When handling "--exec" rebase collects the commands into a struct
string_list, then prepends "exec " to each command creating a multi line
string and finally splits that string back into a list of commands. This
is an artifact of the scripted rebase and the need to support "rebase
--preserve-merges". Now that "--preserve-merges" no-longer exists we can
cleanup the way the argument is handled. There is no need to add the
"exec " prefix to the commands as that is added by todo_list_to_strbuf().

In b3b1a21d1a (sequencer: rewrite update-refs as user edits todo list,
2022-07-19), the 'todo_list_filter_update_refs()' step was added to handle
the removal of 'update-ref' lines from a 'rebase-todo'. Specifically, it
removes potential ref updates from the "update refs state" if a ref does not
have a corresponding 'update-ref' line.
However, because 'write_update_refs_state()' will not update the state if
the 'refs_to_oids' list was empty, removing *all* 'update-ref' lines will
result in the state remaining unchanged from how it was initialized (with
all refs' "after" OID being null). Then, when the ref update is applied, all
refs will be updated to null and consequently deleted.
To fix this, delete the 'update-refs' state file when 'refs_to_oids' is
empty. Additionally, add a tests covering "all update-ref lines removed"
cases.

When "read_strategy_opts()" is called we may have populated the
"opts->strategy" before, so we'll need to free() it to avoid leaking
memory.
We populate it before because we cal get_replay_opts() from within
"rebase.c" with an already populated "opts", which we then copy. Then
if we're doing a "rebase -i" the sequencer API itself will promptly
clobber our alloc'd version of it with its own.
If this code is changed to do, instead of the added free() here a:
if (opts->strategy)
opts->strategy = xstrdup("another leak");
We get a couple of stacktraces from -fsanitize=leak showing how we
ended up clobbering the already allocated value, i.e.:

This can be seen in e.g. the 4th test of
"t3404-rebase-interactive.sh".
In the larger picture the ownership of the "struct replay_opts" is
quite a mess, e.g. in this case rebase.c's static "get_replay_opts()"
function partially creates it, but nothing in rebase.c will free()
it. The structure is "mostly owned" by the sequencer API, but it also
expects to get these partially populated versions of it.
It would be better to have rebase keep track of what it allocated, and
free() that, and to pass that as a "const" to the sequencer API, which
would copy what it needs to its own version, and to free() that.
But doing so is a much larger change, and however messy the ownership
boundary is here is consistent with what we're doing already, so let's
just free() this to fix the leak.

The `label` command creates a ref refs/rewritten/<label> that the
`reset` and `merge` commands resolve by calling lookup_label(). That
uses lookup_commit_reference_by_name() to look up the label ref. As
lookup_commit_reference_by_name() uses the dwim rules when looking up
the label it will look for a branch named
refs/heads/refs/rewritten/<label> and return that instead of an error if
the branch exists and the label does not. Fix this by using read_ref()
followed by lookup_commit_object() when looking up labels.

The arguments to the `reset` and `merge` commands may be a label created
with a `label` command or an arbitrary commit name. The `merge` command
uses the lookup_label() function to lookup its arguments but `reset` has
a slightly different version of that function in do_reset(). Reduce this
code duplication by calling lookup_label() from do_reset() as well.
This change improves the behavior of `reset` when the argument is a
tree. Previously `reset` would accept a tree only for the rebase to
fail with

Enable the 'skip_cache_tree_update' option in both 'do_reset()'
('sequencer.c') and 'reset_head()' ('reset.c'). Both of these callers invoke
'prime_cache_tree()' after 'unpack_trees()', so we can remove an unnecessary
cache tree rebuild by skipping 'cache_tree_update()'.
When testing with 'p3400-rebase.sh' and 'p3404-rebase-interactive.sh', the
performance change of this update was negligible, likely due to the
operation being dominated by more expensive operations (like checking out
trees). However, since the change doesn't harm performance, it's worth
keeping this 'unpack_trees()' usage consistent with others that subsequently
invoke 'prime_cache_tree()'.

