When the user runs 'git rebase -i --update-refs', the end message still
says only
Successfully rebased and updated <HEAD-ref>.
Update the sequencer to collect the successful (and unsuccessful) ref
updates due to the --update-refs option, so the end message now says
Successfully rebased and updated <HEAD-ref>.
Updated the following refs with --update-refs:
refs/heads/first
refs/heads/third
Failed to update the following refs with --update-refs:
refs/heads/second
To test this output, we need to be very careful to format the expected
error to drop the leading tab characters. Also, we need to be aware that
the verbose output from 'git rebase' is writing progress lines which
don't use traditional newlines but clear the line after every progress
item is complete. When opening the error file in an editor, these lines
are visible, but when looking at the diff in a terminal those lines
disappear because of the characters that delete the previous characters.
Use 'sed' to clear those progress lines and clear the tabs so we can get
an exact match on our expected output.

When using the 'git rebase -i --update-refs' option, the todo list is
populated with 'update-ref' commands for all tip refs in the history
that is being rebased. Refs that are checked out by some worktree are
instead added as a comment to warn the user that they will not be
updated.
Until now, this included the HEAD ref, which is being updated by the
rebase process itself, regardless of the --update-refs option. Remove
the comment in this case by ignoring any decorations that match the HEAD
ref.

An interactive rebase provides opportunities for the user to edit the
todo list. The --update-refs option initializes the list with some
'update-ref <ref>' steps, but the user could add these manually.
Further, the user could add or remove these steps during pauses in the
interactive rebase.
Add a new method, todo_list_filter_update_refs(), that scans a todo_list
and compares it to the stored update-refs file. There are two actions
that can happen at this point:
1. If a '<ref>/<before>/<after>' triple in the update-refs file does not
have a matching 'update-ref <ref>' command in the todo-list _and_ the
<after> value is the null OID, then remove that triple. Here, the
user removed the 'update-ref <ref>' command before it was executed,
since if it was executed then the <after> value would store the
commit at that position.
2. If a 'update-ref <ref>' command in the todo-list does not have a
matching '<ref>/<before>/<after>' triple in the update-refs file,
then insert a new one. Store the <before> value to be the current
OID pointed at by <ref>. This is handled inside of the
init_update_ref_record() helper method.
We can test that this works by rewriting the todo-list several times in
the course of a rebase. Check that each ref is locked or unlocked for
updates after each todo-list update. We can also verify that the ref
update fails if a concurrent process updates one of the refs after the
rebase process records the "locked" ref location.
To help these tests, add a new 'set_replace_editor' helper that will
replace the todo-list with an exact file.

The previous change introduced the 'git rebase --update-refs' option
which added 'update-ref <ref>' commands to the todo list of an
interactive rebase.
Teach Git to record the HEAD position when reaching these 'update-ref'
commands. The ref/before/after triple is stored in the
$GIT_DIR/rebase-merge/update-refs file. A previous change parsed this
file to avoid having other processes updating the refs in that file
while the rebase is in progress.
Not only do we update the file when the sequencer reaches these
'update-ref' commands, we then update the refs themselves at the end of
the rebase sequence. If the rebase is aborted before this final step,
then the refs are not updated. The 'before' value is used to ensure that
we do not accidentally obliterate a ref that was updated concurrently
(say, by an older version of Git or a third-party tool).
Now that the 'git rebase --update-refs' command is implemented to write
to the update-refs file, we can remove the fake construction of the
update-refs file from a test in t2407-worktree-heads.sh.

When working on a large feature, it can be helpful to break that feature
into multiple smaller parts that become reviewed in sequence. During
development or during review, a change to one part of the feature could
affect multiple of these parts. An interactive rebase can help adjust
the multi-part "story" of the branch.
However, if there are branches tracking the different parts of the
feature, then rebasing the entire list of commits can create commits not
reachable from those "sub branches". It can take a manual step to update
those branches.
Add a new --update-refs option to 'git rebase -i' that adds 'update-ref
<ref>' steps to the todo file whenever a commit that is being rebased is
decorated with that <ref>. At the very end, the rebase process updates
all of the listed refs to the values stored during the rebase operation.
Be sure to iterate after any squashing or fixups are placed. Update the
branch only after those squashes and fixups are complete. This allows a
--fixup commit at the tip of the feature to apply correctly to the sub
branch, even if it is fixing up the most-recent commit in that part.
This change update the documentation and builtin to accept the
--update-refs option as well as updating the todo file with the
'update-ref' commands. Tests are added to ensure that these todo
commands are added in the correct locations.
This change does _not_ include the actual behavior of tracking the
updated refs and writing the new ref values at the end of the rebase
process. That is deferred to a later change.

