1df6df0c18 sequencer (rebase -i): write the 'done' file
In the interactive rebase, commands that were successfully processed are
not simply discarded, but appended to the 'done' file instead. This is
used e.g. to display the current state to the user in the output of
`git status` or the progress.

556907f1e1 sequencer (rebase -i): learn about the 'verbose' mode
When calling `git rebase -i -v`, the user wants to see some statistics
after the commits were rebased. Let's show some.

The strbuf we use to perform that task will be used for other things
in subsequent commits, hence it is declared and initialized in a wider
scope than strictly needed here.

311af5266b sequencer (rebase -i): implement the 'exec' command
The 'exec' command is a little special among rebase -i's commands, as it
does *not* have a SHA-1 as first parameter. Instead, everything after the
`exec` command is treated as command-line to execute.

Let's reuse the arg/arg_len fields of the todo_item structure (which hold
the oneline for pick/edit commands) to point to the command-line.

56dc3ab04b sequencer (rebase -i): implement the 'edit' command
This patch is a straight-forward reimplementation of the `edit`
operation of the interactive rebase command.

Well, not *quite* straight-forward: when stopping, the `edit`
command wants to write the `patch` file (which is not only the
patch, but includes the commit message and author information). To
that end, this patch requires the earlier work that taught the
log-tree machinery to respect the `file` setting of
rev_info->diffopt to write to a file stream different than stdout.

25c4366782 sequencer (rebase -i): implement the 'noop' command
The 'noop' command is probably the most boring of all rebase -i commands
to support in the sequencer.

Which makes it an excellent candidate for this first stab to add support
for rebase -i's commands to the sequencer.

For the moment, let's also treat empty lines and commented-out lines as
'noop'; We will refine that handling later in this patch series.

To make it easier to identify "classes" of todo_commands (such as:
determine whether a command is pick-like, i.e. handles a single commit),
let's enforce a certain order of said commands.

845839575d sequencer: support a new action: 'interactive rebase'
This patch introduces a new action for the sequencer. It really does not
do a whole lot of its own right now, but lays the ground work for
patches to come. The intention, of course, is to finally make the
sequencer the work horse of the interactive rebase (the original idea
behind the "sequencer" concept).

23aa51420c sequencer: use a helper to find the commit message
It is actually not safe to look for a commit message by looking for the
first empty line and skipping it.

The find_commit_subject() function looks more carefully, so let's use
it. Since we are interested in the entire commit message, we re-compute
the string length after verifying that the commit subject is not empty
(in which case the entire commit message would be empty, something that
should not happen but that we want to handle gracefully).

1e41229d96 sequencer: make sequencer abort safer
In contrast to "git am --abort", a sequencer abort did not check
whether the current HEAD is the one that is expected. This can lead
to loss of work (when not spotted and resolved using reflog before
the garbage collector chimes in).

This behavior is now changed by mimicking "git am --abort".  The
abortion is done but HEAD is not changed when the current HEAD is
not the expected HEAD.

A new file "sequencer/abort-safety" is added to save the expected
HEAD.

The new behavior is only active when --abort is invoked on multiple
picks. The problem does not occur for the single-pick case because
it is handled differently.

b3e83cc752 hold_locked_index(): align error handling with hold_lockfile_for_update()
Callers of the hold_locked_index() function pass 0 when they want to
prepare to write a new version of the index file without wishing to
die or emit an error message when the request fails (e.g. somebody
else already held the lock), and pass 1 when they want the call to
die upon failure.

This option is called LOCK_DIE_ON_ERROR by the underlying lockfile
API, and the hold_locked_index() function translates the paramter to
LOCK_DIE_ON_ERROR when calling the hold_lock_file_for_update().

Replace these hardcoded '1' with LOCK_DIE_ON_ERROR and stop
translating.  Callers other than the ones that are replaced with
this change pass '0' to the function; no behaviour change is
intended with this patch.

---

Among the callers of hold_locked_index() that passes 0:

 - diff.c::refresh_index_quietly() at the end of "git diff" is an
   opportunistic update; it leaks the lockfile structure but it is
   just before the program exits and nobody should care.

 - builtin/describe.c::cmd_describe(),
   builtin/commit.c::cmd_status(),
   sequencer.c::read_and_refresh_cache() are all opportunistic
   updates and they are OK.

 - builtin/update-index.c::cmd_update_index() takes a lock upfront
   but we may end up not needing to update the index (i.e. the
   entries may be fully up-to-date), in which case we do not need to
   issue an error upon failure to acquire the lock.  We do diagnose
   and die if we indeed need to update, so it is OK.

 - wt-status.c::require_clean_work_tree() IS BUGGY.  It asks
   silence, does not check the returned value.  Compare with
   callsites like cmd_describe() and cmd_status() to notice that it
   is wrong to call update_index_if_able() unconditionally.

