Is that call to log_tree_commit() a big elephant in the room? All of the die() we see above you are making into error() are rather unlikely conditions (e.g. you created a commit, and try to look it up immediately after that, and you somehow fail to find it); log_tree_commit() makes tons more object accesses, any of which would be equally likely to fail and die. It definitely is a good thing to eventually make a direct in-process call into the commit machinery, and we should aim for that endgame. And this step is going in the right direction, but I am not sure if this made the function safe enough to be called repeatedly from the rebase machinery and we are ready to unleash this to the end users and tell them it is safe to use it.
