In dcb500dc16 (cherry-pick/revert: advise using --skip, 2019-07-02),
`git commit` learned to suggest to run `git cherry-pick --skip` when
trying to cherry-pick an empty patch.
However, it was overlooked that there are more conditions than just a
`git cherry-pick` when this advice is printed (which originally
suggested the neutral `git reset`): the same can happen during a rebase.
Let's suggest the correct command, even during a rebase.
While at it, we adjust more places in `builtin/commit.c` that
incorrectly assumed that the presence of a `CHERRY_PICK_HEAD` meant that
surely this must be a `cherry-pick` in progress.
Note: we take pains to handle the situation when a user runs a `git
cherry-pick` _during_ a rebase. This is quite valid (e.g. in an `exec`
line in an interactive rebase). On the other hand, it is not possible to
run a rebase during a cherry-pick, meaning: if both `rebase-merge/` and
`sequencer/` exist or CHERRY_PICK_HEAD and REBASE_HEAD point to the same
commit , we still want to advise to use `git cherry-pick --skip`.

`git commit` relies on the presence of CHERRY_PICK_HEAD to show the
correct error message in the case of an empty pick. This fixes a
regression introduced by the conversion from shell to C. In the shell
version everything was a cherry-pick as far as the sequencer code was
concerned so it always wrote CHERRY_PICK_HEAD. The conversion to C
forgot to update the code that creates CHERRY_PICK_HEAD. We do not want
to create CHERRY_PICK_HEAD for fixup and squash commands as that would
prevent `git commit --amend` from running.
Note that the error message shown by `git commit` for an empty pick
during a rebase is currently wrong as it talks about running `git
cherry-pick --skip` rather than `git rebase --skip`. This will be fixed
in a future commit which is why the tests are in t3403-rebase-skip.sh.

This fixes a regression introduced in 356ee4659b ("sequencer: try to
commit without forking 'git commit'", 2017-11-24). When amending a
commit try_to_commit() was using the wrong parent when checking if the
commit would be empty. When amending we need to check against HEAD^ not
HEAD.
t3403 may not seem like the natural home for the new tests but a further
patch series will improve the advice printed by `git commit`. That
series will mutate these tests to check that the advice includes
suggesting `rebase --skip` to skip the fixup that would empty the
commit.

The Git CodingGuidelines prefer the $(...) construct for command
substitution instead of using the backquotes `...`.
The backquoted form is the traditional method for command
substitution, and is supported by POSIX. However, all but the
simplest uses become complicated quickly. In particular, embedded
command substitutions and/or the use of double quotes require
careful escaping with the backslash character.
The patch was generated by:
for _f in $(find . -name "*.sh")
do
perl -i -pe 'BEGIN{undef $/;} s/`(.+?)`/\$(\1)/smg' "${_f}"
done
and then carefully proof-read.

The sub commands '--continue', '--skip' or '--abort' may only be used
standalone according to the documentation. Other options following the
sub command are currently not accepted, but options preceeding them
are. For example, 'git rebase --continue -v' is not accepted, while
'git rebase -v --continue' is. Tighten up the check and allow no other
options when one of these sub commands are used.
Only check that it is standalone for non-interactive rebase for
now. Once the command line processing for interactive rebase has been
replaced by the command line processing in git-rebase.sh, this check
will also apply to interactive rebase.

This patch changes every occurrence of "! git" -- with the meaning
that a git call has to gracefully fail -- into "test_must_fail git".
This is useful to
- make sure the test does not fail because of a signal,
e.g. SIGSEGV, and
- advertise the use of "test_must_fail" for new tests.

Originally, test_expect_failure was designed to be the opposite
of test_expect_success, but this was a bad decision. Most tests
run a series of commands that leads to the single command that
needs to be tested, like this:
test_expect_{success,failure} 'test title' '
setup1 &&
setup2 &&
setup3 &&
what is to be tested
'
And expecting a failure exit from the whole sequence misses the
point of writing tests. Your setup$N that are supposed to
succeed may have failed without even reaching what you are
trying to test. The only valid use of test_expect_failure is to
check a trivial single command that is expected to fail, which
is a minority in tests of Porcelain-ish commands.
This large-ish patch rewrites all uses of test_expect_failure to
use test_expect_success and rewrites the condition of what is
tested, like this:
test_expect_success 'test title' '
setup1 &&
setup2 &&
setup3 &&
! this command should fail
'
test_expect_failure is redefined to serve as a reminder that
that test *should* succeed but due to a known breakage in git it
currently does not pass. So if git-foo command should create a
file 'bar' but you discovered a bug that it doesn't, you can
write a test like this:
test_expect_failure 'git-foo should create bar' '
rm -f bar &&
git foo &&
test -f bar
'
This construct acts similar to test_expect_success, but instead
of reporting "ok/FAIL" like test_expect_success does, the
outcome is reported as "FIXED/still broken".

When you have a merge conflict and want to bypass the commit causing it,
you don't want to care about the dirty state of the working tree.
Also, don't git reset --hard HEAD in the rebase-skip test, so that the
lack of support for this is detected.

This uses "git-apply --whitespace=strip" to fix whitespace errors that have
crept in to our source files over time. There are a few files that need
to have trailing whitespaces (most notably, test vectors). The results
still passes the test, and build result in Documentation/ area is unchanged.

In "git-apply", we have a few sanity checks and heuristics that
expects that the patch fed to us is a unified diff with at least
one line of context.
* When there is no leading context line in a hunk, the hunk
must apply at the beginning of the preimage. Similarly, no
trailing context means that the hunk is anchored at the end.
* We learn a patch deletes the file from a hunk that has no
resulting line (i.e. all lines are prefixed with '-') if it
has not otherwise been known if the patch deletes the file.
Similarly, no old line means the file is being created.
And we declare an error condition when the file created by a
creation patch already exists, and/or when a deletion patch
still leaves content in the file.
These sanity checks are good safety measures, but breaks down
when people feed a diff generated with --unified=0. This was
recently noticed first by Matthew Wilcox and Gerrit Pape.
This adds a new flag, --unified-zero, to allow bypassing these
checks. If you are in control of the patch generation process,
you should not use --unified=0 patch and fix it up with this
flag; rather you should try work with a patch with context. But
if all you have to work with is a patch without context, this
flag may come handy as the last resort.

Now that we control the merge base selection, we won't be forced
into rolling things in that we wanted to skip beforehand.
Also, add a test to ensure this all works as intended.