Make sequencer use trailer.c's trailer layout definition, as opposed to
parsing the footer by itself. This makes "commit -s", "cherry-pick -x",
and "format-patch --signoff" consistent with trailer, allowing
non-trailer lines and multiple-line trailers in trailer blocks under
certain conditions, and therefore suppressing the extra newline in those
cases.

Consistency with trailer extends to respecting trailer configs.  Tests
have been included to show that.

2ae38f2a65 sequencer: silence -Wtautological-constant-out-of-range-compare
When clang compiles sequencer.c, it complains:

  sequencer.c:632:14: warning: comparison of constant 2 with
    expression of type 'const enum todo_command' is always
    true [-Wtautological-constant-out-of-range-compare]
          if (command < ARRAY_SIZE(todo_command_strings))

This is because "command" is an enum that may only have two
values (0 and 1) and the array in question has two elements.

As it turns out, clang is actually wrong here, at least
according to its own bug tracker:

  https://llvm.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=16154

But it's still worth working around this, as the warning is
present with -Wall, meaning we fail compilation with "make
DEVELOPER=1".

Casting the enum to size_t sufficiently unconfuses clang. As
a bonus, it also catches any possible out-of-bounds access
if the enum takes on a negative value (which shouldn't
happen either, but again, this is a defensive check).

018ec3c820 commit: fix empty commit creation when there's no changes but ita entries
If i-t-a entries are present and there is no change between the index
and HEAD i-t-a entries, index_differs_from() still returns "dirty, new
entries" (aka, the resulting commit is not empty), but cache-tree will
skip i-t-a entries and produce the exact same tree of current
commit.

index_differs_from() is supposed to catch this so we can abort
git-commit (unless --no-empty is specified). Update it to optionally
ignore i-t-a entries when doing a diff between the index and HEAD so
that it would return "no change" in this case and abort commit.

a1c757623c sequencer: allow editing the commit message on a case-by-case basis
In the upcoming commits, we will implement more and more of rebase -i's
functionality inside the sequencer. One particular feature of the
commands to come is that some of them allow editing the commit message
while others don't, i.e. we cannot define in the replay_opts whether the
commit message should be edited or not.

Let's add a new parameter to the run_git_commit() function. Previously,
it was the duty of the caller to ensure that the opts->edit setting
indicates whether to let the user edit the commit message or not,
indicating that it is an "all or nothing" setting, i.e. that the
sequencer wants to let the user edit *all* commit message, or none at
all. In the upcoming rebase -i mode, it will depend on the particular
command that is currently executed, though.

b5a670452c sequencer: prepare for rebase -i's commit functionality
In interactive rebases, we commit a little bit differently than the
sequencer did so far: we heed the "author-script", the "message" and the
"amend" files in the .git/rebase-merge/ subdirectory.

Likewise, we may want to edit the commit message *even* when providing a
file containing the suggested commit message. Therefore we change the
code to not even provide a default message when we do not want any, and
to call the editor explicitly.

Also, in "interactive rebase" mode we want to skip reading the options
in the state directory of the cherry-pick/revert commands.

Finally, as interactive rebase's GPG settings are configured differently
from how cherry-pick (and therefore sequencer) handles them, we will
leave support for that to the next commit.

c22f7dfb0c sequencer: remember the onelines when parsing the todo file
The `git-rebase-todo` file contains a list of commands. Most of those
commands have the form

	<verb> <sha1> <oneline>

The <oneline> is displayed primarily for the user's convenience, as
rebase -i really interprets only the <verb> <sha1> part. However, there
are *some* places in interactive rebase where the <oneline> is used to
display messages, e.g. for reporting at which commit we stopped.

So let's just remember it when parsing the todo file; we keep a copy of
the entire todo file anyway (to write out the new `done` and
`git-rebase-todo` file just before processing each command), so all we
need to do is remember the begin offsets and lengths.

As we will have to parse and remember the command-line for `exec` commands
later, we do not call the field "oneline" but rather "arg" (and will reuse
that for exec's command-line).

6307041dd2 sequencer: strip CR from the todo script
It is not unheard of that editors on Windows write CR/LF even if the
file originally had only LF. This is particularly awkward for exec lines
of a rebase -i todo sheet. Take for example the insn "exec echo": The
shell script parser splits at the LF and leaves the CR attached to
"echo", which leads to the unknown command "echo\r".

Work around that by stripping CR when reading the todo commands, as we
already do for LF.

This happens to fix t9903.14 and .15 in MSYS1 environments (with the
rebase--helper patches based on this patch series): the todo script
constructed in such a setup contains CR/LF thanks to MSYS1 runtime's
cleverness.

