Use the configured comment character when generating comments about
branches in a todo list. Failure to honor this configuration causes a
failure to parse the resulting todo list.
Setting core.commentChar to "auto" will not be honored here, and the
previously configured or default value will be used instead. But, since
the todo list will consist of only generated content, there should not
be any non-comment lines beginning with that character.

When cherry-picking a single commit, we go through a special
code path that avoids creating a sequencer todo list at all.
This path expects our revision parsing to turn up exactly
one commit, and dies with a BUG if it doesn't.
But it's actually quite easy to fool. For example:
$ git cherry-pick --author=no.such.person HEAD
error: BUG: expected exactly one commit from walk
fatal: cherry-pick failed
This isn't a bug; it's just bogus input.
The condition to trigger this message actually has two
parts:
1. We saw no commits. That's the case in the example
above. Let's drop the "BUG" here to make it clear that
the input is the problem. And let's also use the phrase
"empty commit set passed", which matches what we say
when we do a real revision walk and it turns up empty.
2. We saw more than one commit. That one _should_ be
impossible to trigger, since we fed at most one tip and
provided the no_walk option (and we'll have already
expanded options like "--branches" that can turn into
multiple tips). If this ever triggers, it's an
indication that the conditional added by 7acaaac275
(revert: allow single-pick in the middle of cherry-pick
sequence, 2011-12-10) needs to more carefully define
the single-pick case.
So this can remain a bug, but we'll upgrade it to use
the BUG() macro, which would make it easier to detect
and analyze if it does trigger.

If the user gives us a set that prepare_revision_walk()
takes to be empty, like:
git cherry-pick base..base
then we report an error. It's nonsense, and there's nothing
to pick.
But if they use revision options that later cull the list,
like:
git cherry-pick --author=nobody base~2..base
then we quietly create an empty todo list and return
success.
Arguably either behavior is acceptable, but we should
definitely be consistent about it. Reporting an error
seems to match the original intent, which dates all the way
back to 7e2bfd3f99 (revert: allow cherry-picking more than
one commit, 2010-06-02). That in turn was trying to match
the single-commit case that existed before then (and which
continues to issue an error).

git-rebase.sh wrote strategy options to .git/rebase/merge/strategy_opts
in the following format:
'--ours' '--renormalize'
Note the double spaces.
git-rebase--interactive uses sequencer.c to parse that file, and
sequencer.c used split_cmdline() to get the individual strategy options.
After splitting, sequencer.c prefixed each "option" with a double dash,
so, concatenating all its options would result in:
-- --ours -- --renormalize
So, when it ended up calling try_merge_strategy(), that in turn would run
git merge-$strategy -- --ours -- --renormalize $merge_base -- $head $remote
instead of the expected/desired
git merge-$strategy --ours --renormalize $merge_base -- $head $remote
Remove the extra spaces so that when it goes through split_cmdline() we end
up with the desired command line.

Ever since commit 18633e1a22 ("rebase -i: use the rebase--helper builtin",
2017-02-09), when a commit marked as 'reword' in an interactive rebase
has conflicts and fails to apply, when the rebase is resumed that commit
will be squashed into its parent with its commit message taken.
The issue can be understood better by looking at commit 56dc3ab04b
("sequencer (rebase -i): implement the 'edit' command", 2017-01-02), which
introduced error_with_patch() for the edit command. For the edit command,
it needs to stop the rebase whether or not the patch applies cleanly. If
the patch does apply cleanly, then when it resumes it knows it needs to
amend all changes into the previous commit. If it does not apply cleanly,
then the changes should not be amended. Thus, it passes !res (success of
applying the 'edit' commit) to error_with_patch() for the to_amend flag.
The problematic line of code actually came from commit 04efc8b57c
("sequencer (rebase -i): implement the 'reword' command", 2017-01-02).
Note that to get to this point in the code:
* !!res (i.e. patch application failed)
* item->command < TODO_SQUASH
* item->command != TODO_EDIT
* !is_fixup(item->command) [i.e. not squash or fixup]
So that means this can only be a failed patch application that is either a
pick, revert, or reword. We only need to amend HEAD when rewording the
root commit or a commit that has been fast-forwarded, for any of the other
cases we want a new commit, so we should not set the to_amend flag.

When writing the todo script for --rebase-merges, we try to find a label
for certain commits. If the label ends up being a valid object ID, such
as when we merge a detached commit, we want to rewrite it so it is no
longer a valid object ID.
However, the code path that does this checks for its length to be
equivalent to GIT_SHA1_RAWSZ, which isn't correct, since what we are
reading is a hex object ID. Instead, check for the length being
equivalent to that of a hex object ID. Use the_hash_algo so this code
works regardless of the hash size.

