination of <N> commits

(which we write into the commit messages during fixup/squash chains)
to contain <N> encoded in ASCII.

This is not true in general, and certainly not true when compiled with
GETTEXT_POISON=TryToKillMe, as demonstrated by the regression test we
just introduced in t3418.

So let's decouple keeping track of the count from the (localized) commit
messages by introducing a new file called 'current-fixups' that keeps
track of the current fixup/squash chain. This file contains a bit more
than just the count (it contains a list of "fixup <commit>"/"squash
<commit>" lines). This is done on purpose, as it will come in handy for
a fix for the bug where `git rebase --skip` on a final fixup/squash will
leave the commit message in limbo.

7543f6f444 rebase -i: introduce --rebase-merges=[no-]rebase-cousins
When running `git rebase --rebase-merges` non-interactively with an
ancestor of HEAD as <upstream> (or leaving the todo list unmodified),
we would ideally recreate the exact same commits as before the rebase.

However, if there are commits in the commit range <upstream>.. that do not
have <upstream> as direct ancestor (i.e. if `git log <upstream>..` would
show commits that are omitted by `git log --ancestry-path <upstream>..`),
this is currently not the case: we would turn them into commits that have
<upstream> as direct ancestor.

Let's illustrate that with a diagram:

        C
      /   \
A - B - E - F
  \   /
    D

Currently, after running `git rebase -i --rebase-merges B`, the new branch
structure would be (pay particular attention to the commit `D`):

       --- C' --
      /         \
A - B ------ E' - F'
      \    /
        D'

This is not really preserving the branch topology from before! The
reason is that the commit `D` does not have `B` as ancestor, and
therefore it gets rebased onto `B`.

This is unintuitive behavior. Even worse, when recreating branch
structure, most use cases would appear to want cousins *not* to be
rebased onto the new base commit. For example, Git for Windows (the
heaviest user of the Git garden shears, which served as the blueprint
for --rebase-merges) frequently merges branches from `next` early, and
these branches certainly do *not* want to be rebased. In the example
above, the desired outcome would look like this:

       --- C' --
      /         \
A - B ------ E' - F'
  \        /
   -- D' --

Let's introduce the term "cousins" for such commits ("D" in the
example), and let's not rebase them by default. For hypothetical
use cases where cousins *do* need to be rebased, `git rebase
--rebase=merges=rebase-cousins` needs to be used.

1644c73c6d rebase-helper --make-script: introduce a flag to rebase merges
The sequencer just learned new commands intended to recreate branch
structure (similar in spirit to --preserve-merges, but with a
substantially less-broken design).

Let's allow the rebase--helper to generate todo lists making use of
these commands, triggered by the new --rebase-merges option. For a
commit topology like this (where the HEAD points to C):

	- A - B - C
	    \   /
	      D

the generated todo list would look like this:

	# branch D
	pick 0123 A
	label branch-point
	pick 1234 D
	label D

	reset branch-point
	pick 2345 B
	merge -C 3456 D # C

To keep things simple, we first only implement support for merge commits
with exactly two parents, leaving support for octopus merges to a later
patch series.

All merge-rebasing todo lists start with a hard-coded `label onto` line.
This makes it convenient to refer later on to the revision onto which
everything is rebased, e.g. as starting point for branches other than
the very first one.

different file and running the hook. Using a different file means that
if the commit is cancelled the original message file is
unchanged. Also move the checks for an empty commit so the order
matches 'git commit'.

28d6daed4f sequencer: improve config handling
The previous config handling relied on global variables, called
git_default_config() even when the key had already been handled by
git_sequencer_config() and did not initialize the diff configuration
variables. Improve this by: i) loading the default values for message
cleanup and gpg signing of commits into struct replay_opts;
ii) restructuring the code to return immediately once a key is
handled; and iii) calling git_diff_basic_config(). Note that
unfortunately it is not possible to return early if the key is handled
by git_gpg_config() as it does not indicate to the caller if the key
has been handled or not.

The sequencer should probably have been calling
git_diff_basic_config() before as it creates a patch when there are
conflicts. The shell version uses 'diff-tree' to create the patch so
calling git_diff_basic_config() should match that. Although 'git
commit' calls git_diff_ui_config() I don't think the output of
print_commit_summary() is affected by anything that is loaded by that
as print_commit_summary() always turns on rename detection so would
ignore the value in the user's configuration anyway. The other values
loaded by git_diff_ui_config() are about the formatting of patches so
are not relevant to print_commit_summary().

e47c6cafcb commit: move print_commit_summary() to libgit
Move print_commit_summary() from builtin/commit.c to sequencer.c so it
can be shared with other commands. The function is modified by
changing the last argument to a flag so callers can specify whether
they want to show the author date in addition to specifying if this is
an initial commit.

If the sequencer dies in print_commit_summary() (which can only happen
when cherry-picking or reverting) then neither the todo list nor the
abort safety file are updated to reflect the commit that was just
made. print_commit_summary() can die if:

 - The commit that was just created cannot be found or parsed.

 - HEAD cannot be resolved either because some other process is
   updating it (which is bad news in the middle of a cherry-pick) or
   because it is corrupt.

 - log_tree_commit() cannot read some objects.