Each time it picks a commit the sequencer copies the GIT_REFLOG_ACITON
environment variable so it can temporarily change it and then restore
the previous value. This results in code that is hard to follow and also
leaks memory because (i) we fail to free the copy when we've finished
with it and (ii) each call to setenv() leaks the previous value. Instead
pass the reflog action around in a variable and use it to set
GIT_REFLOG_ACTION in the child environment when running "git commit".
Within the sequencer GIT_REFLOG_ACTION is no longer set and is only read
by sequencer_reflog_action(). It is still set by rebase before calling
the sequencer, that will be addressed in the next commit. cherry-pick
and revert are unaffected as they do not set GIT_REFLOG_ACTION before
calling the sequencer.

Unfortunately the reflog message each subsequent pick look like

Fix this by setting the reflog message for "rebase --continue" in

introduces a memory leak similar to the one leaking GIT_REFLOG_ACTION
in pick_commits(). Both of these will be fixed in a future series that

As we parse the author-script file, we check for missing or duplicate
lines for GIT_AUTHOR_NAME, etc. But after reading the whole file, our
final error conditional checks "date_i" twice and "name_i" not at all.
This not only leads to us failing to abort, but we may do an
out-of-bounds read on the string_list array.
The bug goes back to 442c36bd08 (am: improve author-script error
reporting, 2018-10-31), though the code was soon after moved to this
spot by bcd33ec25f (add read_author_script() to libgit, 2018-10-31).

Commit 68d5d03bc4 (rebase: teach --autosquash to match on sha1 in
addition to message, 2010-11-04) taught autosquash to recognize
subjects like "fixup! 7a235b" where 7a235b is an OID-prefix. It
actually did more than advertised: 7a235b can be an arbitrary
commit-ish (as long as it's not trailed by spaces).
Accidental(?) use of this secret feature revealed a bug where we
would silently drop a fixup commit. The bug can also be triggered
when using an OID-prefix but that's unlikely in practice.
Let the commit with subject "fixup! main" be the tip of the "main"
branch. When computing the fixup target for this commit, we find
the commit itself. This is wrong because, by definition, a fixup
target must be an earlier commit in the todo list. We wrongly find
the current commit because we added it to the todo list prematurely.
Avoid these fixup-cycles by only adding the current commit to the
todo list after we have finished looking for the fixup target.

Traditionally, reflog messages were never translated, in particular not

Due to the switch of more parts of git to the sequencer, old changes in
the sequencer code may lead to recent changes in git's behaviour. E.g.:
c28cbc5ea6 ("sequencer: mark action_name() for translation", 2016-10-21)
marked several uses of `action_name()` for translation. Recently, this
lead to a partially translated reflog:
`rebase: fast-forward` is translated (e.g. in de to `Rebase: Vorspulen`)
whereas other reflog entries such as `rebase (pick):` remain
untranslated as they should be.
Change the relevant line in the sequencer so that this reflog entry
remains untranslated, as well.

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.

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.

Add the boilerplate for an "update-ref" command in the sequencer. This
connects to the current no-op do_update_ref() which will be filled in
after more connections are created.
The syntax in the todo list will be "update-ref <ref-name>" to signal
that we should store the current commit as the value for updating
<ref-name> at the end of the rebase.

The todo_command_info array defines which strings match with which
todo_command enum values. The array is defined in the same order as the
enum values, but if one changed without the other, then we would have
unexpected results.

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.

Follow-up on a preceding commit which changed all references to the
"env_array" when referring to the "struct child_process" member. These
changes are all unnecessary for the compiler, but help the code's
human readers.
All the comments that referred to "env_array" have now been updated,
as well as function names and variables that had "env_array" in their
name, they now refer to "env".
In addition the "out" name for the submodule.h prototype was
inconsistent with the function definition's use of "env_array" in
submodule.c. Both of them use "env" now.

Start following-up on the rename mentioned in c7c4bdeccf (run-command
API: remove "env" member, always use "env_array", 2021-11-25) of
"env_array" to "env".
The "env_array" name was picked in 19a583dc39 (run-command: add

was taken. Let's not forever keep the oddity of "*_array" for this
"struct strvec", but not for its "args" sibling.
This commit is almost entirely made with a coccinelle rule[1]. The

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

The original code discards the list "bases" after storing its
reverse copy in a newly created list "reversed". If the code that
followed from here used both "bases" and "reversed", the
modification would not have worked, but since the original list
"bases" gets discarded, we can simply reverse "bases" in-place with
the reverse_commit_list() helper and reuse the same variable in the
code that follows.
builtin/merge.c has been left unmodified, since in its case, the
original list is needed separately from its reverse copy by the

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".

