git/templates/hooks--pre-rebase
Junio C Hamano 9a111c91b0 rebase: allow a hook to refuse rebasing.
This lets a hook to interfere a rebase and help prevent certain
branches from being rebased by mistake.  A sample hook to show
how to prevent a topic branch that has already been merged into
publish branch.

This sample hook safeguards topic branches that have been
published from being rewound.
The workflow assumed here is:
* Once a topic branch forks from "master", "master" is never
merged into it again (either directly or indirectly).
* Once a topic branch is fully cooked and merged into "master",
it is deleted. If you need to build on top of it to correct
earlier mistakes, a new topic branch is created by forking at
the tip of the "master". This is not strictly necessary, but
it makes it easier to keep your history simple.
* Whenever you need to test or publish your changes to topic
branches, merge them into "next" branch.
The script, being an example, hardcodes the publish branch name
to be "next", but it is trivial to make it configurable via
$GIT_DIR/config mechanism.
With this workflow, you would want to know:
(1) ... if a topic branch has ever been merged to "next". Young
topic branches can have stupid mistakes you would rather
clean up before publishing, and things that have not been
merged into other branches can be easily rebased without
affecting other people. But once it is published, you would
not want to rewind it.
(2) ... if a topic branch has been fully merged to "master".
Then you can delete it. More importantly, you should not
build on top of it -- other people may already want to
change things related to the topic as patches against your
"master", so if you need further changes, it is better to
fork the topic (perhaps with the same name) afresh from the
tip of "master".
Let's look at this example:
o---o---o---o---o---o---o---o---o---o "next"
/ / / /
/ a---a---b A / /
/ / / /
/ / c---c---c---c B /
/ / / \ /
/ / / b---b C \ /
/ / / / \ /
---o---o---o---o---o---o---o---o---o---o---o "master"
A, B and C are topic branches.
* A has one fix since it was merged up to "next".
* B has finished. It has been fully merged up to "master" and "next",
and is ready to be deleted.
* C has not merged to "next" at all.
We would want to allow C to be rebased, refuse A, and encourage
B to be deleted.
To compute (1):
git-rev-list ^master ^topic next
git-rev-list ^master next
if these match, topic has not merged in next at all.
To compute (2):
git-rev-list master..topic
if this is empty, it is fully merged to "master".