The branch_checked_out() helper helps commands like 'git branch' and
'git fetch' from overwriting refs that are currently checked out in
other worktrees.
A future update to 'git rebase' will introduce a new '--update-refs'
option which will update the local refs that point to commits that are
being rebased. To avoid collisions as the rebase completes, we want to
make the future data store for these refs to be considered by
branch_checked_out().
The data store is a plaintext file inside the 'rebase-merge' directory
for that worktree. The file lists refnames followed by two OIDs, each on
separate lines. The OIDs will be used to store the original values of
the refs and the to-be-written values as the rebase progresses, but can
be ignored at the moment.
Create a new sequencer_get_update_refs_state() method that parses this
file and populates a struct string_list with the ref-OID pairs. We can
then use this list to add to the current_checked_out_branches strmap
used by branch_checked_out().
To properly navigate to the rebase directory for a given worktree,
extract the static strbuf_worktree_gitdir() method to a public API
method.
We can test that this works without having Git write this file by
artificially creating one in our test script, at least until 'git rebase
--update-refs' is implemented and we can use it directly.

As 'revert' and 'cherry-pick' share a lot of code, it is easy to
modify the behaviour of one command and inadvertently affect the
other. An earlier change to teach the '--reference' option and the
'revert.reference' configuration variable to the former was not
careful enough and 'cherry-pick --reference' wasn't rejected as an
error.
It is possible to think 'cherry-pick -x' might benefit from the
'--reference' option, but it is fundamentally different from
'revert' in at least two ways to make it questionable:
- 'revert' names a commit that is ancestor of the resulting commit,
so an abbreviated object name with human readable title is
sufficient to identify the named commit uniquely without using
the full object name. On the other hand, 'cherry-pick'
usually [*] picks a commit that is not an ancestor. It might be
even picking a private commit that never becomes part of the
public history.
- The whole commit message of 'cherry-pick' is a copy of the
original commit, and there is nothing gained to repeat only the
title part on 'cherry-picked from' message.
[*] well, you could revert and then you can pick the original that
was reverted to get back to where you were, but then you can
revert the revert to do the same thing.

A typical "git revert" commit uses the full title of the original
commit in its title, and starts its body of the message with:
This reverts commit 8fa7f667cf61386257c00d6e954855cc3215ae91.
This does not encourage the best practice of describing not just
"what" (i.e. "Revert X" on the title says what we did) but "why"
(i.e. and it does not say why X was undesirable).
We can instead phrase this first line of the body to be more like
This reverts commit 8fa7f667 (do this and that, 2022-04-25)
so that the title does not have to be
Revert "do this and that"
We can instead use the title to describe "why" we are reverting the
original commit.
Introduce the "--reference" option to "git revert", and also the
revert.reference configuration variable, which defaults to false, to
tweak the title and the first line of the draft commit message for
when creating a "revert" commit.
When this option is in use, the first line of the pre-filled editor
buffer becomes a comment line that tells the user to say _why_. If
the user exits the editor without touching this line by mistake,
what we prepare to become the first line of the body, i.e. "This
reverts commit 8fa7f667 (do this and that, 2022-04-25)", ends up to
be the title of the resulting commit. This behaviour is designed to
help such a user to identify such a revert in "git log --oneline"
easily so that it can be further reworded with "git rebase -i" later.

Instead of creating a new allocation, reverse the original list

Fix a Time-of-check to time-of-use (TOCTOU) race in code added in
680ee550d7 (commit: skip discarding the index if there is no
pre-commit hook, 2017-08-14).
This obscure race condition can occur if we e.g. ran the "pre-commit"
hook and it modified the index, but hook_exists() returns false later
on (e.g., because the hook itself went away, the directory became
unreadable, etc.). Then we won't call discard_cache() when we should
have.
The race condition itself probably doesn't matter, and users would
have been unlikely to run into it in practice. This problem has been
noted on-list when 680ee550d7 was discussed[1], but had not been
fixed.
This change is mainly intended to improve the readability of the code
involved, and to make reasoning about it more straightforward. It
wasn't as obvious what we were trying to do here, but by having an
"invoked_hook" it's clearer that e.g. our discard_cache() is happening
because of the earlier hook execution.
Let's also change this for the push-to-checkout hook. Now instead of
checking if the hook exists and either doing a push to checkout or a
push to deploy we'll always attempt a push to checkout. If the hook
doesn't exist we'll fall back on push to deploy. The same behavior as
before, without the TOCTOU race. See 0855331941 (receive-pack:
support push-to-checkout hook, 2014-12-01) for the introduction of the
previous behavior.
This leaves uses of hook_exists() in two places that matter. The
"reference-transaction" check in refs.c, see 6754159767 (refs:
implement reference transaction hook, 2020-06-19), and the
"prepare-commit-msg" hook, see 66618a50f9 (sequencer: run
'prepare-commit-msg' hook, 2018-01-24).
In both of those cases we're saving ourselves CPU time by not
preparing data for the hook that we'll then do nothing with if we
don't have the hook. So using this "invoked_hook" pattern doesn't make
sense in those cases.
The "reference-transaction" and "prepare-commit-msg" hook also aren't
racy. In those cases we'll skip the hook runs if we race with a new
hook being added, whereas in the TOCTOU races being fixed here we were
incorrectly skipping the required post-hook logic.

