The different types of rebase use different ways of calculating the
patches to rebase.
'git rebase' (without -m/-i/-p) uses
git format-patch --ignore-if-in-upstream $upstream..$orig_head
'git rebase -m' uses
git rev-list $upstream..$orig_head
'git rebase -i' (without -p) uses
git rev-list $upstream...$orig_head --left-right --no-merges \
--cherry-pick | sed -n "s/^>//p"
, which could also have been written
git rev-list $upstream...$orig_head --right-only --no-merges \
--cherry-pick
'git rebase -p' uses
git rev-list $upstream...$orig_head --right-only
followed by cherry-picked commits found by
git rev-list $upstream...$orig_head --cherry-mark --right-only |
| sed -ne "s/^=//p"
As Knut Franke reported in [1], the fact that there is no
--ignore-if-in-upstream or equivalent when using merge-based rebase
means that unnecessary conflicts can arise due to commits
cherry-picked between $orig_head and $upstream.
With all the other types, there is a different problem with the method
of calculating the commits to rebase. Copying the example history from
[1]:
.-c
/
a---b---d---e---f
\
.-g---E
Commit E is here a cherry-pick of e. If we now run 'git rebase [-i|-p]
--onto c f E', the commits to rebase will be those on E that are not
equivalent to any of those in f, which in this case would be only
'g'. Commit 'E' would thus be lost.
To solve both of the above problems, we want to find the commits in
$upstream..$orig_head that are not cherry-picked in
$orig_head..$onto. There is unfortunately no direct way of finding
these commits using 'git rev-list', so we will have to resort to using
'git cherry' and filter for lines starting with '+'. This works for
all but 'rebase -p', since 'git cherry' ignores merges.
As a side-effect, we also avoid the cost of formatting patches.
Test case updates for 'rebase -m' by Knut, the rest by Martin.
