[PATCH 8/9] revert: report fine-grained error messages from insn parser

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Three kinds of errors can arise from parsing '.git/sequencer/todo':
1. Unrecognized action
2. Malformed object name
3. Object name does not refer to a valid commit

Since we would like to make the instruction sheet user-editable in the
future (much like the 'rebase -i' sheet), report more fine-grained
parse errors prefixed with the filename and line number.
