572a7c52bb rebase: don't source git-sh-setup twice
The git-sh-setup script is already sourced in git-rebase.sh before
calling into git-rebase--(am|interactive|merge).sh. There are no other
callers of these scripts. It is therefore unnecessary to source
git-sh-setup again in them.

c214538416 rebase -i: teach "--exec <cmd>"
During an interactive rebase session, it is sometimes desirable to
run tests on each commit in the resulting history.  This can be done
by adding "exec <test command>" when editing the insn sheet, but the
command used for testing is often the same for all resulting commits.

By passing "--exec <cmd>" from the command line, automatically add
these "exec" lines after each commit in the final history.  To work
well with the --autosquash option, these are added at the end of
each run of "fixup" and "squash".

90e1818f9a git-rebase: add keep_empty flag
Add a command line switch to git-rebase to allow a user the ability to specify
that they want to keep any commits in a series that are empty.

When git-rebase's type is am, then this option will automatically keep any
commit that has a tree object identical to its parent.

This patch changes the default behavior of interactive rebases as well.  With
this patch, git-rebase -i will produce a revision set passed to
git-revision-editor, in which empty commits are commented out.  Empty commits
may be kept manually by uncommenting them.  If the new --keep-empty option is
used in an interactive rebase the empty commits will automatically all be
uncommented in the editor.

Giving "--continue" to a conflicted "rebase -i" session skipped a commit

a6754cda43 rebase -i continue: don't skip commits that only change submodules
When git-rebase--interactive stops due to a conflict and the only change
to be committed is in a submodule, the test for whether there is
anything to be committed ignores the staged submodule change.  This
leads rebase to skip creating the commit for the change.

While unstaged submodule changes should be ignored to avoid needing to
update submodules during a rebase, it is safe to remove the
--ignore-submodules option to diff-index because --cached ensures that
it is only checking the index.  This was discussed in [1] and a test is
included to ensure that unstaged changes are still ignored correctly.

8a93f9576a rebase -i: remind that the lines are top-to-bottom
Nelson Benitez Leon opened a discussion with a patch with this in the
note:

    Hi, I was using git rebase -i for some time now and never occured to
    me I could reorder the commit lines to affect the order the commits
    are applied, learnt that recently from a git tutorial.

Nelson's patch was to stress the fact that the lines in the insn sheet can
be re-ordered in a much more verbose way.  Let's add a one-liner reminder
and also remind that the lines in the insn sheet is read from top to
bottom, unlike the "git log" output.

0becb3e4b9 rebase -i: interrupt rebase when "commit --amend" failed during "reword"
"commit --amend" could fail in cases like the user empties the commit
message, or pre-commit failed.  When it fails, rebase should be
interrupted and alert the user, rather than ignoring the error and
continue on rebasing.  This also gives users a way to gracefully
interrupt a "reword" if they decided they actually want to do an "edit",
or even "rebase --abort".

821881d88d "rebase -i": support special-purpose editor to edit insn sheet
The insn sheet used by "rebase -i" is designed to be easily editable by
any text editor, but an editor that is specifically meant for it (but
is otherwise unsuitable for editing regular text files) could be useful
by allowing drag & drop reordering in a GUI environment, for example.

The GIT_SEQUENCE_EDITOR environment variable and/or the sequence.editor
configuration variable can be used to specify such an editor, while
allowing the usual editor to be used to edit commit log messages. As
usual, the environment variable takes precedence over the configuration
variable.

It is envisioned that other "sequencer" based tools will use the same
mechanism.

ffaaed88ae rebase -i: clean error message for --continue after failed exec
After an "exec false" stops the rebase and gives the control back to
the user, if changes are added to the index, "rebase --continue" fails
with this message, which may technically be correct, but does not point
at the real problem:

.../git-rebase--interactive: line 774: .../.git/rebase-merge/author-script: No such file or directory

We could try auto-amending HEAD, but this goes against the logic of
.git/rebase-merge/author-script (see also the testcase 'auto-amend only
edited commits after "edit"' in t3404-rebase-interactive.sh) to
auto-amend something the user hasn't explicitely asked to edit.

