0e757e30c7 rebase -i: avoid 'git reset' when possible
When picking commits whose parents have not changed, we do not need to
rewrite the commit.  We do not need to reset the working directory to
the parent's state, either.

Requested by Sverre Rabbelier.

94c88edef7 Fix submodule squashing into unrelated commit
Actually, I think the issue is pretty independent of submodules; when
"git commit" gets an empty parameter, it misinterprets it as a file.

So avoid passing an empty parameter to "git commit".

Actually, this is a nice cleanup, as MSG_FILE and EDIT_COMMIT were mutually
exclusive; use one variable instead

d911d14 (rebase -i: learn to rebase root commit, 2009-01-02) tried to
remember the --root flag across a merge conflict in a broken way.
Introduce a flag file $DOTEST/rebase-root to fix and clarify.

While at it, also make sure $UPSTREAM is always initialized to guard
against existing values in the environment.

If we are not rebasing with --root, then $# can only be either 1 (base)

d911d1465d rebase -i: learn to rebase root commit
Teach git-rebase -i a new option --root, which instructs it to rebase
the entire history leading up to <branch>.  This is mainly for
symmetry with ordinary git-rebase; it cannot be used to edit the root
commit in-place (it requires --onto <newbase>).  Commits that already
exist in <newbase> are skipped.

In the normal mode of operation, this is fairly straightforward.  We
run cherry-pick in a loop, and cherry-pick has supported picking the
root commit since f95ebf7 (Allow cherry-picking root commits,
2008-07-04).

In --preserve-merges mode, we track the mapping from old to rewritten
commits and use it to update the parent list of each commit.  In this
case, we define 'rebase -i -p --root --onto $onto $branch' to rewrite
the parent list of all root commit(s) on $branch to contain $onto
instead.

f5b49ea619 rebase -i -p: Fix --continue after a merge could not be redone
When a merge that has a conflict was rebased, then rebase stopped to let
the user resolve the conflicts. However, thereafter --continue failed
because the author-script was not saved. (This is rebase -i's way to

failure route after a merge that is also taken after a normal cherry-pick.

e249044c67 rebase-i-p: minimum fix to obvious issues
Jeff King noticed that this series uses non-portable ${var:0:7} syntax
to splice a string, which is not even in POSIX, in the script.  A quick
look at around the offending part revealed a few issues, which this commit
fixes:

 * Why filter output from "rev-list --left-right A...B" and look for the
   ones that begin with ">"?  Wouldn't "rev-list A..B" give that?

 * The abbreviated SHA-1 are made with "rev-list --abbrev=7" into $TODO in
   an earlier invocation, and it can be more than 7 letters to avoid
   ambiguity.  Not just that "${r:0:7} is not even in POSIX", but use of
   it here is actively wrong.

 * There is no point in catting a single file and piping it into grep.

80fe82e4eb rebase-i-p: if todo was reordered use HEAD as the rewritten parent
This seems like the best guess we can make until git sequencer marks are
available. That being said, within the context of re-ordering a commit before
its parent in todo, I think applying it on top of the current commit seems like
a reasonable assumption of what the user intended.

d80d6bc146 rebase-i-p: do not include non-first-parent commits touching UPSTREAM
This covers an odd boundary case found by Avi Kivity's script where a branch
coming off of UPSTREAM is merged into HEAD. Initially it show up in
UPSTREAM..HEAD, but technically UPSTREAM is not moving, the rest of head is, so
we should not need to rewrite the merge.

This adds a check saying we can keep `preserve=t` if `p=UPSTREAM`...unless this
is the first first-parent commit in our UPSTREAM..HEAD rev-list, which could
very well point to UPSTREAM, but we still need to consider it as rewritten so we
start pulling in the rest of the UPSTREAM..HEAD commits that point to it.

faae853ca6 rebase--interactive: fix parent rewriting for dropped commits
`rebase -i -p` got its rev-list of commits to keep by --left-right and
--cherry-pick. Adding --cherry-pick would drop commits that duplicated changes
already in the rebase target.

The dropped commits were then forgotten about when it came to rewriting the
parents of their descendents, so the descendents would get cherry-picked with
their old, unwritten parents and essentially make the rebase a no-op.

This commit adds a $DOTEST/dropped directory to remember dropped commits and
rewrite their children's parent as the dropped commit's possibly-rewritten
first-parent.

In case there is no commit to apply (for example because you rebase to
upstream and all your local patches have been applied there), do not
fail.  The non-interactive rebase already behaves that way.

Do this by introducing a new command, "noop", which is substituted for
an empty commit list, so that deleting the commit list can still abort
as before.