Remove the now-unused "failure_errno" parameter from the
refs_resolve_ref_unsafe() signature. In my recent 96f6623ada (Merge
branch 'ab/refs-errno-cleanup', 2021-11-29) series we made all of its
callers explicitly request the errno via an output parameter.
As that series shows all but one caller ended up passing in a
boilerplate "ignore_errno", since they only cared about whether the
return value was NULL or not, i.e. if the ref could be resolved.
There was one small issue with that series fixed with a follow-up in
31e3912369 (Merge branch 'ab/refs-errno-cleanup', 2022-01-14) a small
bug in that series was fixed.
After those two there was one caller left in sequencer.c that used the
"failure_errno', but as of the preceding commit it uses a boilerplate
"ignore_errno" instead.
This leaves the public refs API without any use of "failure_errno" at
all. We could still do with a bit of cleanup and generalization
between refs.c and refs/files-backend.c before the "reftable"
integration lands, but that's all internal to the reference code
itself.
So let's remove this output parameter. Not only isn't it used now, but
it's unlikely that we'll want it again in the future. We'd like to
slowly move the refs API to a more file-backend independent way of
communicating error codes, having it use a "failure_errno" was only
the first step in that direction. If this or any other function needs
to communicate what specifically is wrong with the requested "refname"
it'll be better to have the function set some output enum of
well-defined error states than piggy-backend on "errno".

API in ed90f04155 (refs API: make resolve_ref_unsafe() not set errno,

When we fail to resolve "HEAD" after the sequencer runs it doesn't
really help to say what the "errno" value is, since the fake backend
errno may or may not reflect anything real about the state of the
".git/HEAD". With the upcoming reftable backend this fakery will
become even more pronounced.
So let's just die() instead of die_errno() here. This will also help
simplify the refs_resolve_ref_unsafe() API. This was the only user of

Now that reset_head() can handle the initial checkout of onto
correctly use it in the "merge" backend instead of forking "git
checkout". This opens the way for us to stop calling the

that "rebase -i/m" no longer recurse submodules when checking out
"onto" (thanks to Philippe Blain for pointing this out). As the rest

good thing. When using merge-ort rebase ought be able to handle
submodules correctly if it parsed the submodule config, such a change

like all the other callers that are doing a reset. The case that

GIT_WORK_TREE not set, it presumes that '.' is the working tree. So...
This combination results in the subcommand being very confused about
the working tree. Fix it by also setting the GIT_WORK_TREE environment
variable along with setting cmd.dir.
A possibly more involved fix we could consider for later would be to
make setup.c set GIT_WORK_TREE whenever (a) it discovers both the git
directory and the working tree and (b) it decides to set GIT_DIR in the
environment. I did not attempt that here as such would be too big of a
change for a 2.35.1 release.

We do not currently have any flags when creating reference transactions,
but we'll add one to disable execution of the reference transaction hook
in some cases.
Allow passing flags to `ref_store_transaction_begin()` to prepare for

Many git commands that deal with working tree files try to remove a
directory that becomes empty (i.e. "git switch" from a branch that
has the directory to another branch that does not would attempt
remove all files in the directory and the directory itself). This
drops users into an unfamiliar situation if the command was run in
a subdirectory that becomes subject to removal due to the command.
The commands have been taught to keep an empty directory if it is
the directory they were started in to avoid surprising users.

Since rebase spawns a `checkout` subprocess, make sure we run that from

knows to protect that directory.