In particular, this moves:
- read_object_file
- oid_object_info
- write_object_file
As a result, most of the codebase needs to #include object-store.h.
In this patch the #include is only added to files that would fail to

identifiers from the header are used. That can happen later

When an interactive rebase wants to recreate a root commit, it
- first creates a new, empty root commit,
- checks it out,
- converts the next `pick` command so that it amends the empty root
commit
Introduce support in the sequencer to handle such an empty root commit,
by looking for the file <GIT_DIR>/rebase-merge/squash-onto; if it exists
and contains a commit name, the sequencer will compare the HEAD to said
root commit, and if identical, a new root commit will be created.
While converting scripted code into proper, portable C, we also do away
with the old "amend with an empty commit message, then cherry-pick
without committing, then amend again" dance and replace it with code
that uses the internal API properly to do exactly what we want: create a
new root commit.
To keep the implementation simple, we always spawn `git commit` to create
new root commits.

In the context of the new --rebase-merges mode, which was designed
specifically to allow for changing the existing branch topology
liberally, a user may want to extract commits into a completely fresh
branch that starts with a newly-created root commit.
This is now possible by inserting the command `reset [new root]` before
`pick`ing the commit that wants to become a root commit. Example:
reset [new root]
pick 012345 a commit that is about to become a root commit
pick 234567 this commit will have the previous one as parent
This does not conflict with other uses of the `reset` command because
`[new root]` is not (part of) a valid ref name: both the opening bracket
as well as the space are illegal in ref names.

During a series of fixup/squash commands, the interactive rebase builds
up a commit message with comments. This will be presented to the user in
the editor if at least one of those commands was a `squash`.
In any case, the commit message will be cleaned up eventually, removing
all those intermediate comments, in the final step of such a
fixup/squash chain.
However, if the last fixup/squash command in such a chain fails with
merge conflicts, and if the user then decides to skip it (or resolve it
to a clean worktree and then continue the rebase), the current code
fails to clean up the commit message.
This commit fixes that behavior.
The fix is quite a bit more involved than meets the eye because it is
not only about the question whether we are `git rebase --skip`ing a
fixup or squash. It is also about removing the skipped fixup/squash's
commit message from the accumulated commit message. And it is also about
the question whether we should let the user edit the final commit
message or not ("Was there a squash in the chain *that was not
skipped*?").
For example, in this case we will want to fix the commit message, but
not open it in an editor:
pick <- succeeds
fixup <- succeeds
squash <- fails, will be skipped
This is where the newly-introduced `current-fixups` file comes in real
handy. A quick look and we can determine whether there was a non-skipped
squash. We only need to make sure to keep it up to date with respect to
skipped fixup/squash commands. As a bonus, we can even avoid committing
unnecessarily, e.g. when there was only one fixup, and it failed, and
was skipped.
To fix only the bug where the final commit message was not cleaned up
properly, but without fixing the rest, would have been more complicated
than fixing it all in one go, hence this commit lumps together more than
a single concern.
For the same reason, this commit also adds a bit more to the existing
test case for the regression we just fixed.
The diff is best viewed with --color-moved.

We previously relied on the localized versions of
# This is a combination of <N> commits
(which we write into the commit messages during fixup/squash chains)
to contain <N> encoded in ASCII.
This is not true in general, and certainly not true when compiled with
GETTEXT_POISON=TryToKillMe, as demonstrated by the regression test we
just introduced in t3418.
So let's decouple keeping track of the count from the (localized) commit
messages by introducing a new file called 'current-fixups' that keeps
track of the current fixup/squash chain. This file contains a bit more
than just the count (it contains a list of "fixup <commit>"/"squash
<commit>" lines). This is done on purpose, as it will come in handy for
a fix for the bug where `git rebase --skip` on a final fixup/squash will
leave the commit message in limbo.

When running `git rebase --rebase-merges` non-interactively with an
ancestor of HEAD as <upstream> (or leaving the todo list unmodified),
we would ideally recreate the exact same commits as before the rebase.
However, if there are commits in the commit range <upstream>.. that do not
have <upstream> as direct ancestor (i.e. if `git log <upstream>..` would
show commits that are omitted by `git log --ancestry-path <upstream>..`),
this is currently not the case: we would turn them into commits that have
<upstream> as direct ancestor.
Let's illustrate that with a diagram:
C
/ \
A - B - E - F
\ /
D
Currently, after running `git rebase -i --rebase-merges B`, the new branch
structure would be (pay particular attention to the commit `D`):
--- C' --
/ \
A - B ------ E' - F'
\ /
D'
This is not really preserving the branch topology from before! The
reason is that the commit `D` does not have `B` as ancestor, and
therefore it gets rebased onto `B`.
This is unintuitive behavior. Even worse, when recreating branch
structure, most use cases would appear to want cousins *not* to be
rebased onto the new base commit. For example, Git for Windows (the
heaviest user of the Git garden shears, which served as the blueprint
for --rebase-merges) frequently merges branches from `next` early, and
these branches certainly do *not* want to be rebased. In the example
above, the desired outcome would look like this:
--- C' --
/ \
A - B ------ E' - F'
\ /
-- D' --
Let's introduce the term "cousins" for such commits ("D" in the
example), and let's not rebase them by default. For hypothetical
use cases where cousins *do* need to be rebased, `git rebase
--rebase=merges=rebase-cousins` needs to be used.

