When cherry-pick was written (v0.99.6~63, 2005-08-27), “git commit”
was quiet, and the output from cherry-pick provided useful information
about the progress of a rebase.
Now next to the output from “git commit”, the cherry-pick notification
is so much noise (except for the name of the picked commit).
$ git cherry-pick ..topic
Finished cherry-pick of 499088b.

[detached HEAD 058caa3] libdpkg: Add missing symbols to Versions script

The noise is especially troublesome when sifting through the output of
a rebase or multiple cherry-pick that eventually failed.
With the commit subject, it is already not hard to figure out where
the commit came from. So drop the “Finished” message.

In a test like:
test "$(git rev-parse --verify HEAD)" != "$(git rev-parse --verify fourth)"
the --verify does not accomplish much, since the exit status of
git rev-parse is not propagated to test. So it is more robust to
define and use the helper functions check_head_differs_from() and
check_head_equals() as done by this patch.

Instead of saying "Finished one cherry-pick." or "Finished one revert.",
we now say "Finished cherry-pick of commit <abbreviated sha1>." or
"Finished revert of commit <abbreviated sha1>." which is more informative,
especially when cherry-picking or reverting many commits.
In case of failure the message is now "Automatic cherry-pick of commit
<abbreviated sha1> failed." instead of "Automatic cherry-pick failed."

"git cherry-pick foo" has always reported success with
"Finished one cherry-pick" but "cherry-pick --strategy"
does not print anything. So move the code to write that
message from do_recursive_merge() to do_cherry_pick()
so other strategies can share it.
This patch also refactors the code that prints a message
like "Automatic cherry-pick failed. <help message>". This
code was duplicated in both do_recursive_merge() and
do_pick_commit().
To do that, now do_recursive_merge() returns an int to signal
success or failure. And in case of failure we just return 1
from do_pick_commit() instead of doing "exit(1)" from either
do_recursive_merge() or do_pick_commit().

This commit fixes one test in t3508 by making "cherry-pick -<num>"
walk the history.
A test update from Elijah Newren is squashed as an evil merge.
This can be useful to do something like:
git rev-list --reverse master -- README | git cherry-pick -n --stdin
without using xargs.

Each of the tests in t3508 begins by navigating to a sane state:
git checkout master &&
git reset --hard $commit
If a previous test left unmerged files around, they are untouched and
the checkout fails, causing later tests to fail, too. This is not a
problem in practice because no test except the final one produces
unmerged files.
But as a futureproofing measure, it is still best to avoid the problem
with 'checkout -f'. In particular, this is needed for new tests to be
added to the end of the script.

Note that there is an expected failure when running:
git cherry-pick -3 fourth
that's because:
git rev-list --no-walk -3 fourth
produce only one commit and not 3 as "--no-walk" seems to
take over "-3".
