Subject: builtin rebase: support `--allow-empty-message` option
X-Git-Tag: v2.20.0-rc0~91^2~5
X-Git-Url: https://granicus.if.org/sourcecode?a=commitdiff_plain;h=9b3a448b4eee25050dc1e1c14c886e27e2985819;p=git

builtin rebase: support `--allow-empty-message` option

This commit introduces the `--allow-empty-message` option to
`builtin/rebase.c`. The motivation behind this option is: if there are
empty messages (which is not allowed in Git by default, but can be
imported from different version control systems), the rebase will fail.

Using `--allow-empty-message` overrides that behaviour which will allow
the commits having empty messages to continue in rebase operation.

Note: a very recent change made this the default in the shell scripted
`git rebase`, therefore the builtin rebase does the same.
