20351bb06b rebase: use 'git stash store' to simplify logic
rebase has no reason to know about the implementation of the stash.  In
the case when applying the autostash results in conflicts, replace the
relevant code in finish_rebase () to simply call 'git stash store'.

587947750b rebase: implement --[no-]autostash and rebase.autostash
This new feature allows a rebase to be executed on a dirty worktree or
index.  It works by creating a temporary "dangling merge commit" out
of the worktree and index changes (via 'git stash create'), and
automatically applying it after a successful rebase or abort.

rebase stores the SHA-1 hex of the temporary merge commit, along with
the rest of the rebase state, in either
.git/{rebase-merge,rebase-apply}/autostash depending on the kind of
rebase.  Since $state_dir is automatically removed at the end of a
successful rebase or abort, so is the autostash.

The advantage of this approach is that we do not affect the normal
stash's reflogs, making the autostash invisible to the end-user.  This
means that you can use 'git stash' during a rebase as usual.

When the autostash application results in a conflict, we push
$state_dir/autostash onto the normal stash and remove $state_dir
ending the rebase.  The user can inspect the stash, and pop or drop at
any time.

Most significantly, this feature means that a caller like pull (with
pull.rebase set to true) can easily be patched to remove the
require_clean_work_tree restriction.

f5f758a5df rebase: prepare to do generic housekeeping
On successful completion of a rebase in git-rebase--$backend.sh, the
$backend script cleans up on its own and exits.  The cleanup routine
is however, independent of the $backend, and each $backend script
unnecessarily duplicates this work:

    rm -rf "$state_dir"
    git gc --auto

Prepare git-rebase.sh for later patches that return control from each
$backend script back to us, for performing this generic cleanup
routine.  The code that this patch adds is currently unreachable, and
will only start to be used when git-rebase--$backend.sh scripts are
taught to return control in later patches.

Another advantage is that git-rebase.sh can implement a generic
finish_rebase() to possibly do additional tasks in addition to the
cleanup.

ea70980030 rebase: find orig_head unambiguously
When we 'git rebase $upstream', git uses 'rev-parse --verify
$current_branch' to find ORIG_HEAD.  But if $current_branch
is ambiguous, 'rev-parse --verify' emits a warning and returns
a SHA1 anyway.  When the wrong ambiguous choice is used,
git-rebase fails non-gracefully:  it emits a warning about
failing to lock $current_branch, an error about being unable to
checkout $current_branch again, and it might even decide the
rebase is a fast-forward when it is not.

In the 'rebase $upstream' case, we already know the unambiguous
spelling of $current_branch is "HEAD".  Fix git-rebase to find
$orig_head unambiguously.

Add a test in t3400-rebase.sh which creates an ambiguous branch
name and rebases it implicitly with 'git rebase $other'.

c021fbf615 rebase: remove obsolete and unused LONG_USAGE which breaks xgettext
Since there is a modern OPTIONS_SPEC variable in use in this script,
the obsolete USAGE and LONG_USAGE variables are no longer used.
Remove them.

In addition, the obsolete LONG_USAGE variable has the following
message in it:

    A'\''--B'\''--C'\''

And such complex LONG_USAGE message will break xgettext when
extracting l10n messages (but if single quotes are removed from the
message, xgettext works fine on 'git-rebase.sh').

Allow --root to be specified to rebase -i without --onto, making it
possible to edit and re-order all commits right back to the root(s).

If there is a conflict to be resolved when applying the first change,
the user will expect a sane index and working tree to get sensible
behaviour from git-diff and friends, so create a sentinel commit with an
empty tree to rebase onto. Automatically squash the sentinel with any
commits rebased directly onto it, so they end up as root commits in
their own right and retain their authorship and commit message.