Change code that was faithfully migrated to the new "resolve_errno"
API in ed90f04155 (refs API: make resolve_ref_unsafe() not set errno,
2021-10-16) to stop caring about the errno at all.
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
it that wasn't ignoring the "failure_errno" output parameter.

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
post-checkout hook in the future. Not running "git checkout" means
that "rebase -i/m" no longer recurse submodules when checking out
"onto" (thanks to Philippe Blain for pointing this out). As the rest
of rebase does not know what to do with submodules this is probably a
good thing. When using merge-ort rebase ought be able to handle
submodules correctly if it parsed the submodule config, such a change
is left for a future patch series.

The only use of the action parameter is to setup the error messages
for unpack_trees(). All but two cases pass either "checkout" or
"reset". The case that passes "reset --hard" would be better passing
"reset" so that the error messages match the builtin reset command
like all the other callers that are doing a reset. The case that
passes "Fast-forwarded" is only updating HEAD and so the parameter is
unused in that case as it does not call unpack_trees(). The value to

attempt to remove startup_info->original_cwd", 2021-12-09), we wanted to
allow the subprocess to know which directory the parent process was
running from, so that the subprocess could protect it. However...
When run from a non-main worktree, setup_git_directory() will note
that the discovered git directory
(/PATH/TO/.git/worktree/non-main-worktree) does not match
DEFAULT_GIT_DIR_ENVIRONMENT (see setup_discovered_git_dir()), and
decide to set GIT_DIR in the environment. This matters because...
Whenever git is run with the GIT_DIR environment variable set, and
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

Many git commands that deal with working tree files try to remove a

has the directory to another branch that does not would attempt
remove all files in the directory and the directory itself). This

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.

Rename the transitory refs_werrres_ref_unsafe() function to

The coccinelle semantic patch added in the preceding commit works, but
I couldn't figure out how to get spatch(1) to re-flow these argument

Change the resolve_ref_unsafe() wrapper function to use the underlying
refs_werrres_ref_unsafe() directly.
From a reading of the callers I determined that the only one who cared
about errno was a sequencer.c caller added in e47c6cafcb (commit:
move print_commit_summary() to libgit, 2017-11-24), I'm migrating it
to using refs_werrres_ref_unsafe() directly.
This adds another "set errno" instance, but in this case it's OK and
idiomatic. We are setting it just before calling die_errno(). We could
have some hypothetical die_errno_var(&saved_errno, ...) here, but I
don't think it's worth it. The problem with errno is subtle action at
distance, not this sort of thing. We already use this pattern in a
couple of places in wrapper.c

This introduces a change in behavior in that we now start calling

Change several commands to remove ignored files by default when they are

--no-overwrite-ignore option to allow the user to configure this, and it
may make sense to add that option to more commands (and in the case of
merge, actually plumb that configuration option through to more of the
backends than just the fast-forwarding special case), add little
comments about where such flags would be used.

Currently, every caller of unpack_trees() that wants to ensure ignored
files are overwritten by default needs to:
* allocate unpack_trees_options.dir
* flip the DIR_SHOW_IGNORED flag in unpack_trees_options.dir->flags
* call setup_standard_excludes
AND then after the call to unpack_trees() needs to
* call dir_clear()
* deallocate unpack_trees_options.dir
That's a fair amount of boilerplate, and every caller uses identical
code. Make this easier by instead introducing a new boolean value where
the default value (0) does what we want so that new callers of
unpack_trees() automatically get the appropriate behavior. And move all
the handling of unpack_trees_options.dir into unpack_trees() itself.
While preserve_ignored = 0 is the behavior we feel is the appropriate
default, we defer fixing commands to use the appropriate default until a
later commit. So, this commit introduces several locations where we
manually set preserve_ignored=1. This makes it clear where code paths
were previously preserving ignored files when they should not have been;
a future commit will flip these to instead use a value of 0 to get the
behavior we want.

