Microsoft introduced a new "Universal C Runtime Library" (UCRT) with
Visual Studio 2015. The UCRT comes with a new strftime() implementation that
supports more date formats. We link git against the older "Microsoft Visual C
Runtime Library" (MSVCRT), so to use the UCRT strftime() we need to load it from
ucrtbase.dll using DECLARE_PROC_ADDR()/INIT_PROC_ADDR().
Most supported Windows systems should have recieved the UCRT via Windows update,
but in some cases only MSVCRT might be available. In that case we fall back to
using that implementation.

This topic branch re-adds the deprecated --stdin/-z options to `git
reset`. Those patches were overridden by a different set of options in
the upstream Git project before we could propose `--stdin`.
We offered this in MinGit to applications that wanted a safer way to
pass lots of pathspecs to Git, and these applications will need to be
adjusted.
Instead of `--stdin`, `--pathspec-from-file=-` should be used, and
instead of `-z`, `--pathspec-file-nul`.

When updating the skip-worktree bits in the index to align with new
values in a sparse-checkout file, Git scans the entire working
directory with lstat() calls. In a sparse-checkout, many of these
lstat() calls are for paths that do not exist.
Enable the fscache feature during this scan.
In a local test of a repo with ~2.2 million paths, updating the index
with `git read-tree -m -u HEAD` with a sparse-checkout file containing
only `/.gitattributes` improved from 2-3 minutes to 15-20 seconds.
More work could be done to stop running lstat() calls when recursing
into directories that are known to not exist.
This brings substantial wins in performance because the FSCache is now
per-thread, being merged to the primary thread only at the end, so we do
not have to lock (except while merging).

These are Git for Windows' Git GUI and gitk patches. We will have to
decide at some point what to do about them, but that's a little lower
priority (as Git GUI seems to be unmaintained for the time being, and
the gitk maintainer keeps a very low profile on the Git mailing list,
too).

This is the branch thicket of patches in Git for Windows that are
considered ready for upstream. To keep them in a ready-to-submit shape,
they are kept as close to the beginning of the branch thicket as
possible.
Previously, we did not install any handler for Ctrl+C, but now we really
want to because the MSYS2 runtime learned the trick to call the
ConsoleCtrlHandler when Ctrl+C was pressed.
With this, hitting Ctrl+C while `git log` is running will only terminate
the Git process, but not the pager. This finally matches the behavior on
Linux and on macOS.

The TerminateProcess() function does not actually leave the child
processes any chance to perform any cleanup operations. This is bad
insofar as Git itself expects its signal handlers to run.
A symptom is e.g. a left-behind .lock file that would not be left behind
if the same operation was run, say, on Linux.
To remedy this situation, we use an obscure trick: we inject a thread
into the process that needs to be killed and to let that thread run the
ExitProcess() function with the desired exit status. Thanks J Wyman for
describing this trick.
The advantage is that the ExitProcess() function lets the atexit
handlers run. While this is still different from what Git expects (i.e.
running a signal handler), in practice Git sets up signal handlers and
atexit handlers that call the same code to clean up after itself.
In case that the gentle method to terminate the process failed, we still
fall back to calling TerminateProcess(), but in that case we now also
make sure that processes spawned by the spawned process are terminated;
TerminateProcess() does not give the spawned process a chance to do so
itself.
Please note that this change only affects how Git for Windows tries to
terminate processes spawned by Git's own executables. Third-party
software that *calls* Git and wants to terminate it *still* need to make
sure to imitate this gentle method, otherwise this patch will not have
any effect.

The Makefile target `install-mingit-test-artifacts` simply copies stuff
and things directly into a MinGit directory, including an init.bat
script to set everything up so that the tests can be run in a cmd
window.
Sadly, Git's test suite still relies on a Perl interpreter even if
compiled with NO_PERL=YesPlease. We punt for now, installing a small
script into /usr/bin/perl that hands off to an existing Perl of a Git
for Windows SDK.

On Windows, the current working directory is pretty much guaranteed to
contain a colon. If we feed that path to CVS, it mistakes it for a
separator between host and port, though.
This has not been a problem so far because Git for Windows uses MSYS2's
Bash using a POSIX emulation layer that also pretends that the current
directory is a Unix path (at least as long as we're in a shell script).
However, that is rather limiting, as Git for Windows also explores other
ports of other Unix shells. One of those is BusyBox-w32's ash, which is
a native port (i.e. *not* using any POSIX emulation layer, and certainly
not emulating Unix paths).
So let's just detect if there is a colon in $PWD and punt in that case.

