f22e4e1a3c rebase -i: rewrite the rest of init_revisions_and_shortrevisions() in C
This rewrites the part of init_revisions_and_shortrevisions() needed by
`--complete-action` (which initialize $shortrevisions) from shell to C.

When `upstream` is empty, it means that the user launched a `rebase
--root`, and `onto` contains the ID of an empty commit.  As a range
between an empty commit and `head` is not really meaningful, `onto` is
not used to initialize `shortrevisions` in this case.

The corresponding arguments passed to `--complete-action` are then
dropped, and init_revisions_and_shortrevisions() is stripped from
git-rebase--interactive.sh

6ab54d17be rebase -i: implement the logic to initialize $revisions in C
This rewrites the part of init_revisions_and_shortrevisions() needed by
`--make-script` from shell to C.  The new version is called
get_revision_ranges(), and is a static function inside of
rebase--helper.c.  As this does not initialize $shortrevision, the
original shell version is not yet stripped.

Unlike init_revisions_and_shortrevisions(), get_revision_ranges()
doesn’t write $squash_onto to the state directory, it’s done by the
handler of `--make-script` instead.

Finally, this drops the $revision argument passed to `--make-script` in
git-rebase--interactive.sh, and rebase--helper is changed accordingly.

91f0d95dcb rebase -i: remove unused modes and functions
This removes the modes `--skip-unnecessary-picks`, `--append-todo-help`,
and `--checkout-onto` from rebase--helper.c, the functions of
git-rebase--interactive.sh that were rendered useless by the rewrite of
complete_action(), and append_todo_help_to_file() from
rebase-interactive.c.

skip_unnecessary_picks() and checkout_onto() becomes static, as they are
only used inside of the sequencer.

b97e187364 rebase -i: rewrite complete_action() in C
This rewrites complete_action() from shell to C.

A new mode is added to rebase--helper (`--complete-action`), as well as
a new flag (`--autosquash`).

Finally, complete_action() is stripped from git-rebase--interactive.sh.

The original complete_action() would return the code 2 when the todo
list contained no actions.  This was a special case for rebase -i and
-p; git-rebase.sh would then apply the autostash, delete the state
directory, and die with the message "Nothing to do".  This cleanup is
rewritten in C instead of returning 2.  As rebase -i no longer returns
2, the comment describing this behaviour in git-rebase.sh is updated to
reflect this change.

The message "Nothing to do" is now printed with error(), and so becomes
"error: nothing to do".  Some tests in t3404 check this value, so they
are updated to fit this change.

The first check might seem useless as we write "noop" to the todo list
if it is empty.  Actually, the todo list might contain commented
commands (ie. empty commits).  In this case, complete_action() won’t
write "noop", and will abort without starting the editor.

2c58483a59 rebase -i: rewrite setup_reflog_action() in C
This rewrites (the misnamed) setup_reflog_action() from shell to C. The
new version is called prepare_branch_to_be_rebased().

A new command is added to rebase--helper.c, “checkout-base”, as well as
a new flag, “verbose”, to avoid silencing the output of the checkout
operation called by checkout_base_commit().

The function `run_git_checkout()` will also be used in the next commit,
therefore its code is not part of `checkout_base_commit()`.

The shell version is then stripped in favour of a call to the helper.

As $GIT_REFLOG_ACTION is no longer set at the first call of
checkout_onto(), a call to comment_for_reflog() is added at the
beginning of this function.

This rewrites the edit-todo functionality from shell to C.

To achieve that, a new command mode, `edit-todo`, is added, and the

145e05ac44 rebase -i: rewrite append_todo_help() in C
This rewrites append_todo_help() from shell to C. It also incorporates
some parts of initiate_action() and complete_action() that also write
help texts to the todo file.

This also introduces the source file rebase-interactive.c. This file
will contain functions necessary for interactive rebase that are too
specific for the sequencer, and is part of libgit.a.

Two flags are added to rebase--helper.c: one to call
append_todo_help() (`--append-todo-help`), and another one to tell
append_todo_help() to write the help text suited for the edit-todo
mode (`--write-edit-todo`).

Finally, append_todo_help() is removed from git-rebase--interactive.sh
to use `rebase--helper --append-todo-help` instead.

21d0764c82 rebase -i --root: let the sequencer handle even the initial part
In this developer's earlier attempt to accelerate interactive rebases by
converting large parts from Unix shell script into portable, performant
C, the --root handling was specifically excluded (to simplify the task a
little bit; it still took over a year to get that reduced set of patches
into Git proper).

This patch ties up that loose end: now only --preserve-merges uses the
slow Unix shell script implementation to perform the interactive rebase.

