[PATCH] git-rebase--{interactive,preserve-merges}: fix formatting of todo help message

[Tobias Klauser]

Part of the todo help message in git-rebase--interactive.sh and
git-rebase--preserve-merges.sh is unnecessarily indented, making the
message look weird:

  # These lines can be re-ordered; they are executed from top to bottom.
  #
  # If you remove a line here THAT COMMIT WILL BE LOST.
  #
  #       However, if you remove everything, the rebase will be aborted.
  #
  #
  # Note that empty commits are commented out

Remove the extra lines and trailing indent to make it look as follows:

  # These lines can be re-ordered; they are executed from top to bottom.
  #
  # If you remove a line here THAT COMMIT WILL BE LOST.
  #
  # However, if you remove everything, the rebase will be aborted.
  #
  # Note that empty commits are commented out

Thank you for this contribution!

Funnily enough, the same fix had been provided here:
https://public-inbox.org/git/614F0C12-7173-48BD-9212-71AD6FBBDAA7@dana.is/
although only for `git-rebase--interactive.sh`.

In that thread, we agreed that it overlaps too much with a GSoC project,
and that that project already addresses the same problem by way of
rewriting that part in C (and therefore we decided it would be better to
go with those patches).

However, your patch also covers this:

>  git-rebase--preserve-merges.sh | 4 ++--

I completely missed that in the earlier patch.

Junio, this gets an ACK from me, could you apply the
`git-rebase--preserve-merges.sh` part selectively, please?

Ciao,
Johannes

Unfortunately I don't follow git development that closely anymore, so I
wasn't aware of the previous patch and the discussion. Sorry about the
duplication/conflict.

And I'm glad to see that this part will be rewritten in C :-)

Let me know if I should provide an updated patch just for
git-rebase--preserve-merges.sh

Thanks
Tobias

I think we'll have to wait for tomorrow to get an answer to this; today is
a holiday in the States.

Ciao,

Here is what I assembled from various pieces in the list archive.

Subject: [PATCH] git-rebase--preserve-merges: fix formatting of todo help message

Part of the todo help message in git-rebase--preserve-merges.sh is
unnecessarily indented, making the message look weird.  Remove the
extra lines and trailing indent.

This was a minor regression introduced by d48f97aa ("rebase:
reindent function git_rebase__interactive", 2018-03-23) in the 2.18
timeframe.  The same issue exists in "rebase -i", but it is being
addressed separately as part of the rewrite of the subcommand into C.
