An interactive rebase operates on a detached HEAD (to keep the reflog
of the original branch relatively clean), and updates the branch only
at the end.
Now that the sequencer learns to perform interactive rebases, it also
needs to learn the trick to update the branch before removing the
directory containing the state of the interactive rebase.
We introduce a new head_ref variable in a wider scope than necessary at
the moment, to allow for a later patch that prints out "Successfully

When the last command of an interactive rebase fails, the user needs to
resolve the problem and then continue the interactive rebase. Naturally,
the todo script is empty by then. So let's not complain about that!
To that end, let's move that test out of the function that parses the
todo script, and into the more high-level function read_populate_todo().

This is a huge patch, and at the same time a huge step forward to
execute the performance-critical parts of the interactive rebase in a
builtin command.
Since 'fixup' and 'squash' are not only similar, but also need to know
about each other (we want to reduce a series of fixups/squashes into a
single, final commit message edit, from the user's point of view), we
really have to implement them both at the same time.
Most of the actual work is done by the existing code path that already
handles the "pick" and the "edit" commands; We added support for other
features (e.g. to amend the commit message) in the patches leading up to
this one, yet there are still quite a few bits in this patch that simply
would not make sense as individual patches (such as: determining whether
there was anything to "fix up" in the "todo" script, etc).
In theory, it would be possible to reuse the fast-forward code path also
for the fixup and the squash code paths, but in practice this would make
the code less readable. The end result cannot be fast-forwarded anyway,
therefore let's just extend the cherry-picking code path for now.
Since the sequencer parses the entire `git-rebase-todo` script in one go,
fixup or squash commands without a preceding pick can be reported early
(in git-rebase--interactive, we could only report such errors just before
executing the fixup/squash).

In contrast to "git am --abort", a sequencer abort did not check

to loss of work (when not spotted and resolved using reflog before

This behavior is now changed by mimicking "git am --abort". The
abortion is done but HEAD is not changed when the current HEAD is
not the expected HEAD.
A new file "sequencer/abort-safety" is added to save the expected

Callers of the hold_locked_index() function pass 0 when they want to

die or emit an error message when the request fails (e.g. somebody
else already held the lock), and pass 1 when they want the call to
die upon failure.
This option is called LOCK_DIE_ON_ERROR by the underlying lockfile

LOCK_DIE_ON_ERROR when calling the hold_lock_file_for_update().

Among the callers of hold_locked_index() that passes 0:
- diff.c::refresh_index_quietly() at the end of "git diff" is an
opportunistic update; it leaks the lockfile structure but it is
just before the program exits and nobody should care.
- builtin/describe.c::cmd_describe(),
builtin/commit.c::cmd_status(),
sequencer.c::read_and_refresh_cache() are all opportunistic
updates and they are OK.
- builtin/update-index.c::cmd_update_index() takes a lock upfront
but we may end up not needing to update the index (i.e. the
entries may be fully up-to-date), in which case we do not need to
issue an error upon failure to acquire the lock. We do diagnose
and die if we indeed need to update, so it is OK.
- wt-status.c::require_clean_work_tree() IS BUGGY. It asks
silence, does not check the returned value. Compare with
callsites like cmd_describe() and cmd_status() to notice that it
is wrong to call update_index_if_able() unconditionally.
Make sequencer use trailer.c's trailer layout definition, as opposed to
parsing the footer by itself. This makes "commit -s", "cherry-pick -x",
and "format-patch --signoff" consistent with trailer, allowing
non-trailer lines and multiple-line trailers in trailer blocks under
certain conditions, and therefore suppressing the extra newline in those
cases.
Consistency with trailer extends to respecting trailer configs. Tests
have been included to show that.