Commands executed from `git rebase --exec` can give different behavior
from within that environment than they would outside of it, due to the
fact that sequencer.c exports both GIT_DIR and GIT_WORK_TREE. For
example, if the relevant script calls something like
git -C ../otherdir log --format=%H --no-walk
the user may be surprised to find that the command above does not show a
commit hash from ../otherdir, because $GIT_DIR prevents automatic gitdir
detection and makes the -C option useless.
This is a regression in behavior from the original legacy
implemented-in-shell rebase. It is perhaps rare for it to cause
problems in practice, especially since most small problems that were
caused by this area of bugs has been fixed-up in the past in a way that
masked the particular bug observed without fixing the real underlying
problem.
An explanation of how we arrived at the current situation is perhaps
merited. The setting of GIT_DIR and GIT_WORK_TREE done by sequencer.c
arose from a sequence of historical accidents:
* When rebase was implemented as a shell command, it would call
git-sh-setup, which among other things would set GIT_DIR -- but not
export it. This meant that when rebase --exec commands were run via
/bin/sh -c "$COMMAND"
they would not inherit the GIT_DIR setting. The fact that GIT_DIR
was not set in the run $COMMAND is the behavior we'd like to restore.
* When the rebase--helper builtin was introduced to allow incrementally
replacing shell with C code, we had an implementation that was half
shell, half C. In particular, commit 18633e1a22 ("rebase -i: use the
rebase--helper builtin", 2017-02-09) added calls to
exec git rebase--helper ...
which caused rebase--helper to inherit the GIT_DIR environment
variable from the shell. git's setup would change the environment
variable from an absolute path to a relative one (".git"), but would
leave it set. This meant that when rebase --exec commands were run
via
run_command_v_opt(...)
they would inherit the GIT_DIR setting.
* In commit 09d7b6c6fa ("sequencer: pass absolute GIT_DIR to exec
commands", 2017-10-31), it was noted that the GIT_DIR caused problems
with some commands; e.g.
git rebase --exec 'cd subdir && git describe' ...
would have GIT_DIR=.git which was invalid due to the change to the
subdirectory. Instead of questioning why GIT_DIR was set, that commit
instead made sequencer change GIT_DIR to be an absolute path and
explicitly export it via
argv_array_pushf(&child_env, "GIT_DIR=%s", absolute_path(get_git_dir()));
run_command_v_opt_cd_env(..., child_env.argv)
* In commit ab5e67d751 ("sequencer: pass absolute GIT_WORK_TREE to exec
commands", 2018-07-14), it was noted that when GIT_DIR is set but
GIT_WORK_TREE is not, that we do not discover GIT_WORK_TREE but just
assume it is '.'. That is incorrect if trying to run commands from a
subdirectory. However, rather than question why GIT_DIR was set, that
commit instead also added GIT_WORK_TREE to the list of things to
export.
Each of the above problems would have been fixed automatically when
git-rebase became a full builtin, had it not been for the fact that
sequencer.c started exporting GIT_DIR and GIT_WORK_TREE in the interim.
Stop exporting them now.

The `--exec <cmd>` is documented as
Append "exec <cmd>" after each line creating a commit in the final
history.
...
If --autosquash is used, "exec" lines will not be appended for the
intermediate commits, and will only appear at the end of each
squash/fixup series.
Unfortunately, it would also add exec commands after non-pick
operations, such as 'no-op', which could be seen for example with
git rebase -i --exec true HEAD
todo_list_add_exec_commands() intent was to insert exec commands after
each logical pick, while trying to consider a chains of fixup and squash
commits to be part of the pick before it. So it would keep an 'insert'
boolean tracking if it had seen a pick or merge, but not write the exec
command until it saw the next non-fixup/squash command. Since that
would make it miss the final exec command, it had some code that would
check whether it still needed to insert one at the end, but instead of a
simple
if (insert)
it had a
if (insert || <condition that is always true>)
That's buggy; as per the docs, we should only add exec commands for
lines that create commits, i.e. only if insert is true. Fix the
conditional.
There was one testcase in the testsuite that we tweak for this change;
it was introduced in 54fd3243da ("rebase -i: reread the todo list if
`exec` touched it", 2017-04-26), and was merely testing that after an
exec had fired that the todo list would be re-read. The test at the
time would have worked given any revision at all, though it would only
work with 'HEAD' as a side-effect of this bug. Since we're fixing this
bug, choose something other than 'HEAD' for that test.
Finally, add a testcase that verifies when we have no commits to pick,
that we get no exec lines in the generated todo list.

Change a pattern of hardcoding an "argv" array size, populating it and
assigning to the "argv" member of "struct child_process" to instead
use "strvec_pushl()" to add data to the "args" member.
This implements the same behavior as before in fewer lines of code,
and moves us further towards being able to remove the "argv" member in
a subsequent commit.
Since we've entirely removed the "argv" variable(s) we can be sure
that no potential logic errors of the type discussed in a preceding
commit are being introduced here, i.e. ones where the local "argv" was
being modified after the assignment to "struct child_process"'s
"argv".

baf8ec8d3a (rebase -r: don't write .git/MERGE_MSG when
fast-forwarding, 2021-08-20) stopped reading the author script in
run_git_commit() when rewording a commit. This is normally safe
because "git commit --amend" preserves the authorship. However if the
user passes "--committer-date-is-author-date" then we need to read the
author date from the author script when rewording. Fix this regression
by tightening the check for when it is safe to skip reading the author
script.
