reflogs: clear flags properly in corner case
The reflog-walking mechanism is based on the regular
revision traversal. We just rewrite the parents of each
commit in fake_reflog_parent to point to the commit in the
next reflog entry instead of the real parents.
However, the regular revision traversal tries not to show
the same commit twice, and so sets the SHOWN flag on each
commit it shows. In a reflog, however, we may want to see
the same commit more than once if it appears in the reflog
multiple times (which easily happens, for example, if you do
a reset to a prior state).
The fake_reflog_parent function takes care of this by
clearing flags, including SHOWN. Unfortunately, it does so
at the very end of the function, and it is possible to
return early from the function if there is no fake parent to
set up (e.g., because we are at the very first reflog entry
on the branch). In such a case the flag is not cleared, and
the entry is skipped by the revision traversal machinery as
already shown.
You can see this by walking the log of a ref which is set to
its very first commit more than once (the test below shows
such a situation). In this case the reflog walk will fail to
show the entry for the initial creation of the ref.
We don't want to simply move the flag-clearing to the top of
the function; we want to make sure flags set during the
fake-parent installation are also cleared. Instead, let's
hoist the flag-clearing out of the fake_reflog_parent
function entirely. It's not really about fake parents
anyway, and the only caller is the get_revision machinery.

reset: give better reflog messages
The reset command creates its reflog entry from argv.
However, it does so after having run parse_options, which
means the only thing left in argv is any non-option
arguments. Thus you would end up with confusing reflog
entries like:
$ git reset --hard HEAD^
$ git reset --soft HEAD@{1}
$ git log -2 -g --oneline
8e46cad HEAD@{0}: HEAD@{1}: updating HEAD
1eb9486 HEAD@{1}: HEAD^: updating HEAD
However, we must also consider that some scripts may set
GIT_REFLOG_ACTION before calling reset, and we need to show
their reflog action (with our text appended). For example:
rebase -i (squash): updating HEAD
On top of that, we also set the ORIG_HEAD reflog action
(even though it doesn't generally exist). In that case, the
reset argument is somewhat meaningless, as it has nothing to
do with what's in ORIG_HEAD.
This patch changes the reset reflog code to show:
$GIT_REFLOG_ACTION: updating {HEAD,ORIG_HEAD}
as before, but only if GIT_REFLOG_ACTION is set. Otherwise,
show:
reset: moving to $rev
for HEAD, and:
reset: updating ORIG_HEAD
for ORIG_HEAD (this is still somewhat superfluous, since we
are in the ORIG_HEAD reflog, obviously, but at least we now
mention which command was used to update it).
While we're at it, we can clean up the code a bit:
- Use strbufs to make the message.
- Use the "rev" parameter instead of showing all options.
This makes more sense, since it is the only thing
impacting the writing of the ref.
