Thanks for Junio's reviews and suggestions. This version contains the following changes since v4:
- Refine the commit log as well as the documentation according to Junio's comments. - Separate out get_base_commit function from prepare_bases to obtain the base commit. - Use repeated pair-wise computation to get the merge base for the validation of base commit. - Extract "auto handling thing" from prepare_bases and put it into get_base_commit. - Use format.useAutoBase boolean variable for the auto configuration in format section. Thanks, Xiaolong.
