Johannes Schindelin aa4df107e7 tests: stop testing `git rebase --preserve-merges`
This backend has been deprecated in favor of `git rebase
--rebase-merges`.

In preparation for dropping it, let's remove all the regression tests
that would need it.

Johannes Schindelin d1c02d93b3 t34*: adjust the references to the default branch name "main"
Carefully excluding t3404, which sees independent development elsewhere
at the time of writing, we use `main` as the default branch name in
t34*. This trick was performed via

	$ (cd t &&
	   sed -i -e 's/master/main/g' -e 's/MASTER/MAIN/g' \
		-e 's/Master/Main/g' -- t34*.sh &&
	   git checkout HEAD -- t34\*)

This allows us to define `GIT_TEST_DEFAULT_INITIAL_BRANCH_NAME=main`
for those tests.

Johannes Schindelin 334afbc76f tests: mark tests relying on the current default for `init.defaultBranch`
In addition to the manual adjustment to let the `linux-gcc` CI job run
the test suite with `master` and then with `main`, this patch makes sure
that GIT_TEST_DEFAULT_INITIAL_BRANCH_NAME is set in all test scripts
that currently rely on the initial branch name being `master by default.

To determine which test scripts to mark up, the first step was to
force-set the default branch name to `master` in

- all test scripts that contain the keyword `master`,

- t4211, which expects `t/t4211/history.export` with a hard-coded ref to
  initialize the default branch,

- t5560 because it sources `t/t556x_common` which uses `master`,

- t8002 and t8012 because both source `t/annotate-tests.sh` which also
  uses `master`)

This trick was performed by this command:

	$ sed -i '/^ *\. \.\/\(test-lib\|lib-\(bash\|cvs\|git-svn\)\|gitweb-lib\)\.sh$/i\
	GIT_TEST_DEFAULT_INITIAL_BRANCH_NAME=master\
	export GIT_TEST_DEFAULT_INITIAL_BRANCH_NAME\
	' $(git grep -l master t/t[0-9]*.sh) \
	t/t4211*.sh t/t5560*.sh t/t8002*.sh t/t8012*.sh

After that, careful, manual inspection revealed that some of the test
scripts containing the needle `master` do not actually rely on a
specific default branch name: either they mention `master` only in a
comment, or they initialize that branch specificially, or they do not
actually refer to the current default branch. Therefore, the
aforementioned modification was undone in those test scripts thusly:

	$ git checkout HEAD -- \
		t/t0027-auto-crlf.sh t/t0060-path-utils.sh \
		t/t1011-read-tree-sparse-checkout.sh \
		t/t1305-config-include.sh t/t1309-early-config.sh \

		t/t7508-status.sh t/t7606-merge-custom.sh \
		t/t9302-fast-import-unpack-limit.sh

We excluded one set of test scripts in these commands, though: the range
of `git p4` tests. The reason? `git p4` stores the (foreign) remote
branch in the branch called `p4/master`, which is obviously not the
default branch. Manual analysis revealed that only five of these tests
actually require a specific default branch name to pass; They were
modified thusly:

	$ sed -i '/^ *\. \.\/lib-git-p4\.sh$/i\
	GIT_TEST_DEFAULT_INITIAL_BRANCH_NAME=master\
	export GIT_TEST_DEFAULT_INITIAL_BRANCH_NAME\
	' t/t980[0167]*.sh t/t9811*.sh

Johannes Schindelin b6211b89eb tests: avoid variations of the `master` branch name
The term `master` has a loaded history that serves as a constant
reminder of racial injustice. The Git project has no desire to
perpetuate this and already started avoiding it.

The test suite uses variations of this name for branches other than the
default one. Apart from t3200, where we just addressed this in the
previous commit, those instances can be renamed in an automated manner
because they do not require any changes outside of the test script, so
let's do that.

Seeing as the touched branches have very little (if anything) to do with
the default branch, we choose to use a completely separate naming
scheme: `topic_<number>` (it cannot be `topic-<number>` because t5515
uses the `test_oid` machinery with the term, and that machinery uses
shell variables internally, whose names cannot contain dashes).

