13ba7c686f fscache: make fscache_enabled() public
Make fscache_enabled() function public rather than static.
Remove unneeded fscache_is_enabled() function.
Change is_fscache_enabled() macro to call fscache_enabled().

is_fscache_enabled() now takes a pathname so that the answer
is more precise and mean "is fscache enabled for this pathname",
since fscache only stores repo-relative paths and not absolute
paths, we can avoid attempting lookups for absolute paths.

1596e89a77 dir.c: make add_excludes aware of fscache during status
Teach read_directory_recursive() and add_excludes() to
be aware of optional fscache and avoid trying to open()
and fstat() non-existant ".gitignore" files in every
directory in the worktree.

The current code in add_excludes() calls open() and then
fstat() for a ".gitignore" file in each directory present
in the worktree.  Change that when fscache is enabled to
call lstat() first and if present, call open().

This seems backwards because both lstat needs to do more
work than fstat.  But when fscache is enabled, fscache will
already know if the .gitignore file exists and can completely
avoid the IO calls.  This works because of the lstat diversion
to mingw_lstat when fscache is enabled.

This reduced status times on a 350K file enlistment of the
Windows repo on a NVMe SSD by 0.25 seconds.

3c0f191242 fscache: remember not-found directories
Teach FSCACHE to remember "not found" directories.

This is a performance optimization.

FSCACHE is a performance optimization available for Windows.  It
intercepts Posix-style lstat() calls into an in-memory directory
using FindFirst/FindNext.  It improves performance on Windows by
catching the first lstat() call in a directory, using FindFirst/
FindNext to read the list of files (and attribute data) for the
entire directory into the cache, and short-cut subsequent lstat()
calls in the same directory.  This gives a major performance
boost on Windows.

However, it does not remember "not found" directories.  When STATUS
runs and there are missing directories, the lstat() interception
fails to find the parent directory and simply return ENOENT for the
file -- it does not remember that the FindFirst on the directory
failed. Thus subsequent lstat() calls in the same directory, each
re-attempt the FindFirst.  This completely defeats any performance
gains.

This can be seen by doing a sparse-checkout on a large repo and
then doing a read-tree to reset the skip-worktree bits and then
running status.

This change reduced status times for my very large repo by 60%.

ca36daf202 fscache: load directories only once
If multiple threads access a directory that is not yet in the cache, the
directory will be loaded by each thread. Only one of the results is added
to the cache, all others are leaked. This wastes performance and memory.

On cache miss, add a future object to the cache to indicate that the
directory is currently being loaded. Subsequent threads register themselves
with the future object and wait. When the first thread has loaded the
directory, it replaces the future object with the result and notifies
waiting threads.

ff61a285c5 Win32: add a cache below mingw's lstat and dirent implementations
Checking the work tree status is quite slow on Windows, due to slow lstat
emulation (git calls lstat once for each file in the index). Windows
operating system APIs seem to be much better at scanning the status
of entire directories than checking single files.

Add an lstat implementation that uses a cache for lstat data. Cache misses
read the entire parent directory and add it to the cache. Subsequent lstat
calls for the same directory are served directly from the cache.

Also implement opendir / readdir / closedir so that they create and use
directory listings in the cache.

The cache doesn't track file system changes and doesn't plug into any
modifying file APIs, so it has to be explicitly enabled for git functions
that don't modify the working copy.

Note: in an earlier version of this patch, the cache was always active and
tracked file system changes via ReadDirectoryChangesW. However, this was
much more complex and had negative impact on the performance of modifying
git commands such as 'git checkout'.

slow. Windows operating system APIs seem to be much better at scanning the

453a83c30a Win32: Make the dirent implementation pluggable
Emulating the POSIX dirent API on Windows via FindFirstFile/FindNextFile is
pretty staightforward, however, most of the information provided in the
WIN32_FIND_DATA structure is thrown away in the process. A more
sophisticated implementation may cache this data, e.g. for later reuse in
calls to lstat.

Make the dirent implementation pluggable so that it can be switched at
runtime, e.g. based on a config option.

Define a base DIR structure with pointers to readdir/closedir that match
the opendir implementation (i.e. similar to vtable pointers in OOP).
Define readdir/closedir so that they call the function pointers in the DIR
structure. This allows to choose the opendir implementation on a
call-by-call basis.

Move the fixed sized dirent.d_name buffer to the dirent-specific DIR
structure, as d_name may be implementation specific (e.g. a caching
implementation may just set d_name to point into the cache instead of
copying the entire file name string).