Instead of doing anything automatically, detect the situation and give a
clean error message. While we're there, also clarify the error message in
case '. "$author_script"' fails, which now corresponds to really weird
senario where the author script exists but can't be read.

12bf828348 rebase -i -p: include non-first-parent commits in todo list
Consider this graph:

        D---E    (topic, HEAD)
       /   /
  A---B---C      (master)
   \
    F            (topic2)

and the following three commands:
  1. git rebase -i -p A
  2. git rebase -i -p --onto F A
  3. git rebase -i -p B

Currently, (1) and (2) will pick B, D, C, and E onto A and F,
respectively.  However, (3) will only pick D and E onto B, but not C,
which is inconsistent with (1) and (2).  As a result, we cannot modify C
during the interactive-rebase.

The current behavior also creates a bug if we do:
  4. git rebase -i -p C

In (4), E is never picked.  And since interactive-rebase resets "HEAD"
to "onto" before picking any commits, D and E are lost after the
interactive-rebase.

This patch fixes the inconsistency and bug by ensuring that all children
of upstream are always picked.  This essentially reverts the commit:
  d80d6bc146

When compiling the todo list, commits reachable from "upstream" should
never be skipped under any conditions.  Otherwise, we lose the ability
to modify them like (3), and create a bug like (4).

Two of the tests contain a scenario like (3).  Since the new behavior
added more commits for picking, these tests need to be updated to
account for the additional pick lines.  A new test has also been added
for (4).

53f2ffa80c rebase: write a reflog entry when finishing
When we finish a rebase, our detached HEAD is at the final
result. We update the original branch ref with this result,
and then point the HEAD symbolic ref at the updated branch.
We write a reflog for the branch update, but not for the
update of HEAD.

Because we're already at the final result on the detached
HEAD, moving to the branch actually doesn't change our
commit sha1 at all. So in that sense, a reflog entry would
be pointless.

However, humans do read reflogs, and an entry saying "rebase
finished: returning to refs/heads/master" can be helpful in
understanding what is going on.

c192f9c865 git-rebase--interactive.sh: preserve-merges fails on merges created with no-ff
'git rebase' uses 'git merge' to preserve merges (-p).  This preserves
the original merge commit correctly, except when the original merge
commit was created by 'git merge --no-ff'.  In this case, 'git rebase'
will fail to preserve the merge, because during 'git rebase', 'git
merge' will simply fast-forward and skip the commit.  For example:

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

If we try to rebase M onto P, we lose the merge commit and this happens:

                 A---B
                /
    ---o---O---P---Q

To correct this, we simply do a "no fast-forward" on all merge commits
when rebasing.  Since by the time we decided to do a 'git merge' inside
'git rebase', it means there was a merge originally, so 'git merge'
should always create a merge commit regardless of what the merge
branches look like. This way, when rebase M onto P from the above
example, we get:

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

c71f8f3d50 rebase -i: remove unnecessary state rebase-root
Before calling 'git cherry-pick', interactive rebase currently checks
if we are rebasing from root (if --root was passed). If we are, the
'--ff' flag to 'git cherry-pick' is omitted. However, according to the
documentation for 'git cherry-pick --ff', "If the current HEAD is the
same as the parent of the cherry-picked commit, then a fast forward to
this commit will be performed.". This should never be the case when
rebasing from root, so it should not matter whether --ff is passed, so
simplify the code by removing the condition.

84df4560ed rebase: extract code for writing basic state
Extract the code for writing the state to rebase-apply/ or
rebase-merge/ when a rebase is initiated. This will make it easier to
later make both interactive and non-interactive rebase remember the
options used.

Note that non-interactive rebase stores the sha1 of the original head
in a file called orig-head, while interactive rebase stores it in a
file called head. Change this by writing to orig-head in both
cases. When reading, try to read from orig-head. If that fails, read
from head instead. This protects users who upgraded git while they had
an ongoing interactive rebase, while still making it possible to
remove the code that reads from head at some point in the future.

Some names in git-rebase--interactive.sh, such as "author_script" and

downcase the name of the variable that refers to the file.