This trick was performed by this (GNU) sed invocation:

	$ sed -i 's/master\([a-z0-9]\)/topic_\1/g' t/t*.sh

Elijah Newren e98c4269c8 rebase (interactive-backend): fix handling of commits that become empty
As established in the previous commit and commit b00bf1c9a8
(git-rebase: make --allow-empty-message the default, 2018-06-27), the
behavior for rebase with different backends in various edge or corner
cases is often more happenstance than design.  This commit addresses
another such corner case: commits which "become empty".

A careful reader may note that there are two types of commits which would
become empty due to a rebase:

  * [clean cherry-pick] Commits which are clean cherry-picks of upstream
    commits, as determined by `git log --cherry-mark ...`.  Re-applying
    these commits would result in an empty set of changes and a
    duplicative commit message; i.e. these are commits that have
    "already been applied" upstream.

  * [become empty] Commits which are not empty to start, are not clean
    cherry-picks of upstream commits, but which still become empty after
    being rebased.  This happens e.g. when a commit has changes which
    are a strict subset of the changes in an upstream commit, or when
    the changes of a commit can be found spread across or among several
    upstream commits.

Clearly, in both cases the changes in the commit in question are found
upstream already, but the commit message may not be in the latter case.

When cherry-mark can determine a commit is already upstream, then
because of how cherry-mark works this means the upstream commit message
was about the *exact* same set of changes.  Thus, the commit messages
can be assumed to be fully interchangeable (and are in fact likely to be
completely identical).  As such, the clean cherry-pick case represents a
case when there is no information to be gained by keeping the extra
commit around.  All rebase types have always dropped these commits, and
no one to my knowledge has ever requested that we do otherwise.

For many of the become empty cases (and likely even most), we will also
be able to drop the commit without loss of information -- but this isn't
quite always the case.  Since these commits represent cases that were
not clean cherry-picks, there is no upstream commit message explaining
the same set of changes.  Projects with good commit message hygiene will
likely have the explanation from our commit message contained within or
spread among the relevant upstream commits, but not all projects run
that way.  As such, the commit message of the commit being rebased may
have reasoning that suggests additional changes that should be made to
adapt to the new base, or it may have information that someone wants to
add as a note to another commit, or perhaps someone even wants to create
an empty commit with the commit message as-is.

Junio commented on the "become-empty" types of commits as follows[1]:

    WRT a change that ends up being empty (as opposed to a change that
    is empty from the beginning), I'd think that the current behaviour
    is desireable one.  "am" based rebase is solely to transplant an
    existing history and want to stop much less than "interactive" one
    whose purpose is to polish a series before making it publishable,
    and asking for confirmation ("this has become empty--do you want to
    drop it?") is more appropriate from the workflow point of view.

[1] https://lore.kernel.org/git/xmqqfu1fswdh.fsf@gitster-ct.c.googlers.com/

I would simply add that his arguments for "am"-based rebases actually
apply to all non-explicitly-interactive rebases.  Also, since we are
stating that different cases should have different defaults, it may be
worth providing a flag to allow users to select which behavior they want
for these commits.

Introduce a new command line flag for selecting the desired behavior:
    --empty={drop,keep,ask}
with the definitions:
    drop: drop commits which become empty
    keep: keep commits which become empty
    ask:  provide the user a chance to interact and pick what to do with
          commits which become empty on a case-by-case basis

In line with Junio's suggestion, if the --empty flag is not specified,
pick defaults as follows:
    explicitly interactive: ask
    otherwise: drop

Elijah Newren d48e5e21da rebase (interactive-backend): make --keep-empty the default
Different rebase backends have different treatment for commits which
start empty (i.e. have no changes relative to their parent), and the
--keep-empty option was added at some point to allow adjusting behavior.
The handling of commits which start empty is actually quite similar to
commit b00bf1c9a8 (git-rebase: make --allow-empty-message the default,
2018-06-27), which pointed out that the behavior for various backends is
often more happenstance than design.  The specific change made in that
commit is actually quite relevant as well and much of the logic there
directly applies here.

It makes a lot of sense in 'git commit' to error out on the creation of
empty commits, unless an override flag is provided.  However, once
someone determines that there is a rare case that merits using the
manual override to create such a commit, it is somewhere between
annoying and harmful to have to take extra steps to keep such
intentional commits around.  Granted, empty commits are quite rare,
which is why handling of them doesn't get considered much and folks tend
to defer to existing (accidental) behavior and assume there was a reason
for it, leading them to just add flags (--keep-empty in this case) that
allow them to override the bad defaults.  Fix the interactive backend so
that --keep-empty is the default, much like we did with
--allow-empty-message.  The am backend should also be fixed to have
--keep-empty semantics for commits that start empty, but that is not
included in this patch other than a testcase documenting the failure.

