[RFC PATCH v2] Chain squash!/fixup! commits on autosquash

From: =?UTF-8?q?Carlos=20Mart=C3=ADn=20Nieto?= <cmn@elego.de>

Separate the idea of an 'used' and an 'applied' line. Applied lines are the ones that have been moved to modify some commit whilst used lines are the ones for which we have tried to find modifications. Applied lines are given priority when looking for modifications. Thus, if one has these commits

    944f57d fixup! squash! six
    3512067 fixup! squash! squash! six
    49af780 fixup! fixup! one
    df6f708 fixup! one
    6ac57d9 one
    6e754da squash! squash! six
    733844b squash! six
    e9de3cc six
    76990c9 five

they will be correctly reordered to

    pick e9de3cc six
    squash 733844b squash! six
    squash 6e754da squash! squash! six
    fixup 944f57d fixup! squash! six
    fixup 3512067 fixup! squash! squash! six
    pick 6ac57d9 one
    fixup df6f708 fixup! one
    fixup 49af780 fixup! fixup! one

To be honest, I'm not sure if we want to support something like this, but it seemed too crazy not to try.

This is an attempt to fix http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.version-control.git/170883 (rebase autosquash doesn't recognise a chain of fixups, 2011-04-05)

Cheers,
   cmn