The `git merge` command does not allow merging commits that are already
reachable from HEAD: `git merge HEAD^`, for example, will report that we
are already up to date and not change a thing.
In an interactive rebase, such a merge could occur previously, e.g. when
competing (or slightly modified) versions of a patch series were applied
upstream, and the user had to `git rebase --skip` all of the local
commits, and the topic branch becomes "empty" as a consequence.
Let's teach the todo command `merge` to behave the same as `git merge`.
Seeing as it requires some low-level trickery to create such merges with
Git's commands in the first place, we do not even have to bother to
introduce an option to force `merge` to create such merge commits.

In the previous patches, we implemented the basic functionality of the
`git rebase -i --rebase-merges` command, in particular the `merge`
command to create merge commits in the sequencer.
The interactive rebase is a lot more these days, though, than a simple
cherry-pick in a loop. For example, it calls the post-rewrite hook (if
any) after rebasing with a mapping of the old->new commits.
This patch implements the post-rewrite handling for the `merge` command
we just introduced. The other commands that were added recently (`label`
and `reset`) do not create new commits, therefore post-rewrite hooks do
not need to handle them.

The sequencer just learned new commands intended to recreate branch
structure (similar in spirit to --preserve-merges, but with a
substantially less-broken design).
Let's allow the rebase--helper to generate todo lists making use of
these commands, triggered by the new --rebase-merges option. For a
commit topology like this (where the HEAD points to C):
- A - B - C
\ /
D
the generated todo list would look like this:
# branch D
pick 0123 A
label branch-point
pick 1234 D
label D
reset branch-point
pick 2345 B
merge -C 3456 D # C
To keep things simple, we first only implement support for merge commits
with exactly two parents, leaving support for octopus merges to a later
patch series.
All merge-rebasing todo lists start with a hard-coded `label onto` line.
This makes it convenient to refer later on to the revision onto which
everything is rebased, e.g. as starting point for branches other than
the very first one.

Just like with regular `pick` commands, if we are trying to rebase a
merge commit, we now test whether the parents of said commit match HEAD
and the commits to be merged, and fast-forward if possible.
This is not only faster, but also avoids unnecessary proliferation of
new objects.

This patch is part of the effort to reimplement `--preserve-merges` with
a substantially improved design, a design that has been developed in the
Git for Windows project to maintain the dozens of Windows-specific patch
series on top of upstream Git.
The previous patch implemented the `label` and `reset` commands to label
commits and to reset to labeled commits. This patch adds the `merge`
command, with the following syntax:
merge [-C <commit>] <rev> # <oneline>
The <commit> parameter in this instance is the *original* merge commit,
whose author and message will be used for the merge commit that is about
to be created.
The <rev> parameter refers to the (possibly rewritten) revision to
merge. Let's see an example of a todo list (the initial `label onto`
command is an auto-generated convenience so that the label `onto` can be
used to refer to the revision onto which we rebase):
label onto
# Branch abc
reset onto
pick deadbeef Hello, world!
label abc
reset onto
pick cafecafe And now for something completely different
merge -C baaabaaa abc # Merge the branch 'abc' into master
To edit the merge commit's message (a "reword" for merges, if you will),
use `-c` (lower-case) instead of `-C`; this convention was borrowed from
`git commit` that also supports `-c` and `-C` with similar meanings.
To create *new* merges, i.e. without copying the commit message from an
existing commit, simply omit the `-C <commit>` parameter (which will
open an editor for the merge message):
merge abc
This comes in handy when splitting a branch into two or more branches.
Note: this patch only adds support for recursive merges, to keep things
simple. Support for octopus merges will be added later in a separate
patch series, support for merges using strategies other than the
recursive merge is left for the future.

In the upcoming commits, we will teach the sequencer to rebase merges.
This will be done in a very different way from the unfortunate design of
`git rebase --preserve-merges` (which does not allow for reordering
commits, or changing the branch topology).
The main idea is to introduce new todo list commands, to support
labeling the current revision with a given name, resetting the current
revision to a previous state, and merging labeled revisions.
This idea was developed in Git for Windows' Git garden shears (that are
used to maintain Git for Windows' "thicket of branches" on top of
upstream Git), and this patch is part of the effort to make it available
to a wider audience, as well as to make the entire process more robust
(by implementing it in a safe and portable language rather than a Unix
shell script).
This commit implements the commands to label, and to reset to, given
revisions. The syntax is:
label <name>
reset <name>
Internally, the `label <name>` command creates the ref
`refs/rewritten/<name>`. This makes it possible to work with the labeled
revisions interactively, or in a scripted fashion (e.g. via the todo
list command `exec`).
These temporary refs are removed upon sequencer_remove_state(), so that
even a `git rebase --abort` cleans them up.
We disallow '#' as label because that character will be used as separator
in the upcoming `merge` command.
Later in this patch series, we will mark the `refs/rewritten/` refs as
worktree-local, to allow for interactive rebases to be run in parallel in
worktrees linked to the same repository.
As typos happen, a failed `label` or `reset` command will be rescheduled
immediately. As the previous code to reschedule a command is embedded
deeply in the pick/fixup/squash code path, we simply duplicate the few
lines. This will allow us to extend the new code path easily for the
upcoming `merge` command.