Note that there was one test in t3421 which appears to have been written
expecting --keep-empty to not be the default as correct behavior.  This
test was introduced in commit 00b8be5a4d ("add tests for rebasing of
empty commits", 2013-06-06), which was part of a series focusing on
rebase topology and which had an interesting original cover letter at
https://lore.kernel.org/git/1347949878-12578-1-git-send-email-martinvonz@gmail.com/
which noted
    Your input especially appreciated on whether you agree with the
    intent of the test cases.
and then went into a long example about how one of the many tests added
had several questions about whether it was correct.  As such, I believe
most the tests in that series were about testing rebase topology with as
many different flags as possible and were not trying to state in general
how those flags should behave otherwise.

fast-export and fast-import can easily handle the simple rewrite that
was being done by filter-branch, and should be faster on systems with a
slow fork.  Measuring the overall time taken for all of t3427 (not just

a speedup of about 5% on Linux and 11% on Mac.

Johannes Schindelin e1fac531ea rebase -r: do not (re-)generate root commits with `--root` *and* `--onto`
When rebasing a complete commit history onto a given commit, it is
pretty obvious that the root commits should be rebased on top of said
given commit.

To test this, let's kill two birds with one stone and add a test case to
t3427-rebase-subtree.sh that not only demonstrates that this works, but
also that `git rebase -r` works with merge strategies now.

Johannes Schindelin 4e6023b13a t3427: fix another incorrect assumption
The test case that concerns `git rebase -Xsubtree` (with the
default rebase backend, not with `--preserve-merges`) starts out with a
pre-rebase commit history that begins with a commit that introduces
three files: master1.t, master2.t and master3.t.

This commit was generated by passing a subtree merge commit through `git
filter-branch --subdirectory-filter`, so it looks as if this commit
really introduces all those files.

The commit history onto which this commit is then rebased, however,
introduced those files in individual commits. For that reason, the
rebase will fail, it _must_ fail, because the first `pick` results in no
changes to be committed.

Let's fix the test case to expect exactly this situation.

With this change, we can mark the original bug that this test case tried
to demonstrate as fixed.

Johannes Schindelin f67336dabf t3427: accommodate for the `rebase --merge` backend having been replaced
Since 68aa495b59 (rebase: implement --merge via the interactive
machinery, 2018-12-11), the job of the old `--merge` backend is now
performed by the `--interactive` backend, too.

One consequence is that empty commits are no longer rebased by default.

Meaning that the test case that calls `git rebase -Xsubtree` (which used
to be handled by the `--merge` backend) now needs to ask explicitly for
the empty commit to be rebased.

Johannes Schindelin a9c71073da t3427: fix erroneous assumption
Apart from the `setup` test case, `t3427-rebase-subtree.sh` is made up
exclusively of demonstrations of breakages. The tricky thing about such
demonstrations is that they are often buggy themselves.

In this instance, somewhere over the course of the six iterations
of the patch that eventually made it into Git's `master` as 5f35900849
(contrib/subtree: Add a test for subtree rebase that loses commits,
2016-06-28), the commit message "files_subtree/master4" was changed to
just "master4", but the test cases still expected the old commit
message.

Johannes Schindelin b8c6f24255 t3427: condense the unnecessarily repetitive test cases into three
Previously, this test script performed essentially three rebases and
verified breakages by testing the post-rebase commits' messages.

To do so, the rebases were performed multiple times, though, once per
commit message to test. This wastes electricity (and CO2) and time.

Let's condense the test cases to the essential number: the number of
different rebases to validate.

On Windows, where the scripted nature of the `--preserve-merges` backend
hurts performance rather badly, this reduces the overall runtime in this
developer's setup from ~1m to ~28s while still performing the exact same
testing as before.

The step to prepare a pre-rebase commit history is _identical_ in _all_
of the test cases (except of course the `setup` case). It should
therefore clearly a part of the `setup` test case instead.

As the `git filter-branch` command is quite costly on platforms where
Unix shell scripting is simply slow (meaning: on Windows), this shaves
off a noticeable part of the runtime: in this developer's setup, the
time was reduced from ~1m25s to ~1m.
