If a merge command in the todo list specifies just a branch to merge
with no -C/-c argument then item->commit is NULL. This means that if
there are merge conflicts error_with_patch() is passed a NULL commit
which causes a segmentation fault when make_patch() tries to look it up.
This commit implements a minimal fix which fixes the crash and allows
the user to successfully commit a conflict resolution with 'git rebase
--continue'. It does not write .git/rebase-merge/patch,
.git/rebase-merge/stopped-sha or update REBASE_HEAD. To sensibly get the
hashes of the merge parents would require refactoring do_merge() to
extract the code that parses the merge parents into a separate function
which error_with_patch() could then use to write the parents into the
stopped-sha file. To create meaningful output make_patch() and 'git
rebase --show-current-patch' would also need to be modified to diff the
merge parent and merge base in this case.

The idea of `--exec` is to append an `exec` call after each `pick`.
Since the introduction of fixup!/squash! commits, this idea was extended
to apply to "pick, possibly followed by a fixup/squash chain", i.e. an
exec would not be inserted between a `pick` and any of its corresponding
`fixup` or `squash` lines.
The current implementation uses a dirty trick to achieve that: it
assumes that there are only pick/fixup/squash commands, and then
*inserts* the `exec` lines before any `pick` but the first, and appends
a final one.
With the todo lists generated by `git rebase --rebase-merges`, this
simple implementation shows its problems: it produces the exact wrong
thing when there are `label`, `reset` and `merge` commands.
Let's change the implementation to do exactly what we want: look for
`pick` lines, skip any fixup/squash chains, and then insert the `exec`
line. Lather, rinse, repeat.
Note: we take pains to insert *before* comment lines whenever possible,
as empty commits are represented by commented-out pick lines (and we
want to insert a preceding pick's exec line *before* such a line, not
afterward).
While at it, also add `exec` lines after `merge` commands, because they
are similar in spirit to `pick` commands: they add new commits.

Single quotes should be escaped as \' not \\'. The bad quoting breaks
the interactive version of 'rebase --root' (which is used when there
is no '--onto' even if the user does not specify --interactive) for
authors that contain "'" as sq_dequote() called by read_author_ident()
errors out on the bad quoting.
For other interactive rebases this only affects external scripts that
read the author script and users whose git is upgraded from the shell
version of rebase -i while rebase was stopped when the author contains
"'". This is because the parsing in read_env_script() expected the
broken quoting.
This patch includes code to handle the broken quoting when
git has been upgraded while rebase was stopped. It does this by
detecting the missing "'" at the end of the GIT_AUTHOR_DATE line to see
if it should dequote \\' as "'". Note this is only implemented for
normal picks, not for creating a new root commit (rebase will stop with
an error complaining out bad quoting in that case).
The fallback code has been manually tested by reverting both the quoting
fixes in write_author_script() and the previous fix for the missing "'"
at the end of the GIT_AUTHOR_DATE line and running
t3404-rebase-interactive.sh.
Ideally rebase and am would share the same code for reading and
writing the author script, but this commit just fixes the immediate
bug.

Check for a NULL return value from read_author_ident() that indicates
an error. Previously the NULL author was passed to commit_tree() which
would then fallback to using the default author when creating the new
commit. This changed the date and potentially the author of the commit
which corrupted the author data compared to its expected value.

"git rebase" started exporting GIT_DIR environment variable and
exposing it to hook scripts when part of it got rewritten in C.
Instead of matching the old scripted Porcelains' behaviour,
compensate by also exporting GIT_WORK_TREE environment as well to
lessen the damage. This can harm existing hooks that want to
operate on different repository, but the current behaviour is
already broken for them anyway.

read_author_ident() is careful to handle errors "gently" when parsing
"rebase-merge/author-script" by printing a suitable warning and
returning NULL; it never die()'s. One possible reason that parsing might
fail is that "rebase-merge/author-script" has been hand-edited in such a
way which corrupts it or the information it contains.
However, read_author_ident() invokes fmt_ident() which is not so careful
about failing "gently". It will die() if it encounters a malformed
timestamp. Since read_author_ident() doesn't want to die() and since
it's dealing with possibly hand-edited data, take care to avoid passing
a bogus timestamp to fmt_ident().
A more "correctly engineered" fix would be to add a "gentle" version of
fmt_ident(), however, such a change it outside the scope of the bug-fix
series. If fmt_ident() ever does grow a "gentle" cousin, then the manual
timestamp check added here can be retired.