In all those cases dying will leave the sequencer in a sane state for
aborting; 'git cherry-pick --abort' will rewind HEAD to the last
successful commit before there was a problem with HEAD or the object
database. If the user somehow fixes the problem and runs 'git
cherry-pick --continue' then the sequencer will try and pick the same
commit again which may or may not be what the user wants depending on
what caused print_commit_summary() to die. If print_commit_summary()
returned an error instead then update_abort_safety_file() would try to
resolve HEAD which may or may not be successful. If it is successful
then running 'git rebase --abort' would not rewind HEAD to the last
successful commit which is not what we want.

c44a4c650c rebase -i: rearrange fixup/squash lines using the rebase--helper
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
-i`'s man page.

62db524779 rebase -i: generate the script via rebase--helper
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().

5ed75e2a3f cherry-pick: don't forget -s on failure
In case 'git cherry-pick -s <commit>' failed, the user had to use 'git
commit -s' (i.e. state the -s option again), which is easy to forget
about.  Instead, write the signed-off-by line early, so plain 'git
commit' will have the same result.

Also update 'git commit -s', so that in case there is already a relevant
Signed-off-by line before the Conflicts: line, it won't add one more at
the end of the message. If there is no such line, then add it before the
the Conflicts: line.

4bee958479 cherry-pick: add --allow-empty-message option
Scripts such as "git rebase -i" cannot currently cherry-pick commits
which have an empty commit message, as git cherry-pick calls git
commit without the --allow-empty-message option.

Add an --allow-empty-message option to git cherry-pick which is passed
through to git commit, so this behaviour can be overridden.

b27cfb0d8d git-cherry-pick: Add keep-redundant-commits option
The git-cherry-pick --allow-empty command by default only preserves empty
commits that were originally empty, i.e only those commits for which
<commit>^{tree} and <commit>^^{tree} are equal.  By default commits which are
non-empty, but were made empty by the inclusion of a prior commit on the current
history are filtered out.  This option allows us to override that behavior and
include redundant commits as empty commits in the change history.

Note that this patch changes the default behavior of git cherry-pick slightly.
Prior to this patch all commits in a cherry-pick sequence were applied and git
commit was run.  The implication here was that, if a commit was redundant, and
the commit did not trigger the fast forward logic, the git commit operation, and
therefore the git cherry-pick operation would fail, displaying the cherry pick
advice (i.e. run git commit --allow-empty).  With this patch however, such
redundant commits are automatically skipped without stopping, unless
--keep-redundant-commits is specified, in which case, they are automatically
applied as empty commits.

df478b744c git-cherry-pick: add allow-empty option
git cherry-pick fails when picking a non-ff commit that is empty.  The advice
given with the failure is that a git-commit --allow-empty should be issued to
explicitly add the empty commit during the cherry pick.  This option allows a
user to specify before hand that they want to keep the empty commit.  This
eliminates the need to issue both a cherry pick and a commit operation.

043a4492b3 sequencer: factor code out of revert builtin
Expose the cherry-picking machinery through a public
sequencer_pick_revisions() (renamed from pick_revisions() in
builtin/revert.c), so that cherry-picking and reverting are special
cases of a general sequencer operation.  The cherry-pick builtin is
now a thin wrapper that does command-line argument parsing before
calling into sequencer_pick_revisions().  In the future, we can write
a new "foo" builtin that calls into the sequencer like:

  memset(&opts, 0, sizeof(opts));
  opts.action = REPLAY_FOO;
  opts.revisions = xmalloc(sizeof(*opts.revs));
  parse_args_populate_opts(argc, argv, &opts);
  init_revisions(opts.revs);
  sequencer_pick_revisions(&opts);

This patch does not intend to make any functional changes.  Check
with:

  $ git blame -s -C HEAD^..HEAD -- sequencer.c | grep -C3 '^[^^]'

d596118d7a revert: stop creating and removing sequencer-old directory
Now that "git reset" no longer implicitly removes .git/sequencer that
the operator may or may not have wanted to keep, the logic to write a
backup copy of .git/sequencer and remove it when stale is not needed
any more.  Simplify the sequencer API and repository layout by
dropping it.

f80a87262a revert: rename --reset option to --quit
The option to "git cherry-pick" and "git revert" to discard the
sequencer state introduced by v1.7.8-rc0~141^2~6 (revert: Introduce
--reset to remove sequencer state, 2011-08-04) has a confusing name.
Change it now, while we still have the time.

The new name for "cherry-pick, please get out of my way, since I've
long forgotten about the sequence of commits I was cherry-picking when
you wrote that old .git/sequencer directory" is --quit.  Mnemonic:
this is analagous to quiting a program the user is no longer using ---
we just want to get out of the multiple-command cherry-pick procedure
and not to reset HEAD or rewind any other old state.

The "--reset" option is kept as a synonym to minimize the impact.  We
might consider dropping it for simplicity in a separate patch, though.

Adjust documentation and tests to use the newly preferred name (--quit)
instead of --reset.  While at it, let's clarify the short descriptions
of these operations in "-h" output.

Before:

	--reset		forget the current operation
	--continue	continue the current operation

After:

	--quit		end revert or cherry-pick sequence
	--continue	resume revert or cherry-pick sequence

26ae337be1 revert: Introduce --reset to remove sequencer state
To explicitly remove the sequencer state for a fresh cherry-pick or
revert invocation, introduce a new subcommand called "--reset" to
remove the sequencer state.

Take the opportunity to publicly expose the sequencer paths, and a
generic function called "remove_sequencer_state" that various git
programs can use to remove the sequencer state in a uniform manner;
"git reset" uses it later in this series.  Introducing this public API
is also in line with our long-term goal of eventually factoring out
functions from revert.c into a generic commit sequencer.