54fd3243da ("rebase -i: reread the todo list if `exec` touched it",
2017-04-26) sought to reread the todo list after running an exec
command only if it had been changed. To accomplish this it checks the
stat data of the todo list after running an exec command to see if it
has changed. Unfortunately there are two problems, firstly the
implementation is buggy we actually reread the list after each exec
which is quadratic in the number of commit lookups and secondly the
design is predicated on using nanosecond time stamps which are not the
default.
The implementation bug stems from the fact that we write a new todo
list to disk before running each command but do not update the stat
data to reflect this[1].
The design problem is that it is possible for the user to edit the
todo list without changing its size or inode which means we have to
rely on the mtime to tell us if it has changed. Unfortunately unless
git is built with USE_NSEC it is possible for the original and edited
list to share the same mtime.
Ideally "git rebase --edit-todo" would set a flag that we would then
check in sequencer.c. Unfortunately this is approach will not work as
there are scripts in the wild that write to the todo list directly
without running "git rebase --edit-todo". Instead of relying on stat
data this patch simply reads the possibly edited todo list and
compares it to the original with memcmp(). This is much faster than
reparsing the todo list each time. This patch reduces the time to run
git rebase -r -xtrue v2.32.0~100 v2.32.0
which runs 419 exec commands by 6.6%. For comparison fixing the
implementation bug in stat based approach reduces the time by a
further 1.4% and is indistinguishable from never rereading the todo
list.

The sequencer is used by 'cherry-pick' and 'rebase' to sequence a list
of operations that modify the index. Since we intend to remove the need
for 'command_requires_full_index', we need to ensure the sparse index is
expanded every time it is written to disk between these steps. That is,
unless the merge strategy is 'ort' where the index can remain sparse
throughout.
There are two main places to be extra careful about a full index:
1. Right before calling merge_trees(), ensure the index is full. This
happens within an 'else' where the 'if' block checks if the 'ort'
strategy is selected.
2. During read_and_refresh_cache(), the index might be written to disk
and converted to sparse in the process. Ensure it expands back to
full afterwards by checking if the strategy is _not_ 'ort'. This
'if' statement is the logical negation of the 'if' in item (1).

"git cherry-pick", upon seeing a conflict, says:

hint: with 'git add <paths>' or 'git rm <paths>'

as if running "git commit" to conclude the resolution of
this single step were the end of the story. This stems from
the fact that the command originally was to pick a single
commit and not a range of commits, and the message was
written back then and has not been adjusted.
When picking a range of commits and the command stops with a
conflict in the middle of the range, however, after
resolving the conflict and (optionally) recording the result
with "git commit", the user has to run "git cherry-pick
--continue" to have the rest of the range dealt with,
"--skip" to drop the current commit, or "--abort" to discard
the series.
Suggest use of "git cherry-pick --continue/--skip/--abort"
so that the message also covers the case where a range of
commits are being picked.
Similarly, this optimization can be applied to git revert,
suggest use of "git revert --continue/--skip/--abort" so
that the message also covers the case where a range of
commits are being reverted.
It is worth mentioning that now we use advice() to print
the content of GIT_CHERRY_PICK_HELP in print_advice(), each

When fast-forwarding we do not create a new commit so .git/MERGE_MSG
is not removed and can end up seeding the message of a commit made
after the rebase has finished. Avoid writing .git/MERGE_MSG when we
are fast-forwarding by writing the file after the fast-forward
checks. Note that there are no changes to the fast-forward code, it is
simply moved.
Note that the way this change is implemented means we no longer write
the author script when fast-forwarding either. I believe this is safe
for the reasons below but it is a departure from what we do when
fast-forwarding a non-merge commit. If we reword the merge then 'git
commit --amend' will keep the authorship of the commit we're rewording
as it ignores GIT_AUTHOR_* unless --reset-author is passed. It will
also export the correct GIT_AUTHOR_* variables to any hooks and we
already test the authorship of the reworded commit. If we are not
rewording then we no longer call spilt_ident() which means we are no
longer checking the commit author header looks sane. However this is
what we already do when fast-forwarding non-merge commits in
skip_unnecessary_picks() so I don't think we're breaking any promises

If the user runs git log while rewording a commit it is confusing if
sometimes we're amending the commit that's being reworded and at other
times we're creating a new commit depending on whether we could
fast-forward or not[1]. For this reason the reword command ensures
that there are no uncommitted changes when rewording. The reword
command also allows the user to edit the todo list while the rebase is
paused. As 'merge -c' also rewords commits make it behave like reword
and add a test.

