From: Phillip Wood <phillip.wood@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> If the user gives an empty argument to --exec then git creates a todo list that it cannot parse. The rebase starts to run before erroring out with error: missing arguments for exec error: invalid line 2: exec You can fix this with 'git rebase --edit-todo' and then run 'git rebase --continue'. Or you can abort the rebase with 'git rebase --abort'. Instead check for empty commands before starting the rebase. Also check that the command does not contain any newlines as the todo-list format is unable to cope with multiline commands. Note that this changes the behavior, before this change one could do git rebase --exec='echo one exec echo two' and it would insert two exec lines in the todo list, now it will error out. Signed-off-by: Phillip Wood <phillip.wood@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> --- Apologies for the resend but I messed up the from address on the previous send and I don't think it made it to the mailing list. Thanks for the comments. I've updated the code as suggested by Dscho and tried to make it clearer in the commit message that this is fixing git creating a todo-list that it cannot parse.