Implicitly use rebase -i for non-interactive rebase of --root without
an --onto argument now that rebase -i can correctly do this.

f2b6a19907 rebase --root: print usage on too many args
Just like

  git rebase --onto newbase upstream branch error

displays the usage message, so should clearly

  git rebase --onto newbase --root branch error

, but it doesn't. Instead, it ignores both "branch" and "error" and
rebases the current HEAD. This is because we try to match the number
of remainging arguments "$#", which fails to match "1" argument and
matches the "*" that really should have been a "0".

Make sure we display usage information when too many arguments are
given. Also fail-fast in case of similar bugs in the future by
matching on exactly 0 arguments and failing on unknown numbers.

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.

035b5bf643 pull,rebase: handle GIT_WORK_TREE better
You can't currently run git-pull or git-rebase from outside
of the work tree, even with GIT_WORK_TREE set, due to an
overeager require_work_tree function. Commit e2eb527
documents this problem and provides the infrastructure for a
fix, but left it to later commits to audit and update
individual scripts.

Changing these scripts to use require_work_tree_exists is
easy to verify. We immediately call cd_to_toplevel, anyway.
Therefore no matter which function we use, the state
afterwards is one of:

  1. We have a work tree, and we are at the top level.

  2. We don't have a work tree, and we have died.

The only catch is that we must also make sure no code that
ran before the cd_to_toplevel assumed that we were already
in the working tree.

In this case, we will only have included shell libraries and
called set_reflog_action, neither of which care about the
current working directory at all.

The "restore" can be misinterpreted to imply that the original branch
was somehow in a broken state during the rebase operation. It is also
not completely clear what "the original branch" is --- is it the
branch that was checked out before the rebase operation was called or
is the the branch that is being rebased (it is the latter)? Although
both issues are made clear in the DESCRIPTION section, let us also
make the entry in the OPTIONS secion more clear.

Also remove the term "rebasing process" from the usage text, since the

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.

command line processing was factored out into git-rebase.sh in cf432ca

flexibility was lost. Give back that flexibility to interactive and

15a147e618 rebase: use @{upstream} if no upstream specified
'git rebase' without arguments is currently not supported. Make it
default to 'git rebase @{upstream}'. That is also what 'git pull
[--rebase]' defaults to, so it only makes sense that 'git rebase'
defaults to the same thing.

Defaulting to @{upstream} will make it possible to run e.g. 'git
rebase -i' without arguments, which is probably a quite common use
case. It also improves the scenario where you have multiple branches
that rebase against a remote-tracking branch, where you currently have
to choose between the extra network delay of 'git pull' or the
slightly awkward keys to enter 'git rebase @{u}'.

The error reporting when no upstream is configured for the current
branch or when no branch is checked out is reused from git-pull.sh. A
function is extracted into git-parse-remote.sh for this purpose.

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.

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.

99de0640f2 rebase: improve detection of rebase in progress
Detect early on if a rebase is in progress and what type of rebase it
is (interactive, merge-based or am-based). This prepares for further
refactoring where am-based rebase will be dispatched to
git-rebase--am.sh and merge-based rebase will be dispatched to
git-rebase--merge.sh.

The idea is to use the same variables whether the type of rebase was
detected from rebase-apply/ or rebase-merge/ directories or from the
command line options. This will make the code more readable and will
later also make it easier to dispatch to the type-specific scripts.

Also show a consistent error message independent of the type of rebase
that was in progress and remove the obsolete wording about being in
the middle of a 'patch application', since that (an existing
"$GIT_DIR"/rebase-apply/applying) aborts 'git rebase' at an earlier
stage.

02ac45fa62 rebase: refactor reading of state
The code reading the state saved in $merge_dir or $rebase_dir is
currently spread out in many places, making it harder to read and to
introduce additional state. Extract this code into one method that
reads the state. Only extract the code associated with the state that
is written when the rebase is initiated. Leave the state that changes
for each commmit, at least for now.