If the user skips the final commit by removing all the changes from
the index and worktree with 'git restore' (or read-tree) and then runs
'git rebase --continue' .git/MERGE_MSG is left behind. This will seed
the commit message the next time the user commits which is not what we
want to happen.

There are a few reasons to switch the default:
* Correctness
* Extensibility
* Performance
I'll provide some summaries about each.
=== Correctness ===
The original impetus for a new merge backend was to fix issues that were
difficult to fix within recursive's design. The success with this goal
is perhaps most easily demonstrated by running the following:
$ git grep -2 KNOWN_FAILURE t/ | grep -A 4 GIT_TEST_MERGE_ALGORITHM
$ git grep test_expect_merge_algorithm.failure.success t/
$ git grep test_expect_merge_algorithm.success.failure t/
In order, these greps show:
* Seven sets of submodule tests (10 total tests) that fail with
recursive but succeed with ort
* 22 other tests that fail with recursive, but succeed with ort
* 0 tests that pass with recursive, but fail with ort
=== Extensibility ===
Being able to perform merges without touching the working tree or index
makes it possible to create new features that were difficult with the
old backend:
* Merging, cherry-picking, rebasing, reverting in bare repositories...
or just on branches that aren't checked out.
* `git diff AUTO_MERGE` -- ability to see what changes the user has
made to resolve conflicts so far (see commit 5291828df8 ("merge-ort:
write $GIT_DIR/AUTO_MERGE whenever we hit a conflict", 2021-03-20)
* A --remerge-diff option for log/show, used to show diffs for merges
that display the difference between what an automatic merge would
have created and what was recorded in the merge. (This option will
often result in an empty diff because many merges are clean, but for
the non-clean ones it will show how conflicts were fixed including
the removal of conflict markers, and also show additional changes
made outside of conflict regions to e.g. fix semantic conflicts.)
* A --remerge-diff-only option for log/show, similar to --remerge-diff
but also showing how cherry-picks or reverts differed from what an
automatic cherry-pick or revert would provide.
The last three have been implemented already (though only one has been
submitted upstream so far; the others were waiting for performance work
to complete), and I still plan to implement the first one.
=== Performance ===

Up until recently, object IDs did not have an algorithm member, only a
hash. Consequently, it was possible to share one null (all-zeros)
object ID among all hash algorithms. Now that we're going to be
handling objects from multiple hash algorithms, it's important to make
sure that all object IDs have a correct algorithm field.
Introduce a per-algorithm null OID, and add it to struct hash_algo.
Introduce a wrapper function as well, and use it everywhere we used to
use the null_oid constant.

Fix a bug in how --no-reschedule-failed-exec interacts with
rebase.rescheduleFailedExec=true being set in the config. Before this
change the --no-reschedule-failed-exec config option would be
overridden by the config.
This bug happened because of the particulars of how "rebase" works
v.s. most other git commands when it comes to parsing options and
config:
When we read the config and parse the CLI options we correctly prefer
the --no-reschedule-failed-exec option over
rebase.rescheduleFailedExec=true in the config. So far so good.
However the --reschedule-failed-exec option doesn't take effect when
the rebase starts (we'd just create a
".git/rebase-merge/reschedule-failed-exec" file if it was true). It
only takes effect when the exec command fails, at which point we'll
reschedule the failed "exec" command.
Since we only wrote out the positive
".git/rebase-merge/reschedule-failed-exec" under
--reschedule-failed-exec, but nothing with --no-reschedule-failed-exec
we'll forget that we asked not to reschedule failed "exec", and would
happily re-read the config and see that
rebase.rescheduleFailedExec=true is set.
So the config will effectively override the user having explicitly
disabled the option on the command-line.
Even more confusingly: Since rebase accepts different options based on
its state there wasn't even a way to get around this with "rebase
--continue --no-reschedule-failed-exec" (but you could of course set
the config with "rebase -c ...").
I think the least bad way out of this is to declare that for such
options and config whatever we decide at the beginning of the rebase
goes. So we'll now always create either a "reschedule-failed-exec" or
a "no-reschedule-failed-exec file at the start, not just the former if
we decided we wanted the feature.
With this new worldview you can no longer change the setting once a
rebase has started except by manually removing the state files
discussed above. I think making it work like that is the the least
confusing thing we can do.
In the future we might want to learn to change the setting in the
middle by combining "--edit-todo" with
"--[no-]reschedule-failed-exec", we currently don't support combining
those options, or any other way to change the state in the middle of
the rebase short of manually editing the files in
".git/rebase-merge/*".
The bug being fixed here originally came about because of a
combination of the behavior of the code added in d421afa0c6 (rebase:
introduce --reschedule-failed-exec, 2018-12-10) and the addition of
the config variable in 969de3ff0e (rebase: add a config option to
default to --reschedule-failed-exec, 2018-12-10).