When "git rebase -i --root" creates a new root commit, it corrupts the
"author" header's timestamp by prepending a "@":
author A U Thor <author@example.com> @1112912773 -0700
The commit parser is very strict about the format of the "author"
header, and does not allow a "@" in that position.
The "@" comes from GIT_AUTHOR_DATE in "rebase-merge/author-script",
signifying a Unix epoch-based timestamp, however, read_author_ident()
incorrectly allows it to slip into the commit's "author" header, thus
corrupting it.
One possible fix would be simply to filter out the "@" when constructing
the "author" header timestamp, however, a more correct fix is to parse
the GIT_AUTHOR_DATE date (via parse_date()) and format the parsed result
into the "author" header. Since "rebase-merge/author-script" may be
edited by the user, this approach has the extra benefit of catching
other potential timestamp corruption due to hand-editing.
We can do better than calling parse_date() ourselves and constructing
the "author" header manually, however, by instead taking advantage of
fmt_ident() which does this work for us.
The benefits of using fmt_ident() are twofold. First, it simplifies the
logic considerably by allowing us to avoid the complexity of building
the "author" header in parallel with and in the same buffer from which
"rebase-merge/author-script" is being parsed. Instead, fmt_ident() is
invoked to compose the header after parsing is complete.
Second, fmt_ident() is careful to prevent "crud" from polluting the
composed ident. As with validating GIT_AUTHOR_DATE, this "crud"
avoidance prevents other (possibly hand-edited) bogus author information
from "rebase-merge/author-script" from corrupting the commit object.

When "git rebase -i --root" creates a new root commit, it corrupts the
"author" header's timezone by repeating the last digit:
author A U Thor <author@example.com> @1112912773 -07000
This is due to two bugs.
First, write_author_script() neglects to add the closing quote to the
value of GIT_AUTHOR_DATE when generating "rebase-merge/author-script".
Second, although sq_dequote() correctly diagnoses the missing closing
quote, read_author_ident() ignores sq_dequote()'s return value and
blindly uses the result of the aborted dequote.
sq_dequote() performs dequoting in-place by removing quoting and
shifting content downward. When it detects misquoting (lack of closing
quote, in this case), it gives up and returns an error without inserting
a NUL-terminator at the end of the shifted content, which explains the
duplicated last digit in the timezone.
(Note that the "@" preceding the timestamp is a separate bug which
will be fixed subsequently.)

When "git rebase -i --root" creates a new root commit (say, by swapping
in a different commit for the root), it corrupts the commit's "author"
header with trailing garbage:
author A U Thor <author@example.com> @1112912773 -07000or@example.com
This is a result of read_author_ident() neglecting to NUL-terminate the
buffer into which it composes the "author" header.
(Note that the "@" preceding the timestamp and the extra "0" in the
timezone are separate bugs which will be fixed subsequently.)
Security considerations: Construction of the "author" header by
read_author_ident() happens in-place and in parallel with parsing the
content of "rebase-merge/author-script" which occupies the same buffer.
This is possible because the constructed "author" header is always
smaller than the content of "rebase-merge/author-script". Despite
neglecting to NUL-terminate the constructed "author" header, memory is
never accessed (either by read_author_ident() or its caller) beyond the
allocated buffer since a NUL-terminator is present at the end of the
loaded "rebase-merge/author-script" content, and additional NUL's are
inserted as part of the parsing process.

The sequencer currently passes GIT_DIR, but not GIT_WORK_TREE, to exec
commands. In that configuration, we assume that whatever directory
we're in is the top level of the work tree, and git rev-parse
--show-toplevel responds accordingly. However, when we're in a
subdirectory, that isn't correct: we respond with the subdirectory as
the top level, resulting in unexpected behavior.
Ensure that we pass GIT_WORK_TREE as well as GIT_DIR so that git
operations within subdirectories work correctly.
Note that we are guaranteed to have a work tree in this case: the
relevant sequencer functions are called only from revert, cherry-pick,
and rebase--helper; all of these commands require a working tree.