Currently, git-rebase.sh uses mostly lower case variable names, while
git-rebase--interactive.sh uses mostly upper case variable names. For
consistency, downcase all variables, not just the ones that will be
shared between the two script files.

960ac5ff99 rebase -i: clarify in-editor documentation of "exec"
The hints in the current "instruction sheet" template look like so:

 # Rebase 3f14246..a1d7e01 onto 3f14246
 #
 # Commands:
 #  p, pick = use commit
 #  r, reword = use commit, but edit the commit message
 #  e, edit = use commit, but stop for amending
 #  s, squash = use commit, but meld into previous commit
 #  f, fixup = like "squash", but discard this commit's log message
 #  x <cmd>, exec <cmd> = Run a shell command <cmd>, and stop if it fails
 #
 # If you remove a line here THAT COMMIT WILL BE LOST.
 # However, if you remove everything, the rebase will be aborted.
 #

This does not make it clear that the format of each line is

	<insn> <commit id> <explanatory text that will be printed>

but the reader will probably infer that from the automatically
generated pick examples above it.

What about the "exec" instruction?  By analogy, I might imagine that
the format of that line is "exec <command> <explanatory text>", and
the "x <cmd>" hint does not address that question (at first I read it
as taking an argument <cmd> that is the name of a shell).  Meanwhile,
the mention of <cmd> makes the hints harder to scan as a table.

So remove the <cmd> and add some words to remind the reader that
"exec" runs a command named by the rest of the line.  To make room, it
is left to the manpage to explain that that command is run using
$SHELL and that nonzero status from that command will pause the
rebase.

Wording from Junio.

3b21a438c9 rebase: use explicit "--" with checkout
In the case of a ref/pathname conflict, checkout will
already do the right thing and checkout the ref. However,
for a non-existant ref, this has two advantages:

  1. If a file with that pathname exists, rebase will
     refresh the file from the index and then rebase the
     current branch instead of producing an error.

  2. If no such file exists, the error message using an
     explicit "--" is better:

       # before
       $ git rebase -i origin bogus
       error: pathspec 'bogus' did not match any file(s) known to git.
       Could not checkout bogus

       # after
       $ git rebase -i origin bogus
       fatal: invalid reference: bogus
       Could not checkout bogus

The problems seem to be trigger-able only through "git
rebase -i", as regular git-rebase checks the validity of the
branch parameter as a ref very early on. However, it doesn't
hurt to be defensive.

d3d7a421b1 rebase: better rearranging of fixup!/squash! lines with --autosquash
The current behvaior of --autosquash can duplicate fixup!/squash! lines
if they match multiple commits, and it can also apply them to commits
that come after them in the todo list. Even more oddly, a commit that
looks like "fixup! fixup!" will match itself and be duplicated in the
todo list.

Change the todo list rearranging to mark all commits as used as soon
as they are emitted, and to avoid emitting a fixup/squash commit if the
commit has already been marked as used.

2d6ca6ef55 git-rebase--interactive.sh: rework skip_unnecessary_picks
Commit cd035b1c introduced the exec command to interactive rebase.  In
doing so, it modified the way that skip_unnecessary_picks iterates through
the list of rebase commands so that it avoided collapsing multiple spaces
into a single space.  This is necessary for example if the argument to the
exec command contains a path with multiple spaces in it.

The way it did this was by reading each line of rebase commands into a
single variable, and then breaking the individual components out using
echo, sed, and cut.  It used the individual broken-out components for
decision making, and was still able to write the original line to the
output file from the variable it had saved it in.  But, since we only
really need to look at anything other than the first element of the line
when a 'pick' command is encountered, and even that is only necessary when
we are still searching for "unnecessary" picks, and since newer rebase
commands like 'exec' may not even require a sha1 field, let's make our read
statement parse its input into a "command" variable, and a "rest" variable,
and then only break out the sha1 from $rest, and call git-rev-parse, when
absolutely necessary.

I think this future proofs this subroutine, avoids calling git-rev-parse
unnecessarily, and possibly with bogus arguments, and still accomplishes
the goal of not mangling the $rest of the rebase command.

cd035b1cef rebase -i: add exec command to launch a shell command
The typical usage pattern would be to run a test (or simply a compilation
command) at given points in history.