Currently, when resuming a merge-based rebase using --continue or
--skip, move_to_original_branch (via finish_rb_merge) will be called
without head_name and orig_head set. These variables are then lazily
read in move_to_original_branch if head_name is not set (together with
onto, which is unnecessarily read again). Change this by always
eagerly reading the state, for both am-based and merge-based rebase,
in the --continue and --skip cases. Note that this does not change the
behavior for am-based rebase, which read the state eagerly even before
this commit.

Reading the state eagerly means that part of the state will sometimes
be read unnecessarily. One example is when the rebase is continued,
but stops again at another merge conflict. Another example is when the
rebase is aborted. However, since both of these cases involve user
interaction, the delay is hopefully not noticeable. The
call_merge/continue_merge loop is not affected.

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.

contains whitespace.

produced by the higher level command that is related to "diff" only
because internally it is implemented in terms of it.

For that matter, I have a feeling that format-patch should not even look
at diff.renames, but we seem to have been doing this for a long time so
there is no easy way to fix this thinko.

In any case, here is a much straightforward fix for "rebase".

bffd750adf rebase: improve error message when upstream argument is missing
Strip out options before checking for a missing upstream argument.
Before:

 $ git rebase -m
 shift: 426: can't shift that many

After:

 $ git rebase -m
 Usage: git rebase ...

While at it, fix the usage message to explain that the upstream
argument is mandatory.

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
use --no-ff to handle it.

96e19488f1 rebase: invoke post-rewrite hook
We have to deal with two separate code paths: a normal rebase, which
actually goes through git-am; and rebase {-m|-s}.

The only small issue with both is that they need to remember the
original sha1 across a possible conflict resolution.  rebase -m
already puts this information in $dotest/current, and we just
introduce a similar file for git-am.

Note that in git-am, the hook really only runs when coming from
git-rebase: the code path that sets the $dotest/original-commit file
is guarded by a test for $dotest/rebasing.

This regression was introduced by commit 0aa958d (rebase: replace
antiquated sed invocation, 2010-01-24), which changed the invocation of
"git rev-list | sed" to "git log".

It can be reproduced by something like this:
$ git rebase -s recursive origin/master

9f21e97ddc rebase: fix --onto A...B parsing and add tests
The previous patch didn't parse "rebase --onto A...B" correctly when A
isn't an empty string. It also tried to be careful to notice a case in
which there are more than one merge bases, but forgot to give --all option
to merge-base, making the test pointless.

Fix these problems and add a test script to verify. Improvements to the
script to parse A...B syntax was taken from review comments by Johannes
Schindelin.

e1622bfcba Protect scripted Porcelains from GREP_OPTIONS insanity
If the user has exported the GREP_OPTIONS environment variable, the output
from "grep" and "egrep" in scripted Porcelains may be different from what
they expect.  For example, we may want to count number of matching lines,
by "grep" piped to "wc -l", and GREP_OPTIONS=-C3 will break such use.

The approach taken by this change to address this issue is to protect only
our own use of grep/egrep.  Because we do not unset it at the beginning of
our scripts, hook scripts run from the scripted Porcelains are exposed to
the same insanity this environment variable causes when grep/egrep is used
to implement logic (e.g. "grep | wc -l"), and it is entirely up to the
hook scripts to protect themselves.

On the other hand, applypatch-msg hook may want to show offending words in
the proposed commit log message using grep to the end user, and the user
might want to set GREP_OPTIONS=--color to paint the match more visibly.
The approach to protect only our own use without unsetting the environment
variable globally will allow this use case.

61dfa1bb67 "rebase --onto A...B" replays history on the merge base between A and B
This is in spirit similar to "checkout A...B".  To re-queue a new set of
patches for a series that the original author prepared to apply on 'next'
on the same base as before, you would do something like this:

    $ git checkout next^0
    $ git am -s rerolled-series.mbox
    $ git rebase --onto next...jh/notes next

The first two commands recreates commits to be rebased as the original
author intended (i.e. applies directly on top of 'next'), and the rebase
command replays that history on top of the same commit the series being
replaced was built on (which is typically much older than the tip of
'next').