As the rebase--helper reports progress to stderr (unlike the scripted
interactive rebase, which reports it to stdout, of all places), we have
to adjust a couple of tests that did not expect that for `git rebase -i
--root`.

This patch fixes -- at long last! -- the really old bug reported in
6a6bc5bdc4 (add tests for rebasing root, 2013-06-06) that rebasing with
--root *always* rewrote the root commit, even if there were no changes.

The bug still persists in --preserve-merges mode, of course, but that
mode will be deprecated as soon as the new --rebase-merges mode
stabilizes, anyway.

7543f6f444 rebase -i: introduce --rebase-merges=[no-]rebase-cousins
When running `git rebase --rebase-merges` non-interactively with an
ancestor of HEAD as <upstream> (or leaving the todo list unmodified),
we would ideally recreate the exact same commits as before the rebase.

However, if there are commits in the commit range <upstream>.. that do not
have <upstream> as direct ancestor (i.e. if `git log <upstream>..` would
show commits that are omitted by `git log --ancestry-path <upstream>..`),
this is currently not the case: we would turn them into commits that have
<upstream> as direct ancestor.

Let's illustrate that with a diagram:

        C
      /   \
A - B - E - F
  \   /
    D

Currently, after running `git rebase -i --rebase-merges B`, the new branch
structure would be (pay particular attention to the commit `D`):

       --- C' --
      /         \
A - B ------ E' - F'
      \    /
        D'

This is not really preserving the branch topology from before! The
reason is that the commit `D` does not have `B` as ancestor, and
therefore it gets rebased onto `B`.

This is unintuitive behavior. Even worse, when recreating branch
structure, most use cases would appear to want cousins *not* to be
rebased onto the new base commit. For example, Git for Windows (the
heaviest user of the Git garden shears, which served as the blueprint
for --rebase-merges) frequently merges branches from `next` early, and
these branches certainly do *not* want to be rebased. In the example
above, the desired outcome would look like this:

       --- C' --
      /         \
A - B ------ E' - F'
  \        /
   -- D' --

Let's introduce the term "cousins" for such commits ("D" in the
example), and let's not rebase them by default. For hypothetical
use cases where cousins *do* need to be rebased, `git rebase
--rebase=merges=rebase-cousins` needs to be used.

8f6aed71d2 rebase: introduce the --rebase-merges option
Once upon a time, this here developer thought: wouldn't it be nice if,
say, Git for Windows' patches on top of core Git could be represented as
a thicket of branches, and be rebased on top of core Git in order to
maintain a cherry-pick'able set of patch series?

The original attempt to answer this was: git rebase --preserve-merges.

However, that experiment was never intended as an interactive option,
and it only piggy-backed on git rebase --interactive because that
command's implementation looked already very, very familiar: it was
designed by the same person who designed --preserve-merges: yours truly.

Some time later, some other developer (I am looking at you, Andreas!
;-)) decided that it would be a good idea to allow --preserve-merges to
be combined with --interactive (with caveats!) and the Git maintainer
(well, the interim Git maintainer during Junio's absence, that is)
agreed, and that is when the glamor of the --preserve-merges design
started to fall apart rather quickly and unglamorously.

The reason? In --preserve-merges mode, the parents of a merge commit (or
for that matter, of *any* commit) were not stated explicitly, but were
*implied* by the commit name passed to the `pick` command.

This made it impossible, for example, to reorder commits. Not to mention
to move commits between branches or, deity forbid, to split topic branches
into two.

Alas, these shortcomings also prevented that mode (whose original
purpose was to serve Git for Windows' needs, with the additional hope
that it may be useful to others, too) from serving Git for Windows'
needs.

Five years later, when it became really untenable to have one unwieldy,
big hodge-podge patch series of partly related, partly unrelated patches
in Git for Windows that was rebased onto core Git's tags from time to
time (earning the undeserved wrath of the developer of the ill-fated
git-remote-hg series that first obsoleted Git for Windows' competing
approach, only to be abandoned without maintainer later) was really
untenable, the "Git garden shears" were born [*1*/*2*]: a script,
piggy-backing on top of the interactive rebase, that would first
determine the branch topology of the patches to be rebased, create a
pseudo todo list for further editing, transform the result into a real
todo list (making heavy use of the `exec` command to "implement" the
missing todo list commands) and finally recreate the patch series on
top of the new base commit.

That was in 2013. And it took about three weeks to come up with the
design and implement it as an out-of-tree script. Needless to say, the
implementation needed quite a few years to stabilize, all the while the
design itself proved itself sound.