Silence a clang warning introduced by a recently graduated topic.
* js/prepare-sequencer:
sequencer: silence -Wtautological-constant-out-of-range-compare
When clang compiles sequencer.c, it complains:
sequencer.c:632:14: warning: comparison of constant 2 with
expression of type 'const enum todo_command' is always
true [-Wtautological-constant-out-of-range-compare]
if (command < ARRAY_SIZE(todo_command_strings))
This is because "command" is an enum that may only have two
values (0 and 1) and the array in question has two elements.
As it turns out, clang is actually wrong here, at least
according to its own bug tracker:
https://llvm.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=16154
But it's still worth working around this, as the warning is
present with -Wall, meaning we fail compilation with "make
DEVELOPER=1".
Casting the enum to size_t sufficiently unconfuses clang. As
a bonus, it also catches any possible out-of-bounds access
if the enum takes on a negative value (which shouldn't
happen either, but again, this is a defensive check).

When new paths were added by "git add -N" to the index, it was

If i-t-a entries are present and there is no change between the index
and HEAD i-t-a entries, index_differs_from() still returns "dirty, new
entries" (aka, the resulting commit is not empty), but cache-tree will
skip i-t-a entries and produce the exact same tree of current
commit.
index_differs_from() is supposed to catch this so we can abort
git-commit (unless --no-empty is specified). Update it to optionally
ignore i-t-a entries when doing a diff between the index and HEAD so
that it would return "no change" in this case and abort commit.

Likewise, we may want to edit the commit message *even* when providing a

to call the editor explicitly.
Also, in "interactive rebase" mode we want to skip reading the options

The `git-rebase-todo` file contains a list of commands. Most of those
commands have the form
<verb> <sha1> <oneline>
The <oneline> is displayed primarily for the user's convenience, as
rebase -i really interprets only the <verb> <sha1> part. However, there
are *some* places in interactive rebase where the <oneline> is used to
display messages, e.g. for reporting at which commit we stopped.
So let's just remember it when parsing the todo file; we keep a copy of
the entire todo file anyway (to write out the new `done` and
`git-rebase-todo` file just before processing each command), so all we
need to do is remember the begin offsets and lengths.
As we will have to parse and remember the command-line for `exec` commands
later, we do not call the field "oneline" but rather "arg" (and will reuse

It is not unheard of that editors on Windows write CR/LF even if the
file originally had only LF. This is particularly awkward for exec lines
of a rebase -i todo sheet. Take for example the insn "exec echo": The
shell script parser splits at the LF and leaves the CR attached to
"echo", which leads to the unknown command "echo\r".
Work around that by stripping CR when reading the todo commands, as we
already do for LF.
This happens to fix t9903.14 and .15 in MSYS1 environments (with the
rebase--helper patches based on this patch series): the todo script
constructed in such a setup contains CR/LF thanks to MSYS1 runtime's

When we came up with the "sequencer" idea, we really wanted to have
kind of a plumbing equivalent of the interactive rebase. Hence the
choice of words: the "todo" script, a "pick", etc.
However, when it came time to implement the entire shebang, somehow this
idea got lost and the sequencer was used as working horse for
cherry-pick and revert instead. So as not to interfere with the
interactive rebase, it even uses a separate directory to store its
state.
Furthermore, it also is stupidly strict about the "todo" script it
accepts: while it parses commands in a way that was *designed* to be
similar to the interactive rebase, it then goes on to *error out* if the
commands disagree with the overall action (cherry-pick or revert).
Finally, the sequencer code chose to deviate from the interactive rebase
code insofar that when it comes to writing the file with the remaining
commands, it *reformats* the "todo" script instead of just writing the
part of the parsed script that were not yet processed. This is not only
unnecessary churn, but might well lose information that is valuable to
the user (i.e. comments after the commands).
Let's just bite the bullet and rewrite the entire parser; the code now
becomes not only more elegant: it allows us to go on and teach the
sequencer how to parse *true* "todo" scripts as used by the interactive
rebase itself. In a way, the sequencer is about to grow up to do its
older brother's job. Better.
In particular, we choose to maintain the list of commands in an array
instead of a linked list: this is flexible enough to allow us later on to
even implement rebase -i's reordering of fixup!/squash! commits very
easily (and with a very nice speed bonus, at least on Windows).
While at it, do not stop at the first problem, but list *all* of the
problems. This will help the user when the sequencer will do `rebase
-i`'s work by allowing to address all issues in one go rather than going
back and forth until the todo list is valid.