Based on a report and a patch by Johannes Sixt.

004fefa754 sequencer: completely revamp the "todo" script parsing
When we came up with the "sequencer" idea, we really wanted to have
kind of a plumbing equivalent of the interactive rebase. Hence the
choice of words: the "todo" script, a "pick", etc.

However, when it came time to implement the entire shebang, somehow this
idea got lost and the sequencer was used as working horse for
cherry-pick and revert instead. So as not to interfere with the
interactive rebase, it even uses a separate directory to store its
state.

Furthermore, it also is stupidly strict about the "todo" script it
accepts: while it parses commands in a way that was *designed* to be
similar to the interactive rebase, it then goes on to *error out* if the
commands disagree with the overall action (cherry-pick or revert).

Finally, the sequencer code chose to deviate from the interactive rebase
code insofar that when it comes to writing the file with the remaining
commands, it *reformats* the "todo" script instead of just writing the
part of the parsed script that were not yet processed. This is not only
unnecessary churn, but might well lose information that is valuable to
the user (i.e. comments after the commands).

Let's just bite the bullet and rewrite the entire parser; the code now
becomes not only more elegant: it allows us to go on and teach the
sequencer how to parse *true* "todo" scripts as used by the interactive
rebase itself. In a way, the sequencer is about to grow up to do its
older brother's job. Better.

In particular, we choose to maintain the list of commands in an array
instead of a linked list: this is flexible enough to allow us later on to
even implement rebase -i's reordering of fixup!/squash! commits very
easily (and with a very nice speed bonus, at least on Windows).

While at it, do not stop at the first problem, but list *all* of the
problems. This will help the user when the sequencer will do `rebase
-i`'s work by allowing to address all issues in one go rather than going
back and forth until the todo list is valid.

03a4e260e2 sequencer: plug memory leaks for the option values
The sequencer is our attempt to lib-ify cherry-pick. Yet it behaves
like a one-shot command when it reads its configuration: memory is
allocated and released only when the command exits.

This is kind of okay for git-cherry-pick, which *is* a one-shot
command. All the work to make the sequencer its work horse was
done to allow using the functionality as a library function, though,
including proper clean-up after use.

To remedy that, take custody of the option values in question,
allocating and duping literal constants as needed and freeing them
at end.

548009c0d5 merge_trees(): ensure that the callers release output buffer
The recursive merge machinery accumulates its output in an output
buffer, to be flushed at the end of merge_recursive(). At this point,
we forgot to release the output buffer.

When calling merge_trees() (i.e. the non-recursive part of the recursive
merge) directly, the output buffer is never flushed because the caller
may be merge_recursive() which wants to flush the output itself.

For the same reason, merge_trees() cannot release the output buffer: it
may still be needed.

Forgetting to release the output buffer did not matter much when running
git-checkout, or git-merge-recursive, because we exited after the
operation anyway. Ever since cherry-pick learned to pick a commit range,
however, this memory leak had the potential of becoming a problem.

f241ff0d0a prepare the builtins for a libified merge_recursive()
Previously, callers of merge_trees() or merge_recursive() expected that
code to die() with an error message. This used to be okay because we
called those commands from scripts, and had a chance to print out a
message in case the command failed fatally (read: with exit code 128).

As scripting incurs its own set of problems (portability, speed,
idiosyncrasies of different shells, limited data structures leading to
inefficient code), we are converting more and more of these scripts into
builtins, using library functions directly.

We already tried to use merge_recursive() directly in the builtin
git-am, for example. Unfortunately, we had to roll it back temporarily
because some of the code in merge-recursive.c still deemed it okay to
call die(), when the builtin am code really wanted to print out a useful
advice after the merge failed fatally. In the next commits, we want to
fix that.

The code touched by this commit expected merge_trees() to die() with
some useful message when there is an error condition, but merge_trees()
is going to be improved by converting all die() calls to return error()
instead (i.e. return value -1 after printing out the message as before),
so that the caller can react more flexibly.

This is a step to prepare for the version of merge_trees() that no
longer dies,  even if we just imitate the previous behavior by calling
exit(128): this is what callers of e.g. `git merge` have come to expect.

Note that the callers of the sequencer (revert and cherry-pick) already
fail fast even for the return value -1; The only difference is that they
now get a chance to say "<command> failed".

A caller of merge_trees() might want handle error messages themselves
(or even suppress them). As this patch is already complex enough, we
leave that change for a later patch.

Mark entire sentences of error message rather than assembling one using
placeholders (e.g. "Cannot %s during a %s").

That would facilitate translation work because it is easier to translate
a entire sentence than translating pieces. We would have better
translations at the expense of source code verbosity.