With this patch, the goodness of the Git garden shears comes to `git
rebase -i` itself. Passing the `--rebase-merges` option will generate
a todo list that can be understood readily, and where it is obvious
how to reorder commits. New branches can be introduced by inserting
`label` commands and calling `merge <label>`. And once this mode will
have become stable and universally accepted, we can deprecate the design
mistake that was `--preserve-merges`.

4c68e7ddb5 sequencer: introduce the merge command
This patch is part of the effort to reimplement `--preserve-merges` with
a substantially improved design, a design that has been developed in the
Git for Windows project to maintain the dozens of Windows-specific patch
series on top of upstream Git.

The previous patch implemented the `label` and `reset` commands to label
commits and to reset to labeled commits. This patch adds the `merge`
command, with the following syntax:

	merge [-C <commit>] <rev> # <oneline>

The <commit> parameter in this instance is the *original* merge commit,
whose author and message will be used for the merge commit that is about
to be created.

The <rev> parameter refers to the (possibly rewritten) revision to
merge. Let's see an example of a todo list (the initial `label onto`
command is an auto-generated convenience so that the label `onto` can be
used to refer to the revision onto which we rebase):

	label onto

	# Branch abc
	reset onto
	pick deadbeef Hello, world!
	label abc

	reset onto
	pick cafecafe And now for something completely different
	merge -C baaabaaa abc # Merge the branch 'abc' into master

To edit the merge commit's message (a "reword" for merges, if you will),
use `-c` (lower-case) instead of `-C`; this convention was borrowed from
`git commit` that also supports `-c` and `-C` with similar meanings.

To create *new* merges, i.e. without copying the commit message from an
existing commit, simply omit the `-C <commit>` parameter (which will
open an editor for the merge message):

	merge abc

This comes in handy when splitting a branch into two or more branches.

Note: this patch only adds support for recursive merges, to keep things
simple. Support for octopus merges will be added later in a separate
patch series, support for merges using strategies other than the
recursive merge is left for the future.

9055e401dd sequencer: introduce new commands to reset the revision
In the upcoming commits, we will teach the sequencer to rebase merges.
This will be done in a very different way from the unfortunate design of
`git rebase --preserve-merges` (which does not allow for reordering
commits, or changing the branch topology).

The main idea is to introduce new todo list commands, to support
labeling the current revision with a given name, resetting the current
revision to a previous state, and  merging labeled revisions.

This idea was developed in Git for Windows' Git garden shears (that are
used to maintain Git for Windows' "thicket of branches" on top of
upstream Git), and this patch is part of the effort to make it available
to a wider audience, as well as to make the entire process more robust
(by implementing it in a safe and portable language rather than a Unix
shell script).

This commit implements the commands to label, and to reset to, given
revisions. The syntax is:

	label <name>
	reset <name>

Internally, the `label <name>` command creates the ref
`refs/rewritten/<name>`. This makes it possible to work with the labeled
revisions interactively, or in a scripted fashion (e.g. via the todo
list command `exec`).

These temporary refs are removed upon sequencer_remove_state(), so that
even a `git rebase --abort` cleans them up.

We disallow '#' as label because that character will be used as separator
in the upcoming `merge` command.

Later in this patch series, we will mark the `refs/rewritten/` refs as
worktree-local, to allow for interactive rebases to be run in parallel in
worktrees linked to the same repository.

As typos happen, a failed `label` or `reset` command will be rescheduled
immediately. As the previous code to reschedule a command is embedded
deeply in the pick/fixup/squash code path, we simply duplicate the few
lines. This will allow us to extend the new code path easily for the
upcoming `merge` command.

The main motivation for this patch was to allow one to run 'git rebase

with another --exec command.

2f5f469bc4 rebase: update invocation of rebase dot-sourced scripts
Due to historical reasons, the backend scriptlets for "git rebase"
are structured a bit unusually. As originally designed,
dot-sourcing them from "git rebase" was sufficient to invoke the
specific backend.

However, it was later discovered that some shell implementations
(e.g. FreeBSD 9.x) misbehaved by continuing to execute statements
following a top-level "return" rather than returning control to
the next statement in "git rebase" after dot-sourcing the
scriptlet. To work around this shortcoming, the whole body of
git-rebase--$backend.sh was made into a shell function
git_rebase__$backend, and then the very last line of the scriptlet
called that function.

A more normal architecture is for a dot-sourced scriptlet merely
to define functions (thus acting as a function library), and for
those functions to be called by the script doing the dot-sourcing.
Migrate to this arrangement by moving the git_rebase__$backend
call from the end of a scriptlet into "git rebase" itself.