It is sometimes desirable to disable the safety net of pre-rebase hook
when the user knows what he is doing (for example, when the original
changes on the branch have not been shown to the public yet).

This teaches --no-verify option to git-rebase, which is similar to the way
pre-commit hook is bypassed by git-commit.

c14c3c82da git-rebase--interactive: auto amend only edited commit
"git rebase --continue" issued after git rebase being stop by "edit"
command is trying to amend the last commit using stage changes. However,
if the last commit is not the commit that was marked as "edit" then it
can produce unexpected results.

For instance, after being stop by "edit", I have made some changes to
commit message using "git commit --amend". After that I realized that
I forgot to add some changes to some file. So, I said "git add file"
and the "git rebase --continue". Unfortunately, it caused that the new
commit message was lost.

Another problem is that after being stopped at "edit", the user adds new
commits. In this case, automatic amend behavior of git rebase triggered
by some stage changes causes that not only that the log message of the
last commit is lost but that it will contain also wrong Author and Date
information.

Therefore, this patch restrict automatic amend only to the situation
where HEAD is the commit at which git rebase stop by "edit" command.

If git rebase interactive is stopped by "edit" command and then the user
said "git rebase --continue" while having some stage changes, git rebase
interactive is trying to amend the last commit by doing:
  git --soft reset && git commit

However, the user can abort commit for some reason by providing an empty
log message, and that would leave the last commit undone, while the user
being completely unaware about what happened. Now if the user tries to
continue, by issuing "git rebase --continue" that squashes two previous
commits.

a8ccc204c5 rebase -i: When an 'edit' stops, mention the commit
In a rebase session where more than one commit is to be 'edit'ed, and the
user spends considerable time to 'edit' a commit, it is easy to forget what
one wanted to 'edit' at the individual commits. It would be helpful to see

Incidentally, if the rebase stopped due to merge conflicts or other errors,
the commit was already reported ("Could not apply $sha1..."), but when
rebase stopped after successfully applying an "edit" commit, it would not
mention it. With this change the commit is reported.

lost some parents:

 - When you have more than two parents, the commit in the new history

   goes unnoticed;

 - When you are rebasing a merge with two parents and one is lost, the

This teaches "am" and "rebase" (all forms --- the vanilla one that uses
"am" as its backend, "-m" variant that cherry-picks, and "--interactive")
to do the same.

The original idea and a partial implementation to do this only for "rebase

aadbe44f88 grep portability fix: don't use "-e" or "-q"
System V versions of grep (such as Solaris /usr/bin/grep)
don't understand either of these options. git's usage of
"grep -e pattern" fell into one of two categories:

 1. equivalent to "grep pattern". -e is only useful here if
    the pattern begins with a "-", but all of the patterns
    are hardcoded and do not begin with a dash.

 2. stripping comments and blank lines with

      grep -v -e "^$" -e "^#"

    We can fortunately do this in the affirmative as

      grep '^[^#]'

Uses of "-q" can be replaced with redirection to /dev/null.
In many tests, however, "grep -q" is used as "if this string
is in the expected output, we are OK". In this case, it is
fine to just remove the "-q" entirely; it simply makes the
"verbose" mode of the test slightly more verbose.

The commit message template when squashing multiple commits is
prepared by concatenating the messages of existing commits
together.  If the messages from some of them end with incomplete

03270628ed Reallow git-rebase --interactive --continue if commit is unnecessary
During git-rebase --interactive's --continue implementation we used
to silently restart the rebase if the user had made the commit
for us.  This is common if the user stops to edit a commit and
does so by amending it.  My recent change to watch git-commit's
exit status broke this behavior.

c5b09feb78 Avoid update hook during git-rebase --interactive
If we are rebasing changes that contain potential whitespace
errors that our .git/hooks/pre-commit hook looks for and fails
on then git-commit will fail to commit that change.  This causes
git-rebase--interactive to squash commits together, even though it
was not requested to do so by the todo file.

Passing --no-verify to git-commit makes git-rebase -i behave more
like git-rebase normally would in such conditions, providing more

f91333d646 git-rebase--interactive.sh: Make 3-way merge strategies work for -p.
git-rebase--interactive.sh used to pass all parents of a merge commit to
git-merge, which means that we have at least 3 heads to merge: HEAD,
first parent and second parent. So 3-way merge strategies like recursive
wouldn't work.

Fortunately, we have checked out the first parent right before the merge
anyway, so that is HEAD. Therefore we can drop simply it from the list
of parents, making 3-way strategies work for merge commits with only
two parents.

