Please clarify "was failing". I suspect that
When we can fast-forward to the updated upstream, "git pull
--rebase --autostash" in a dirty repository did not auto-stash
and failed. This was due to a short-cut to avoid running rebase
when we can fast-forward, but the autostash option was ignored
in that codepath.or something like that was what you meant.
"rebase" was not rewritten in C. Not the part that matters in making "pull --rebase" work anyway. Unlike the one in the earlier discussion, you are not removing the short-cut unconditionally; I do not think you need to justify the "bypassing" based on performance. If we need to take run_rebase() codepath when "--autostash" is in effect, we need to do so even if the result were somewhat slower for correctness (and it would not hurt to mention that actual measurement showed that it is dubious it is slower in the first place).
Missing sign-off.

> return run_merge();The scope of the "autostash" feels a bit unfortunate, but that is a direct consequence of having two "if (opt_rebase)" separated in the control flow, so it's not your fault.
When autostsash is in effect, you _know_ you do not have to compute is-descendant-of and you do not have to prepare merge_head or list here. I do not like deeply indented code, but perhaps like this one on top of your patch?

Do you need these semicolons? I thought we designed our test
helpers and eval's in such a way that we can write these without
them (iow, I thought these newlines should suffice).
