[PATCH 0/6] Towards a generalized sequencer

[Ramkumar Ramachandra <artagnon@gmail.com>]

Hi,

I've prepared a nicer series after Jonathan's feedback on the previous
one.  No new ideas; just the same ideas implemented in a more sane
way.  The first three patches fix some minor annoyances and don't
dontribute much to the series in general.  The fourth patch implements
a very important idea: the ability to parse a general (action,
operand) pair in the instruction sheet.  The fifth patch may come as a
real shocker; I was shocked myself, but I'm now convinced that this is
the right way forward.  Since it's only code movement, it should be
very easy to review.  The final patch solves a long-standing problem
by introducing tighter coupling between 'git commit' and the
sequencer.

Thanks for lending a ear.  Enjoy reading the rest!

Note: I didn't know what to do with the license header in the fifth
patch.  I just assumed that it was some historical cruft and removed
it.

  revert: Don't remove the sequencer state on error
  revert: Free memory after get_message call
  revert: Parse instruction sheet more cautiously
  revert: Allow mixed pick and revert instructions
  sequencer: Expose API to cherry-picking machinery
  sequencer: Remove sequencer state after final commit