Previously, we introduced the `merge` command for use in todo lists,

For ease of implementation, and to make review easier, the initial
implementation only supported merge commits with exactly two parents.
This patch adds support for octopus merges, making use of the
just-introduced `-F <file>` option for the `git merge` command: to keep
things simple, we spawn a new Git command instead of trying to call a
library function, also opening an easier door to enhance `rebase
--rebase-merges` to optionally use a merge strategy different from
`recursive` for regular merges: this feature would use the same code
path as octopus merges and simply spawn a `git merge`.

When cherry-picking a single commit, we go through a special
code path that avoids creating a sequencer todo list at all.
This path expects our revision parsing to turn up exactly
one commit, and dies with a BUG if it doesn't.
But it's actually quite easy to fool. For example:
$ git cherry-pick --author=no.such.person HEAD
error: BUG: expected exactly one commit from walk
fatal: cherry-pick failed
This isn't a bug; it's just bogus input.
The condition to trigger this message actually has two
parts:
1. We saw no commits. That's the case in the example
above. Let's drop the "BUG" here to make it clear that
the input is the problem. And let's also use the phrase
"empty commit set passed", which matches what we say
when we do a real revision walk and it turns up empty.
2. We saw more than one commit. That one _should_ be
impossible to trigger, since we fed at most one tip and
provided the no_walk option (and we'll have already
expanded options like "--branches" that can turn into
multiple tips). If this ever triggers, it's an
indication that the conditional added by 7acaaac275
(revert: allow single-pick in the middle of cherry-pick
sequence, 2011-12-10) needs to more carefully define
the single-pick case.
So this can remain a bug, but we'll upgrade it to use
the BUG() macro, which would make it easier to detect
and analyze if it does trigger.

If the user gives us a set that prepare_revision_walk()
takes to be empty, like:
git cherry-pick base..base
then we report an error. It's nonsense, and there's nothing
to pick.
But if they use revision options that later cull the list,
like:
git cherry-pick --author=nobody base~2..base
then we quietly create an empty todo list and return
success.
Arguably either behavior is acceptable, but we should
definitely be consistent about it. Reporting an error
seems to match the original intent, which dates all the way
back to 7e2bfd3f99 (revert: allow cherry-picking more than
one commit, 2010-06-02). That in turn was trying to match
the single-commit case that existed before then (and which
continues to issue an error).

git-rebase--interactive uses sequencer.c to parse that file, and

After splitting, sequencer.c prefixed each "option" with a double dash,
so, concatenating all its options would result in:
-- --ours -- --renormalize
So, when it ended up calling try_merge_strategy(), that in turn would run
git merge-$strategy -- --ours -- --renormalize $merge_base -- $head $remote

Ever since commit 18633e1a22 ("rebase -i: use the rebase--helper builtin",
2017-02-09), when a commit marked as 'reword' in an interactive rebase
has conflicts and fails to apply, when the rebase is resumed that commit
will be squashed into its parent with its commit message taken.
The issue can be understood better by looking at commit 56dc3ab04b
("sequencer (rebase -i): implement the 'edit' command", 2017-01-02), which
introduced error_with_patch() for the edit command. For the edit command,
it needs to stop the rebase whether or not the patch applies cleanly. If
the patch does apply cleanly, then when it resumes it knows it needs to
amend all changes into the previous commit. If it does not apply cleanly,
then the changes should not be amended. Thus, it passes !res (success of
applying the 'edit' commit) to error_with_patch() for the to_amend flag.
The problematic line of code actually came from commit 04efc8b57c
("sequencer (rebase -i): implement the 'reword' command", 2017-01-02).
Note that to get to this point in the code:
* !!res (i.e. patch application failed)
* item->command < TODO_SQUASH
* item->command != TODO_EDIT
* !is_fixup(item->command) [i.e. not squash or fixup]
So that means this can only be a failed patch application that is either a
pick, revert, or reword. We only need to amend HEAD when rewording the
root commit or a commit that has been fast-forwarded, for any of the other
cases we want a new commit, so we should not set the to_amend flag.

A regression to "rebase -i --root" introduced during this cycle has
been fixed.
* js/rebase-i-root-fix:
rebase --root: fix amending root commit messages
rebase --root: demonstrate a bug while amending root commit messages
The code path that triggered that "BUG" really does not want to run
without an explicit commit message. In the case where we want to amend a
commit message, we have an *implicit* commit message, though: the one of
the commit to amend. Therefore, this code path should not even be
entered.
