Merge branch 'js/rebase-recreate-merge'

"git rebase" learned "--rebase-merges" to transplant the whole
topology of commit graph elsewhere.

* js/rebase-recreate-merge:
  rebase -i --rebase-merges: add a section to the man page
  rebase -i: introduce --rebase-merges=[no-]rebase-cousins
  pull: accept --rebase=merges to recreate the branch topology
  rebase --rebase-merges: avoid "empty merges"
  sequencer: handle post-rewrite for merge commands
  sequencer: make refs generated by the `label` command worktree-local
  rebase --rebase-merges: add test for --keep-empty
  rebase: introduce the --rebase-merges option
  rebase-helper --make-script: introduce a flag to rebase merges
  sequencer: fast-forward `merge` commands, if possible
  sequencer: introduce the `merge` command
  sequencer: introduce new commands to reset the revision
  git-rebase--interactive: clarify arguments
  sequencer: offer helpful advice when a command was rescheduled
  sequencer: refactor how original todo list lines are accessed
  sequencer: make rearrange_squash() a bit more obvious
  sequencer: avoid using errno clobbered by rollback_lock_file()
