rebase: start implementing it as a builtin
This commit imitates the strategy that was used to convert the difftool to a builtin. We start by renaming the shell script `git-rebase.sh` to `git-legacy-rebase.sh` and introduce a `builtin/rebase.c` that simply executes the shell script version, unless the config setting `rebase.useBuiltin` is set to `true`. The motivation behind this is to rewrite all the functionality of the shell script version in the aforementioned `rebase.c`, one by one and be able to conveniently test new features by configuring `rebase.useBuiltin`. In the original difftool conversion, if sane_execvp() that attempts to run the legacy scripted version returned with non-negative status, the command silently exited without doing anything with success, but sane_execvp() should not return with non-negative status in the first place, so we use die() to notice such an abnormal case. We intentionally avoid reading the config directly to avoid messing up the GIT_* environment variables when we need to fall back to exec()ing the shell script. The test of builtin rebase can be done by `git -c rebase.useBuiltin=true rebase ...` Signed-off-by: Pratik Karki <predatoramigo@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