The sequencer is our attempt to lib-ify cherry-pick. Yet it behaves
like a one-shot command when it reads its configuration: memory is
allocated and released only when the command exits.
This is kind of okay for git-cherry-pick, which *is* a one-shot
command. All the work to make the sequencer its work horse was
done to allow using the functionality as a library function, though,
including proper clean-up after use.
To remedy that, take custody of the option values in question,
allocating and duping literal constants as needed and freeing them
at end.

The recursive merge machinery accumulates its output in an output
buffer, to be flushed at the end of merge_recursive(). At this point,
we forgot to release the output buffer.
When calling merge_trees() (i.e. the non-recursive part of the recursive
merge) directly, the output buffer is never flushed because the caller
may be merge_recursive() which wants to flush the output itself.
For the same reason, merge_trees() cannot release the output buffer: it
may still be needed.
Forgetting to release the output buffer did not matter much when running
git-checkout, or git-merge-recursive, because we exited after the
operation anyway. Ever since cherry-pick learned to pick a commit range,
however, this memory leak had the potential of becoming a problem.

A helper function that takes the contents of a commit object and
finds its subject line did not ignore leading blank lines, as is
commonly done by other codepaths. Make it ignore leading blank
lines to match.
* js/find-commit-subject-ignore-leading-blanks:
reset --hard: skip blank lines when reporting the commit subject
sequencer: use skip_blank_lines() to find the commit subject
commit -C: skip blank lines at the beginning of the message
commit.c: make find_commit_subject() more robust
pretty: make the skip_blank_lines() function public
Previously, callers of merge_trees() or merge_recursive() expected that
code to die() with an error message. This used to be okay because we
called those commands from scripts, and had a chance to print out a
message in case the command failed fatally (read: with exit code 128).
As scripting incurs its own set of problems (portability, speed,
idiosyncrasies of different shells, limited data structures leading to
inefficient code), we are converting more and more of these scripts into
builtins, using library functions directly.
We already tried to use merge_recursive() directly in the builtin
git-am, for example. Unfortunately, we had to roll it back temporarily
because some of the code in merge-recursive.c still deemed it okay to
call die(), when the builtin am code really wanted to print out a useful
advice after the merge failed fatally. In the next commits, we want to
fix that.
The code touched by this commit expected merge_trees() to die() with
some useful message when there is an error condition, but merge_trees()
is going to be improved by converting all die() calls to return error()
instead (i.e. return value -1 after printing out the message as before),
so that the caller can react more flexibly.
This is a step to prepare for the version of merge_trees() that no
longer dies, even if we just imitate the previous behavior by calling
exit(128): this is what callers of e.g. `git merge` have come to expect.
Note that the callers of the sequencer (revert and cherry-pick) already
fail fast even for the return value -1; The only difference is that they
now get a chance to say "<command> failed".
A caller of merge_trees() might want handle error messages themselves
(or even suppress them). As this patch is already complex enough, we
leave that change for a later patch.

For a commit with sha1 "1234abcd" and subject "foo", this
function produces a struct with three strings:
1. "foo"
2. "1234abcd... foo"
3. "parent of 1234abcd... foo"
It takes advantage of the fact that these strings are
subsets of each other, and allocates only _one_ string, with
pointers into the various parts. Unfortunately, this makes
the string allocation complicated and hard to follow.
Since we keep only one of these in memory at a time, we can
afford to simply allocate three strings. This lets us build
on tools like xstrfmt and avoid manual computation.
While we're here, we can also drop the ad-hoc
reimplementation of get_git_commit_encoding(), and simply
call that function.
