   3 # Watches for merges that had only local merges (e.g. should have been rebases).
   4 #
   5 # If they are introducing non-merge commits /and/ merge commits, it could
   6 # look like one of two ways. This way:
   7 #
   8 # * --- B --- * --- oldrev
   9 #        \             \
  10 #        new --- new --- newrev
  11 #
  12 # They basically had an un-shared local dev branch (probably by making a
  13 # merge) and instead should have done a rebase. Also, if they did:
  14 #
  15 # * --- B --- * --- oldrev
  16 #        \             \
  17 #        new --- new --- new -- newrev
  18 #
  19 # We should try and catch them--where the merge happened previously to
  20 # them doing more work in the newrev commit.
  21 #
  22 # But if it looks like:
  23 #
  24 # * --- B --- * --- oldrev
  25 #        \              \
  26 #        old --- new --- newrev
  27 #
  28 # Then they had a pre-shared branch that cannot be rebased and so they
  29 # were correct in doing a merge to tie "old" and "oldrev" together.
  30 #
  31 # Also, we obviously have to be okay with:
  32 #
  33 # * --- * --- * --- oldrev --- new --- new --- newrev
  34
  35 # Command line
  36 refname="$1"
  37 oldrev="$2"
  38 newrev="$3"
