Ever since commit 3f213981e4 ("add tests for rebasing merged history",
2013-06-06), t3425 has had tests which included the rebasing of merged
history and whose order of applied commits was checked. Unfortunately,
the tests expected different behavior depending on which backend was in
use. Implementing these checks was the following four lines (including
the TODO message) which were repeated verbatim three times in t3425:
#TODO: make order consistent across all flavors of rebase
test_run_rebase success 'e n o' ''
test_run_rebase success 'e n o' -m
test_run_rebase success 'n o e' -i
As part of the effort to reduce differences between the rebase backends
so that users get more uniform behavior, let's define the correct
behavior and modify the different backends so they all get the right
answer. It turns out that the difference in behavior here is entirely
due to topological sorting; since some backends require topological
sorting (particularly when --rebase-merges is specified), require it for
all modes. Modify the am and merge backends to implement this.
Performance Considerations:
I was unable to measure any appreciable performance difference with this
change. Trying to control the run-to-run variation was difficult; I
eventually found a headless beefy box that I could ssh into, which
seemed to help. Using git.git, I ran the following testcase:
$ git reset --hard v2.20.0-rc1~2
$ time git rebase --quiet v2.20.0-rc0~16
I first ran once to warm any disk caches, then ran five subsequent runs
and recorded the times of those five. I observed the following results
for the average time:
Before this change:
"real" timing: 1.340s (standard deviation: 0.040s)
"user" timing: 1.050s (standard deviation: 0.041s)
"sys" timing: 0.270s (standard deviation: 0.011s)
After this change:
"real" timing: 1.327s (standard deviation: 0.065s)
"user" timing: 1.031s (standard deviation: 0.061s)
"sys" timing: 0.280s (standard deviation: 0.014s)
Measurements aside, I would expect the timing for walking revisions to
be dwarfed by the work involved in creating and applying patches, so
this isn't too surprising. Further, while somewhat counter-intuitive,
it is possible that turning on topological sorting is actually a
performance improvement: by way of comparison, turning on --topo-order
made fast-export faster (see
https://public-inbox.org/git/20090211135640.GA19600@coredump.intra.peff.net/).

The post-rewrite hook is supposed to be invoked for each rewritten
commit. The fact that a commit was selected and processed by the rebase
operation (even though when we hit an error a user said it had no more
useful changes), suggests we should write an entry for it. In
particular, let's treat it as an empty commit trivially squashed into
its parent.
This brings the rebase--am and rebase--merge backends in sync with the
behavior of the interactive rebase backend.

The post-rewrite hook is documented as being invoked by commands that
rewrite commits such as commit --amend and rebase, and that it will
be called for each rewritten commit.
Apparently, the three backends handled --skip'ed commits differently:
am: treat the skipped commit as though it weren't rewritten
merge: same as 'am' backend
interactive: treat skipped commits as having been rewritten to empty
(view them as an empty fixup to their parent)
For now, just add a testcase documenting the different behavior (use
--keep to force usage of the interactive machinery even though we have
no empty commits). A subsequent commit will remove the inconsistency in
--skip handling.

The oneline notwithstanding, 13374987dd (completion: use _gitcompbuiltin

it offers.
Necessarily, this must fail when built with NO_PERL because send-email
itself is a Perl script. Which means that we need the PERL prerequisite

In 321fd823 ("run-command: mark path lookup errors with ENOENT",
2018-10-24), we rewrote the logic to execute a command by looking
in the directories on $PATH; as a side effect, a request to run a
command that is not found on $PATH is noticed even before a child
process is forked to execute it.
We however stopped to report an exec failure in such a case by
mistake. Add a logic to report the error unless silent-exec-failure
is requested, to match the original code.

Commit d8981c3f88 ("format-patch: do not let its diff-options affect
--range-diff", 2018-11-30) taught `show_range_diff()` to accept a
NULL-pointer as an indication that it should use its own "reasonable
default". That fixed a regression from a5170794 ("Merge branch
'ab/range-diff-no-patch'", 2018-11-18), but unfortunately it introduced
a regression of its own.
In particular, it means we forget the `file` member of the diff options,
so rather than placing a range-diff in the cover-letter, we write it to
stdout. In order to fix this, rewrite the two callers adjusted by
d8981c3f88 to instead create a "dummy" set of diff options where they
only fill in the fields we absolutely require, such as output file and
color.
Modify and extend the existing tests to try and verify that the right
contents end up in the right place.
Don't revert `show_range_diff()`, i.e., let it keep accepting NULL.
Rather than removing what is dead code and figuring out it isn't
actually dead and we've broken 2.20, just leave it for now.

"git rebase --stat" to transplant a piece of history onto a totally
unrelated history were not working before and silently showed wrong
result. With the recent reimplementation in C, it started to instead
die with an error message, as the original logic was not prepared
to cope with this case. This has now been fixed.
* js/rebase-stat-unrelated-fix:
rebase --stat: fix when rebasing to an unrelated history
When rebasing to a commit history that has no common commits with the
current branch, there is no merge base. In diffstat mode, this means
that we cannot compare to the merge base, but we have to compare to the
empty tree instead.
Also, if running in verbose diffstat mode, we should not output
Changes from <merge-base> to <onto>
as that does not make sense without any merge base.
Note: neither scripted nor built-in versoin of `git rebase` were
prepared for this situation well. We use this opportunity not only to
fix the bug(s), but also to make both versions' output consistent in
this instance. And add a regression test to keep this working in all
eternity.

The scripted version of "rebase" honored the `GIT_REFLOG_ACTION`,
and some automation scripts expected the reflog entries to be
prefixed with "rebase -i", not "rebase", after running "rebase -i".
This regressed in the reimplementation in C.
Fix that, and add a regression test, both with `GIT_REFLOG_ACTION`
set and unset.
Note: the reflog message for "rebase finished" did *not* honor
GIT_REFLOG_ACTION, and as we are very late in the v2.20.0-rcN phase,
we leave that bug for later (as it seems that that bug has been with
us from the very beginning).

The advice to run 'git replace --convert-graft-file' added in

Test scripts checking 'git daemon' stop the daemon with a TERM signal,
and the 'stop_git_daemon' helper checks the daemon's exit status to
make sure that it indeed died because of that signal.
This check is bogus since 03c39b3458 (t/lib-git-daemon: use
test_match_signal, 2016-06-24), for two reasons:
- Right after killing 'git daemon', 'stop_git_daemon' saves its exit
status in a variable, but since 03c39b3458 the condition checking
the exit status looks at '$?', which at this point is not the exit
status of 'git daemon', but that of the variable assignment, i.e.
it's always 0.
- The unexpected exit status should abort the whole test script with
'error', but it doesn't, because 03c39b3458 forgot to negate
'test_match_signal's exit status in the condition.
This patch fixes both issues.
