Rebasing a commit that contains a diff in the commit message results in a failure with output such as First, rewinding head to replay your work on top of it... Applying: My cool patch. fatal: sha1 information is lacking or useless (app/controllers/settings_controller.rb). Repository lacks necessary blobs to fall back on 3-way merge. Cannot fall back to three-way merge. Patch failed at 0001 My cool patch. The reason is that 'git rebase' without -p/-i/-m internally calls 'git format-patch' and pipes the output to 'git am --rebasing', which has no way of knowing what is a real patch and what is a commit message that contains a patch. Make 'git am' while in --rebasing mode get the patch body from the commit object instead of extracting it from the mailbox. Patch by Junio, test case and commit log message by Martin.