While at it, remove the large comment block from each scriptlet
explaining this historic anomaly since it serves no purpose under
the new normalized architecture in which a scriptlet is merely a
function library.

fbd7a23237 rebase: introduce and use pseudo-ref REBASE_HEAD
The new command `git rebase --show-current-patch` is useful for seeing
the commit related to the current rebase state. Some however may find
the "git show" command behind it too limiting. You may want to
increase context lines, do a diff that ignores whitespaces...

For these advanced use cases, the user can execute any command they
want with the new pseudo ref REBASE_HEAD.

This also helps show where the stopped commit is from, which is hard
to see from the previous patch which implements --show-current-patch.

should not need to peek into .git directory. The new option is

ed5144d7eb rebase -p: fix incorrect commit message when calling git merge.
Since commit dd6fb0053 ("rebase -p: fix quoting when calling `git
merge`"), commit message of the merge commit being rebased is passed to
the merge command using a subshell executing 'git rev-parse --sq-quote'.

Double quotes are needed around this subshell so that, newlines are
kept for the git merge command.

Before this patch, following merge message:

    "Merge mybranch into mynewbranch

    Awesome commit."

becomes:

    "Merge mybranch into mynewbranch Awesome commit."

after a rebase -p.

a6c612b528 rebase: add --allow-empty-message option
This option allows commits with empty commit messages to be rebased,
matching the same option in git-commit and git-cherry-pick. While empty
log messages are frowned upon, sometimes one finds them in older
repositories (e.g. translated from another VCS [0]), or have other
reasons for desiring them. The option is available in git-commit and
git-cherry-pick, so it is natural to make other git tools play nicely
with them. Adding this as an option allows the default to be "give the
user a chance to fix", while not interrupting the user's workflow
otherwise [1].

  [0]: https://stackoverflow.com/q/8542304
  [1]: https://public-inbox.org/git/7vd33afqjh.fsf@alter.siamese.dyndns.org/

To implement this, add a new --allow-empty-message flag. Then propagate
it to all calls of 'git commit', 'git cherry-pick', and 'git rebase--helper'
within the rebase scripts.

dd6fb0053c rebase -p: fix quoting when calling git merge
It has been reported that strategy arguments are not passed to `git
merge` correctly when rebasing interactively, preserving merges.

The reason is that the strategy arguments are already quoted, and then
quoted again.

This fixes https://github.com/git-for-windows/git/issues/1321

c44a4c650c rebase -i: rearrange fixup/squash lines using the rebase--helper
This operation has quadratic complexity, which is especially painful
on Windows, where shell scripts are *already* slow (mainly due to the
overhead of the POSIX emulation layer).

Let's reimplement this with linear complexity (using a hash map to
match the commits' subject lines) for the common case; Sadly, the
fixup/squash feature's design neglected performance considerations,
allowing arbitrary prefixes (read: `fixup! hell` will match the
commit subject `hello world`), which means that we are stuck with
quadratic performance in the worst case.

The reimplemented logic also happens to fix a bug where commented-out
lines (representing empty patches) were dropped by the previous code.

While at it, clarify how the fixup/squash feature works in `git rebase
-i`'s man page.

cdac2b01ff rebase -i: skip unnecessary picks using the rebase--helper
In particular on Windows, where shell scripts are even more expensive
than on MacOSX or Linux, it makes sense to move a loop that forks
Git at least once for every line in the todo list into a builtin.

Note: The original code did not try to skip unnecessary picks of root
commits but punts instead (probably --root was not considered common
enough of a use case to bother optimizing). We do the same, for now.

1f4044af7f rebase -i: do not invent onelines when expanding/collapsing SHA-1s
To avoid problems with short SHA-1s that become non-unique during the
rebase, we rewrite the todo script with short/long SHA-1s before and
after letting the user edit the script. Since SHA-1s are not intuitive
for humans, rebase -i also provides the onelines (commit message
subjects) in the script, purely for the user's convenience.

It is very possible to generate a todo script via different means than
rebase -i and then to let rebase -i run with it; In this case, these
onelines are not required.

And this is where the expand/collapse machinery has a bug: it *expects*
that oneline, and failing to find one reuses the previous SHA-1 as
"oneline".

It was most likely an oversight, and made implementation in the (quite
limiting) shell script language less convoluted. However, we are about
to reimplement performance-critical parts in C (and due to spawning a
git.exe process for every single line of the todo script, the
expansion/collapsing of the SHA-1s *is* performance-hampering on
Windows), therefore let's fix this bug to make cross-validation with the
C version of that functionality possible.
