In later stage of rebasing, we will make a ref in
refs/rewritten/<label>, this label is extracted from the subject of
current merge commit.

If that subject has forbidden character for refname, git couldn't create
the rewritten ref. One such case is the merge commit subject has
a multibyte character encoded in ISO-2022-JP.

Provide a sane fallback in order to help git-rebase works in such case

Good find. Not having worked much with this part of the sequencer code,
I don't have a strong opinion on the fallback label. But it seems better
than the current behavior would be.

I suspect there may be other subtle problems, too, for filesystems that
can't represent some part of the subject (e.g., I wonder if some of your
ISO-2022-JP tests might already have trouble on HFS+, which excepts all
paths to be UTF-8).

A minor nit, but I think it's better here to just call oid_to_hex()
twice, rather than assigning to the hex_oid variable. It's returning a
pointer to a static buffer, so holding onto the pointers for too long is
dangerous. What you have here is definitely OK, because nothing
interesting happens in between, but seeing any assignment of the result
of "oid_to_hex" makes auditing harder.

And it's not like it's that expensive, or that this is
performance-critical code (and if it were, we'd do better to use
oid_to_hex_r() directly into the strbuf anyway).

There's been some discussion about sanitizing the subject recently 
[1,2]. It would be good to co-ordinate this effort with that one

Best Wishes

There was an alternative patch under discussion, one that also addressed
problem like e.g. characters that are illegal in Windows file names:
https://github.com/gitgitgadget/git/pull/327

Unfortunately, the reviews asked for an extensive revision for which I have
not been able to find the time to implement them.

Having said that, I think that the solution proposed over there is more
complete, and maybe even more robust (nothing in your patch prevents
`label-<hex-oid>` to _already_ having been taken by another label).

Ciao,
Dscho

Good thinking.  Let me drop this last one from the series in the
meantime.

Thanks.
