Ben Knoble" , Patrick Steinhardt , Matt Hunter , Kristoffer Haugsbakk , Tuomas Ahola , Harald Nordgren , Harald Nordgren From: Harald Nordgren When "git rebase -i" squashes commits it builds an editor template with a "This is a combination of N commits." banner, a "This is the 1st/Nth commit message:" header above each kept message (or a "will be skipped" header for a dropped one), and a commented-out subject for any fixup!, squash! or amend! commit. The banner, the headers and the subject-commenting all live in static helpers in sequencer.c wired to the rebase state, so no other command can present a squash the same way. Pull the three pieces out into add_squash_combination_header(), add_squash_message_header() (which takes a flag for the "will be skipped" variant) and squash_subject_comment_len(), and use them from update_squash_messages() and append_squash_message(). Also move the todo_item_flags enum to the header, so a caller reading the output of todo_list_rearrange_squash() can tell an amend! (TODO_REPLACE_FIXUP_MSG) from a plain fixup!. A later change reuses all of this to give "git history squash" the same template. No change in behavior.