84c6ee33f6 mingw: cope with the Isilon network file system
On certain network filesystems (currently encounterd with Isilon, but in
theory more network storage solutions could be causing the same issue),
when the directory in question is missing, `raceproof_create_file()`
fails with an `ERROR_INVALID_PARAMETER` instead of an
`ERROR_PATH_NOT_FOUND`.

Since it is highly unlikely that we produce such an error by mistake
(the parameters we pass are fairly benign), we can be relatively certain
that the directory is missing in this instance. So let's just translate
that error automagically.

This fixes https://github.com/git-for-windows/git/issues/1345.

target directory of said junction should be left alone (unless it is
inside the worktree).

798229341e clean: do not traverse mount points
It seems to be not exactly rare on Windows to install NTFS junction
points (the equivalent of "bind mounts" on Linux/Unix) in worktrees,
e.g. to map some development tools into a subdirectory.

In such a scenario, it is pretty horrible if `git clean -dfx` traverses
into the mapped directory and starts to "clean up".

Let's just not do that. Let's make sure before we traverse into a
directory that it is not a mount point (or junction).

e8750a2517 Help debugging with MSys2 by optionally executing bash with strace
MSys2's strace facility is very useful for debugging... With this patch,
the bash will be executed through strace if the environment variable
GIT_STRACE_COMMANDS is set, which comes in real handy when investigating
issues in the test suite.

Also support passing a path to a log file via GIT_STRACE_COMMANDS to
force Git to call strace.exe with the `-o <path>` argument, i.e. to log
into a file rather than print the log directly.

That comes in handy when the output would otherwise misinterpreted by a
calling process as part of Git's output.

Note: the values "1", "yes" or "true" are *not* specifying paths, but
tell Git to let strace.exe log directly to the console.

7e4593137b mingw: change core.fsyncObjectFiles = 1 by default
From the documentation of said setting:

	This boolean will enable fsync() when writing object files.

	This is a total waste of time and effort on a filesystem that
	orders data writes properly, but can be useful for filesystems
	that do not use journalling (traditional UNIX filesystems) or
	that only journal metadata and not file contents (OS X’s HFS+,
	or Linux ext3 with "data=writeback").

The most common file system on Windows (NTFS) does not guarantee that
order, therefore a sudden loss of power (or any other event causing an
unclean shutdown) would cause corrupt files (i.e. files filled with
NULs). Therefore we need to change the default.

Note that the documentation makes it sound as if this causes really bad
performance. In reality, writing loose objects is something that is done
only rarely, and only a handful of files at a time.

516a179006 Windows: add support for a Windows-wide configuration
Between the libgit2 and the Git for Windows project, there has been a
discussion how we could share Git configuration to avoid duplication (or
worse: skew).

Earlier, libgit2 was nice enough to just re-use Git for Windows'

	C:\Program Files (x86)\Git\etc\gitconfig

but with the upcoming Git for Windows 2.x, there would be more paths to
search, as we will have 64-bit and 32-bit versions, and the
corresponding config files will be in %PROGRAMFILES%\Git\mingw64\etc and
...\mingw32\etc, respectively.

Worse: there are portable Git for Windows versions out there which live
in totally unrelated directories, still.

Therefore we came to a consensus to use `%PROGRAMDATA%\Git\config` as the
location for shared Git settings that are of wider interest than just Git
for Windows.

Of course, the configuration in `%PROGRAMDATA%\Git\config` has the
widest reach, therefore it must take the lowest precedence, i.e. Git for
Windows can still override settings in its `etc/gitconfig` file.

50fa1b80dc msvc: work around a bug in GetEnvironmentVariable()
The return value of that function is 0 both for variables that are
unset, as well as for variables whose values are empty. To discern those
two cases, one has to call `GetLastError()`, whose return value is
`ERROR_ENVVAR_NOT_FOUND` and `ERROR_SUCCESS`, respectively.

Except that it is not actually set to `ERROR_SUCCESS` in the latter
case, apparently, but the last error value seems to be simply unchanged.

To work around this, let's just re-set the last error value just before
inspecting the environment variable.

This fixes a problem that triggers failures in t3301-notes.sh (where we
try to override config settings by passing empty values for certain
environment variables).