822f7c7349 Supplant the "while case ... break ;; esac" idiom
A lot of shell scripts contained stuff starting with

	while case "$#" in 0) break ;; esac

and similar.  I consider breaking out of the condition instead of the
body od the loop ugly, and the implied "true" value of the
non-matching case is not really obvious to humans at first glance.  It
happens not to be obvious to some BSD shells, either, but that's
because they are not POSIX-compliant.  In most cases, this has been
replaced by a straight condition using "test".  "case" has the
advantage of being faster than "test" on vintage shells where "test"
is not a builtin.  Since none of them is likely to run the git
scripts, anyway, the added readability should be worth the change.

A few loops have had their termination condition expressed
differently.

91e1ee7762 rebase -i: fix overzealous output redirection
When squashing, you no longer saw what the editor had to say to you
after commit 'Shut "git rebase -i" up when no --verbose was given'
(if you used a console based editor, at least).

3b38ec16d5 rebase -i: exchange all "if [ .. ]" by "if test .."
This patch is literally

:%s/if \[ *\(.*[^ ]\) *\]/if test \1/

in vi, after making sure that the other instances of "[..]" are not
actually invocations of "test".

dfa49f3348 Shut "git rebase -i" up when no --verbose was given
Up to now, git rebase -i was quite chatty, showing through all the
nice core programs it called.

Now it only shows a progress meter by default.

6368f3f8e7 rebase -i: call editor just once for a multi-squash
Sometimes you want to squash more than two commits.  Before this patch,
the editor was fired up for each squash command.  Now the editor is
started only with the last squash command.

preference to the EDITOR and VISUAL environment variables. The order
of preference is GIT_EDITOR, core.editor, EDITOR, VISUAL.

82576ddb70 rebase -i: put a nice warning into the todo list
It seems that not everybody expects a difference between keeping a "pick"
line, and deleting it.  So be a bit more explicit about that, with all
capitals to get the attention.

Noticed by vmiklos on IRC.

3df0a859aa rebase -i: actually show the diffstat when being verbose
The "while" loop in the function do_rest is not supposed to ever be
exited.  Instead, the function do_one checks if there is nothing left,
and cleans up and exits if that is the case.  So the diffstat code
belongs there.

18640d991b rebase -i: handle --continue more like non-interactive rebase
Non-interactive rebase requires the working tree to be clean, but
applies what is in the index without requiring the user to do it
herself.  Imitate that, but (since we are interactive, after all)
fire up an editor with the commit message.

It also fixes a subtle bug: a forgotten "continue" was removed, which
led to an infinite loop when continuing without remaining patches.

Both issues noticed by Frank Lichtenheld.

68a163c9b4 rebase -i: provide reasonable reflog for the rebased branch
If your rebase succeeded, the HEAD's reflog will still show the whole
mess, but "<branchname>@{1}" now shows the state _before_ the rebase,
so that you can reset (or compare) the original and the rebased
revisions more easily.

f09c9b8c5f Teach rebase -i about --preserve-merges
The option "-p" (or long "--preserve-merges") makes it possible to
rebase side branches including merges, without straightening the
history.

Example:

           X
            \
         A---M---B
        /
---o---O---P---Q

When the current HEAD is "B", "git rebase -i -p --onto Q O" will yield

               X
                 \
---o---O---P---Q---A'---M'---B'

Note that this will

- _not_ touch X [*1*], it does

- _not_ work without the --interactive flag [*2*], it does

- _not_ guess the type of the merge, but blindly uses recursive or
  whatever strategy you provided with "-s <strategy>" for all merges it
  has to redo, and it does

- _not_ make use of the original merge commit via git-rerere.

*1*: only commits which reach a merge base between <upstream> and HEAD
     are reapplied. The others are kept as-are.

*2*: git-rebase without --interactive is inherently patch based (at
     least at the moment), and therefore merges cannot be preserved.

1b1dce4bae Teach rebase an interactive mode
Don't you just hate the fact sometimes, that git-rebase just applies
the patches, without any possibility to edit them, or rearrange them?
With "--interactive", git-rebase now lets you edit the list of patches,
so that you can reorder, edit and delete patches.

Such a list will typically look like this:

	pick deadbee The oneline of this commit
	pick fa1afe1 The oneline of the next commit
	...

By replacing the command "pick" with the command "edit", you can amend
that patch and/or its commit message, and by replacing it with "squash"
you can tell rebase to fold that patch into the patch before that.

It is derived from the script sent to the list in
<Pine.LNX.4.63.0702252156190.22628@wbgn013.biozentrum.uni-wuerzburg.de>