Moreover, translators can now 1) translate the terms "revert" and
"cherry-pick" if they please 2) have more leeway to adapt their
translations.

7b35eaf8c5 sequencer: simplify memory allocation of get_message
For a commit with sha1 "1234abcd" and subject "foo", this
function produces a struct with three strings:

 1. "foo"

 2. "1234abcd... foo"

 3. "parent of 1234abcd... foo"

It takes advantage of the fact that these strings are
subsets of each other, and allocates only _one_ string, with
pointers into the various parts. Unfortunately, this makes
the string allocation complicated and hard to follow.

Since we keep only one of these in memory at a time, we can
afford to simply allocate three strings. This lets us build
on tools like xstrfmt and avoid manual computation.

While we're here, we can also drop the ad-hoc
reimplementation of get_git_commit_encoding(), and simply
call that function.

8f309aeb82 strbuf: introduce strbuf_getline_{lf,nul}()
The strbuf_getline() interface allows a byte other than LF or NUL as
the line terminator, but this is only because I wrote these
codepaths anticipating that there might be a value other than NUL
and LF that could be useful when I introduced line_termination long
time ago.  No useful caller that uses other value has emerged.

By now, it is clear that the interface is overly broad without a
good reason.  Many codepaths have hardcoded preference to read
either LF terminated or NUL terminated records from their input, and
then call strbuf_getline() with LF or NUL as the third parameter.

This step introduces two thin wrappers around strbuf_getline(),
namely, strbuf_getline_lf() and strbuf_getline_nul(), and
mechanically rewrites these call sites to call either one of
them.  The changes contained in this patch are:

 * introduction of these two functions in strbuf.[ch]

 * mechanical conversion of all callers to strbuf_getline() with
   either '\n' or '\0' as the third parameter to instead call the
   respective thin wrapper.

After this step, output from "git grep 'strbuf_getline('" would
become a lot smaller.  An interim goal of this series is to make
this an empty set, so that we can have strbuf_getline_crlf() take
over the shorter name strbuf_getline().

f932729cc7 memoize common git-path "constant" files
One of the most common uses of git_path() is to pass a
constant, like git_path("MERGE_MSG"). This has two
drawbacks:

  1. The return value is a static buffer, and the lifetime
     is dependent on other calls to git_path, etc.

  2. There's no compile-time checking of the pathname. This
     is OK for a one-off (after all, we have to spell it
     correctly at least once), but many of these constant
     strings appear throughout the code.

This patch introduces a series of functions to "memoize"
these strings, which are essentially globals for the
lifetime of the program. We compute the value once, take
ownership of the buffer, and return the cached value for
subsequent calls.  cache.h provides a helper macro for
defining these functions as one-liners, and defines a few
common ones for global use.

Using a macro is a little bit gross, but it does nicely
document the purpose of the functions. If we need to touch
them all later (e.g., because we learned how to change the
git_dir variable at runtime, and need to invalidate all of
the stored values), it will be much easier to have the
complete list.

Note that the shared-global functions have separate, manual
declarations. We could do something clever with the macros
(e.g., expand it to a declaration in some places, and a
declaration _and_ a definition in path.c). But there aren't
that many, and it's probably better to stay away from
too-magical macros.

Likewise, if we abandon the C preprocessor in favor of
generating these with a script, we could get much fancier.
E.g., normalizing "FOO/BAR-BAZ" into "git_path_foo_bar_baz".
But the small amount of saved typing is probably not worth
the resulting confusion to readers who want to grep for the
function's definition.

17d65f03e1 sequencer: preserve commit messages
sequencer calls "commit" with default options, which implies
"--cleanup=default" unless the user specified something else in their
config. This leads to cherry-picked commits getting a cleaned up commit
message, which is usually not an intended side-effect.

Make the sequencer use "--cleanup=verbatim" so that it preserves commit
messages independent of the default, unless the user has set config for "commit"
or the message is amended with -s or -x.

261f315beb merge & sequencer: turn "Conflicts:" hint into a comment
Just like other hints such as "Changes to be committed" we show in
the editor to remind the committer what paths were involved in the
resulting commit to help improving their log message, this section
is merely a reminder.

Traditionally, it was not made into comments primarily because it
has to be generated outside the wt-status infrastructure, and also
because it was meant as a bit stronger reminder than the others
(i.e. explaining how you resolved conflicts is much more important
than mentioning what you did to every paths involved in the commit).

But that still does not make this hint a part of the log message
proper, and not showing it as a comment is inviting mistakes.

Note that we still notice "Conflicts:" followed by list of indented
pathnames as an old-style cruft and insert a new Signed-off-by:
before it.  This is so that "commit --amend -s" adds the new S-o-b
at the right place when used on an older commit.

While at it, swap two of the arguments in the function to put output
