rebase: add the --inmemory option flag; assign a wctx object for the rebase
ClosedPublic

Summary

In the future, the --inmemory flag might be deprecated in favor of something more
intelligent (for example, always rebasing in-memory if the working copy parent
isn't in the rebaseset). But we might keep it as a way to explicitly force IMM
on or off.

Perhaps the option should be flagged experimental then?

Also, would be nice to have some test coverage.

Not sure this is needed.

I've gone through this series and landed some of the easy stuff. Let's get the comments on this one addressed and rebase the rest and see if we can get it in before everyone goes on Christmas vacations?

This is useless because "inmemory" will be in opts and because you wrote opts.get('inmemory', False) in rebaseruntime.__init__() above.

Unless I missed it, there's still no test at all for the --inmemory
option in this series.

We can't easily get rid of command-line options so this should be
'experimental.inmemory' or similar. Also, I view inmemory as an
implementation detail that shouldn't be exposed to the user.

Phil is planning to follow up with the config knob, and I hope to test this aggressively at Google and make it default if we don't find any bugs.

Same for me here (it's what we already do basically).

Given that most users will be using the config knob (and eventually, nothing at all), I can just send a followup to rename to experimental.inmmemory. Nobody is using it yet.

Thanks. I'll send a followup.
