Since 0fbb95d (am: don't call mailinfo if $rebasing, 2012-06-26), the patch body to apply when running 'git am --rebasing' is not taken from the mbox, but directly from the commit. If such a commit is "empty", 'git am --rebasing' still happily applies it and commits. However, since the input to 'git am --rebasing' only ever comes from 'git format-patch', which completely leaves the commit out from its output if it's empty, no empty commits are ever created by 'git am --rebasing'. By teaching 'git am --rebasing' a --keep-empty option and letting the caller decide whether or not to keep empty commits, we can unify the two different mechanisms that git-rebase--am.sh uses for rebasing. --- git-am.sh | 10 +++++++++- git-rebase--am.sh | 20 ++++++-------------- 2 files changed, 15 insertions(+), 15 deletions(-) diff --git a/git-am.sh b/git-am.sh index b6a5300..37641b7 100755 --- a/git-am.sh +++ b/git-am.sh @@ -37,7 +37,8 @@ abort restore the original branch and abort the patching operation. committer-date-is-author-date lie about committer date ignore-date use current timestamp for author date rerere-autoupdate update the index with reused conflict resolution if possible -rebasing* (internal use for git-rebase)" +rebasing* (internal use for git-rebase) +keep-empty* (internal use for git-rebase)" . git-sh-setup . git-sh-i18n @@ -375,6 +376,7 @@ git_apply_opt= committer_date_is_author_date= ignore_date= allow_rerere_autoupdate= +keep_empty= if test "$(git config --bool --get am.keepcr)" = true then @@ -414,6 +416,8 @@ do abort=t ;; --rebasing) rebasing=t threeway=t ;; + --keep-empty) + keep_empty=t ;; -d|--dotest) die "$(gettext "-d option is no longer supported.