Git for Windows uses MSYS2's Bash to run the test suite, which comes
with benefits but also at a heavy price: on the plus side, MSYS2's
POSIX emulation layer allows us to continue pretending that we are on a
Unix system, e.g. use Unix paths instead of Windows ones, yet this is
bought at a rather noticeable performance penalty.
There *are* some more native ports of Unix shells out there, though,
most notably BusyBox-w32's ash. These native ports do not use any POSIX
emulation layer (or at most a *very* thin one, choosing to avoid
features such as fork() that are expensive to emulate on Windows), and
they use native Windows paths (usually with forward slashes instead of
backslashes, which is perfectly legal in almost all use cases).
And here comes the problem: with a $PWD looking like, say,
C:/git-sdk-64/usr/src/git/t/trash directory.t5813-proto-disable-ssh
Git's test scripts get quite a bit confused, as their assumptions have
been shattered. Not only does this path contain a colon (oh no!), it
also does not start with a slash.
This is a problem e.g. when constructing a URL as t5813 does it:
ssh://remote$PWD. Not only is it impossible to separate the "host" from
the path with a $PWD as above, even prefixing $PWD by a slash won't
work, as /C:/git-sdk-64/... is not a valid path.
As a workaround, detect when $PWD does not start with a slash on
Windows, and simply strip the drive prefix, using an obscure feature of
Windows paths: if an absolute Windows path starts with a slash, it is
implicitly prefixed by the drive prefix of the current directory. As we
are talking about the current directory here, anyway, that strategy
works.

When t5605 tries to verify that files are hardlinked (or that they are
not), it uses the `-links` option of the `find` utility.
BusyBox' implementation does not support that option, and BusyBox-w32's
lstat() does not even report the number of hard links correctly (for
performance reasons).
So let's just switch to a different method that actually works on
Windows.

While it may seem super convenient to some old Unix hands to simpy
require Perl to be available when running the test suite, this is a
major hassle on Windows, where we want to verify that Perl is not,
actually, required in a NO_PERL build.
As a super ugly workaround, we "install" a script into /usr/bin/perl
reading like this:
#!/bin/sh
# We'd much rather avoid requiring Perl altogether when testing
# an installed Git. Oh well, that's why we cannot have nice
# things.
exec c:/git-sdk-64/usr/bin/perl.exe "$@"
The problem with that is that BusyBox assumes that the #! line in a
script refers to an executable, not to a script. So when it encounters
the line #!/usr/bin/perl in t5532's proxy-get-cmd, it barfs.
Let's help this situation by simply executing the Perl script with the
"interpreter" specified explicitly.

BusyBox' unzip is working pretty well. But Git's tests want to abuse it
to not only extract files, but to convert their line endings on the fly,
too. BusyBox' unzip does not support that, and it would appear that
it would require rather intrusive changes.
So let's just work around this by skipping the test case that uses
`unzip -a` and the subsequent test cases expecting `unzip -a`'s output.

At some stage, t5003-archive-zip wants to add a file that is not ASCII.
To that end, it uses /bin/sh. But that file may actually not exist (it

we already have perfectly fine binary files intended for use solely by
the tests. So let's use one of them instead.

Everybody and their dogs, cats and other pets settled on using unified
diffs. It is a really quaint holdover from a long-gone era that GNU diff
outputs "normal" diff by default.
Yet, t4124 relied on that mode.
This mode is so out of fashion in the meantime, though, that e.g.
BusyBox' diff decided not even to bother to support it. It only supports
unified diffs.
So let's just switch away from "normal" diffs and use unified diffs, as
we really are only interested in the `+` lines.

Since c6b0831c9c (docs: warn about possible '=' in clean/smudge filter
process values, 2016-12-03), t0021 writes out a file with quotes in its
name, and MSYS2's path conversion heuristics mistakes that to mean that
we are not talking about a path here.
Therefore, we need to use Windows paths, as the test-helper is a Win32
program that would otherwise have no idea where to look for the file.

BusyBox' ash) whose pwd does *not* understand the -W option.

Traditionally, Git for Windows' SDK uses Bash as its default shell.
However, other Unix shells are available, too. Most notably, the Win32
port of BusyBox comes with `ash` whose `pwd` command already prints
Windows paths as Git for Windows wants them, while there is not even a
`builtin` command.
Therefore, let's be careful not to override `pwd` unless we know that
the `builtin` command is available.

BusyBox-w32 is a true Win32 application, i.e. it does not come with a
POSIX emulation layer.
That also means that it does *not* use the Unix convention of separating
the entries in the PATH variable using colons, but semicolons.
However, there are also BusyBox ports to Windows which use a POSIX
emulation layer such as Cygwin's or MSYS2's runtime, i.e. using colons
as PATH separators.
As a tell-tale, let's use the presence of semicolons in the PATH
variable: on Unix, it is highly unlikely that it contains semicolons,
and on Windows (without POSIX emulation), it is virtually guaranteed, as
everybody should have both $SYSTEMROOT and $SYSTEMROOT/system32 in their
PATH.
