Recent "git am" had regression when adding a Signed-off-by line
with its "-s" option by an unintended tightening of how an existing
trailer block is detected.
* jc/builtin-am-signoff-regression-fix:
am: match --signoff to the original scripted version
Linus noticed that the recently reimplemented "git am -s" defines
the trailer block too rigidly, resulting in an unnecessary blank
line between the existing sign-offs and his new sign-off. An e-mail
submission sent to Linus in real life ends with mixture of sign-offs
and commentaries, e.g.

patch here
Because the reimplementation reused append_signoff() helper that is
used by other codepaths, which is unaware that people intermix such
comments with their sign-offs in the trailer block, such a message
was judged to end with a non-trailer, resulting in an extra blank
line before adding a new sign-off.
The original scripted version of "git am" used a lot looser
definition, i.e. "if and only if there is no line that begins with
Signed-off-by:, add a blank line before adding a new sign-off". For
the upcoming release, stop using the append_signoff() in "git am"
and reimplement the looser definition used by the scripted version
to use only in "git am" to fix this regression in "am" while
avoiding new regressions to other users of append_signoff().
In the longer term, we should look into loosening append_signoff()
so that other codepaths that add a new sign-off behave the same way
as "git am -s", but that is a task for post-release.

There's a bug in builtin/am.c in which we take a lock on
MERGE_RR recursively. But rather than fix am.c, this patch
fixes the confusing interface from rerere.c that caused the
bug. Read on for the gory details.
The setup_rerere() function both reads the existing MERGE_RR
file, and takes MERGE_RR.lock. In the rerere() and
rerere_forget() functions, we end up in write_rr(), which
will then commit the lock file.
But for functions like rerere_clear() that do not write to
MERGE_RR, we expect the caller to have handled
setup_rerere(). That caller would then need to release the
lockfile, but it can't; the lock struct is local to
rerere.c.
For builtin/rerere.c, this is OK. We run a single rerere
operation and then exit immediately, which has the side
effect of rolling back the lockfile.
But in builtin/am.c, this is actively wrong. If we run "git
am -3 --skip", we call setup-rerere twice without releasing
the lock:
1. The "--skip" causes us to call am_rerere_clear(), which
calls setup_rerere(), but never drops the lock.
2. We then proceed to the next patch.
3. The "--3way" may cause us to call rerere() to handle
conflicts in that patch, but we are already holding the
lock. The lockfile code dies with:
BUG: prepare_tempfile_object called for active object
We could fix this by having rerere_clear() call
rollback_lock_file(). But it feels a bit odd for it to roll
back a lockfile that it did not itself take. So let's
simplify the interface further, and handle setup_rerere in
the function itself, taking away the question from the
caller over whether they need to do so.
We can give rerere_gc() the same treatment, as well (even
though it doesn't have any callers besides builtin/rerere.c
at this point). Note that these functions don't take flags
from their callers to pass along to setup_rerere; that's OK,
because the flags would not be meaningful for what they are
doing.
Both of those functions need to hold the lock because even
though they do not write to MERGE_RR, they are still writing
and should be protected from a simultaneous "rerere" run.
But rerere_remaining(), "rerere diff", and "rerere status"
are all read-only operations. They want to setup_rerere(),
but do not care about taking the lock in the first place.
Since our update of MERGE_RR is the usual atomic rename done
by commit_lock_file, they can just do a lockless read. For
that, we teach setup_rerere a READONLY flag to avoid the
lock.
As a bonus, this pushes builtin/rerere.c's setup_rerere call
closer to the functions that use it. Which means that "git
rerere totally-bogus-command" will no longer silently
exit(0) in a repository without rerere enabled.

"git describe" without argument defaulted to describe the HEAD
commit, but "git describe --contains" didn't. Arguably, in a

Recent reimplementation of "git am" changed the format of state

write_file() interface to make it harder to misuse.
