Triggered by one of brian's SHA-256 patch series, I looked at the reason why the SHA-1 collision test case passed when it shouldn't. Turns out that the regression test was not quite thorough enough, and the interactive rebase did regress recently. While in the area, I realized that the same bug exists in the code backing the rebase.missingCommitsCheck feature: the backed-up todo list uses shortened commit IDs that may very well become ambiguous during the rebase. For good measure, this patch series fixes that, too. Finally, I saw that git rebase --edit-todo reported the line in an awkward, maybe even incorrect, way when there was an ambiguous commit ID, and I also fixed that. To make sure that the code can be easily adapted to SHA-256 after these patches, I actually already made those adjustments on top and offered them up at https://github.com/bk2204/git/pull/1. Changes since v1: * Turned the error condition when parsing the todo list with just-expanded commit IDs failed into a BUG().