"git cherry-pick/revert" with or without "--[no-]edit" did not spawn
the editor as expected (e.g. "revert --no-edit" after a conflict
still asked to edit the message), which has been corrected.
* en/sequencer-edit-upon-conflict-fix:
sequencer: fix edit handling for cherry-pick and revert messages
save_opts() should save any non-default values. It was intended to do
this, but since most options in struct replay_opts default to 0, it only
saved non-zero values. Unfortunately, this does not always work for
options.edit. Roughly speaking, options.edit had a default value of 0
for cherry-pick but a default value of 1 for revert. Make save_opts()
record a value whenever it differs from the default.
options.edit was also overly simplistic; we had more than two cases.
The behavior that previously existed was as follows:
Non-conflict commits Right after Conflict
revert Edit iff isatty(0) Edit (ignore isatty(0))
cherry-pick No edit See above
Specify --edit Edit (ignore isatty(0)) See above
Specify --no-edit (*) See above
(*) Before stopping for conflicts, No edit is the behavior. After
stopping for conflicts, the --no-edit flag is not saved so see
the first two rows.
However, the expected behavior is:
Non-conflict commits Right after Conflict
revert Edit iff isatty(0) Edit iff isatty(0)
cherry-pick No edit Edit iff isatty(0)
Specify --edit Edit (ignore isatty(0)) Edit (ignore isatty(0))
Specify --no-edit No edit No edit
In order to get the expected behavior, we need to change options.edit
to a tri-state: unspecified, false, or true. When specified, we follow
what it says. When unspecified, we need to check whether the current
commit being created is resolving a conflict as well as consulting
options.action and isatty(0). While at it, add a should_edit() utility
function that compresses options.edit down to a boolean based on the
additional information for the non-conflict case.
continue_single_pick() is the function responsible for resuming after
conflict cases, regardless of whether there is one commit being picked
or many. Make this function stop assuming edit behavior in all cases,
so that it can correctly handle !isatty(0) and specific requests to not
edit the commit message.

There are a variety of questions users might ask while resolving
conflicts:
* What changes have been made since the previous (first) parent?
* What changes are staged?
* What is still unstaged? (or what is still conflicted?)
* What changes did I make to resolve conflicts so far?
The first three of these have simple answers:
* git diff HEAD
* git diff --cached
* git diff
There was no way to answer the final question previously. Adding one
is trivial in merge-ort, since it works by creating a tree representing
what should be written to the working copy complete with conflict
markers. Simply write that tree to .git/AUTO_MERGE, allowing users to
answer the fourth question with
* git diff AUTO_MERGE
I avoided using a name like "MERGE_AUTO", because that would be
merge-specific (much like MERGE_HEAD, REBASE_HEAD, REVERT_HEAD,
CHERRY_PICK_HEAD) and I wanted a name that didn't change depending on
which type of operation the merge was part of.
Ensure that paths which clean out other temporary operation-specific
files (e.g. CHERRY_PICK_HEAD, MERGE_MSG, rebase-merge/ state directory)
also clean out this AUTO_MERGE file.

In 6e98de72c0 (sequencer (rebase -i): add support for the 'fixup' and

behavior by mistake: when encountering a `fixup!` commit (or multiple
`fixup!` commits) without any `squash!` commit thrown in, the final `git
commit` was invoked with `--cleanup=strip`. Prior to that commit, the
commit command had been called without that `--cleanup` option.
Since we explicitly read the original commit message from a file in that
case, there is really no sense in forcing that clean-up.
We actually need to actively suppress that clean-up lest a configured
`commit.cleanup` may interfere with what we want to do: leave the commit
message unchanged.
