When doing a non-interactive rebase using a version of git earlier than 2.26, or by explicitly calling
git -c rebase.backend=apply rebase
, lazygit can display the pending todos by parsing the numbered patch files in.git/rebase-apply/
. Unfortunately, support for this has been broken for more than three years because of the change in 682db77 (the string literal "normal" should have been changed to REBASE_MODE_NORMAL instead of REBASE_MODE_MERGING).It's not an important bug since you can only get into this situation by doing a rebase outside of lazygit, and then only with a pretty old git version or by using very uncommon git options. So instead of fixing the bug, just remove the code.
This is an alternative to #3344.