The shell command is ran (from the worktree root), and the rebase is
stopped when the command fails, to give the user an opportunity to fix
the problem before continuing with "git rebase --continue".

This needs a little rework of skip_unnecessary_picks, which wasn't robust
enough to deal with lines like

  exec >"file    name with many spaces"

in the todolist. The new version extracts command, sha1 and rest from
each line, but outputs the line itself verbatim to avoid changing the
whitespace layout.

938791cd01 git-rebase--interactive.sh: use printf instead of echo to print commit message
On systems with an echo which defaults to the XSI-conformant behavior
(Solaris, or others using Ksh), echo will interpret certain backslashed
characters as control sequences.  This can cause a problem for interactive
rebase when it is used to rebase commits whose commit "subject" (the first
line) contains any of these backslashed sequences.  In this case, echo will
substitute the control sequence for the backslashed characters and either
the rebased commit message will differ from the original, or the rebase
process will fail.  Neither is desirable.

So work around this issue by replacing the echo statements used to print
out portions of the commit message, with printf.

Also, add a test to test for this breakage.

The post-rewrite support, in the form of the call to
'record_in_rewritten', was hidden in the arm where we have to record a
new commit for the user.  This meant that it was never invoked in the

[The test is designed to exercise both arms of the 'if' in question.]

Furthermore, recording the stopped-sha (the SHA1 of the commit before
the editing) suffered from a cut&paste error from die_with_patch and
used the wrong variable, hence it never recorded anything.

b499549401 Teach rebase the --no-ff option.
For git-rebase.sh, --no-ff is a synonym for --force-rebase.

For git-rebase--interactive.sh, --no-ff cherry-picks all the commits in
the rebased branch, instead of fast-forwarding over any unchanged commits.

--no-ff offers an alternative way to deal with reverted merges.  Instead of
"reverting the revert" you can use "rebase --no-ff" to recreate the branch
with entirely new commits (they're new because at the very least the
committer time is different).  This obviates the need to revert the
reversion, as you can re-merge the new topic branch directly.  Added an
addendum to revert-a-faulty-merge.txt describing the situation and how to

kind of expansion performed: "... the word that follows the redirection
operator shall be subjected to ...", and "Field Splitting" is not among
them).

Some clueless folks apparently decided that users need to be protected in

Output from "git grep -e '> *\$' -- '*.sh'" indicates that rebase-i

6bdcd0d2fc rebase -i: Retain user-edited commit messages after squash/fixup conflicts
When a squash/fixup fails due to a conflict, the user is required to
edit the commit message.  Previously, if further squash/fixup commands
followed the conflicting squash/fixup, this user-edited message was
discarded and a new automatically-generated commit message was
suggested.

Change the handling of conflicts within squash/fixup command series:
Whenever the user is required to intervene, consider the resulting
commit to be a new basis for the following squash/fixups and use its
commit message in later suggested combined commit messages.

a25eb13909 rebase -i: For fixup commands without squashes, do not start editor
If the "rebase -i" commands include a series of fixup commands without
any squash commands, then commit the combined commit using the commit
message of the corresponding "pick" without starting up the
commit-message editor.

f99e269c44 rebase -i: Simplify commit counting for generated commit messages
Read the old count from the first line of the old commit message
rather than counting the number of commit message blocks in the file.
This is simpler, faster, and more robust (e.g., it cannot be confused
by strange commit message contents).

5065ed296a rebase -i: Improve consistency of commit count in generated commit messages
Use the numeral "2" instead of the word "two" when two commits are
being interactively squashed.  This makes the treatment consistent
with that for higher numbers of commits.

after continuing, it would ask the user to edit the commit message
again.

230a456638 rebase -i: teach --onto A...B syntax
When rewriting commits on a topic branch, sometimes it is easier to
compare the version of commits before and after the rewrite if they are
based on the same commit that forked from the upstream. An earlier commit
by Junio (fixed up by the previous commit) gives "--onto A...B" syntax to
rebase command, and rebases on top of the merge base between A and B;
teach the same to the interactive version, too.