This problem is hidden in the MINGW build by the fact that older
MSVC runtimes (such as the one used by MINGW builds) have a `calloc()`
that re-sets the last error value in case of success, while newer
runtimes set the error value only if `NULL` is returned by that
function.

c79c47a162 msvc: ignore some libraries when linking
To build with MSVC, we "translate" GCC options to MSVC options, and part
of those options refer to the libraries to link into the final
executable. Currently, this part looks somewhat like this on Windows:

	-lcurl -lnghttp2 -lidn2 -lssl -lcrypto -lssl -lcrypto -lgdi32
	-lcrypt32 -lwldap32 -lz -lws2_32 -lexpat

Some of those are direct dependencies (such as curl and ssl) and others
are indirect (nghttp2 and idn2, for example, are dependencies of curl,
but need to be linked in for reasons).

We already handle the direct dependencies, e.g. `-liconv` is already
handled as adding `libiconv.lib` to the list of libraries to link
against.

Let's just ignore the remaining `-l*` options so that MSVC does not have
to warn us that it ignored e.g. the `/lnghttp2` option. We do that by
extending the clause that already "eats" the `-R*` options to also eat
the `-l*` options.

7b7b865aa4 built-in add -p: handle Escape sequences more efficiently
When `interactive.singlekey = true`, we react immediately to keystrokes,
even to Escape sequences (e.g. when pressing a cursor key).

The problem with Escape sequences is that we do not really know when
they are done, and as a heuristic we poll standard input for half a
second to make sure that we got all of it.

While waiting half a second is not asking for a whole lot, it can become
quite annoying over time, therefore with this patch, we read the
terminal capabilities (if available) and extract known Escape sequences
from there, then stop polling immediately when we detected that the user
pressed a key that generated such a known sequence.

This recapitulates the remaining part of b5cc003253 (add -i: ignore
terminal escape sequences, 2011-05-17).

Note: We do *not* query the terminal capabilities directly. That would
either require a lot of platform-specific code, or it would require
linking to a library such as ncurses.

Linking to a library in the built-ins is something we try very hard to
avoid (we even kicked the libcurl dependency to a non-built-in remote
helper, just to shave off a tiny fraction of a second from Git's startup
time). And the platform-specific code would be a maintenance nightmare.

Even worse: in Git for Windows' case, we would need to query MSYS2
pseudo terminals, which `git.exe` simply cannot do (because it is
intentionally *not* an MSYS2 program).

To address this, we simply spawn `infocmp -L -1` and parse its output
(which works even in Git for Windows, because that helper is included in
the end-user facing installations).

This is done only once, as in the Perl version, but it is done only when
the first Escape sequence is encountered, not upon startup of `git add
-i`; This saves on startup time, yet makes reacting to the first Escape
sequence slightly more sluggish. But it allows us to keep the
terminal-related code encapsulated in the `compat/terminal.c` file.

90fd128e22 built-in add -p: handle Escape sequences in interactive.singlekey mode
This recapitulates part of b5cc003253 (add -i: ignore terminal escape
sequences, 2011-05-17):

    add -i: ignore terminal escape sequences

    On the author's terminal, the up-arrow input sequence is ^[[A, and
    thus fat-fingering an up-arrow into 'git checkout -p' is quite
    dangerous: git-add--interactive.perl will ignore the ^[ and [
    characters and happily treat A as "discard everything".

    As a band-aid fix, use Term::Cap to get all terminal capabilities.
    Then use the heuristic that any capability value that starts with ^[
    (i.e., \e in perl) must be a key input sequence.  Finally, given an
    input that starts with ^[, read more characters until we have read a
    full escape sequence, then return that to the caller.  We use a
    timeout of 0.5 seconds on the subsequent reads to avoid getting stuck
    if the user actually input a lone ^[.

    Since none of the currently recognized keys start with ^[, the net
    result is that the sequence as a whole will be ignored and the help
    displayed.

Note that we leave part for later which uses "Term::Cap to get all
terminal capabilities", for several reasons:

1. it is actually not really necessary, as the timeout of 0.5 seconds
   should be plenty sufficient to catch Escape sequences,

2. it is cleaner to keep the change to special-case Escape sequences
   separate from the change that reads all terminal capabilities to
   speed things up, and

3. in practice, relying on the terminal capabilities is a bit overrated,
   as the information could be incomplete, or plain wrong. For example,
   in this developer's tmux sessions, the terminal capabilities claim
   that the "cursor up" sequence is ^[M, but the actual sequence
   produced by the "cursor up" key is ^[[A.

b9147a5dde terminal: add a new function to read a single keystroke
Typically, input on the command-line is line-based. It is actually not
really easy to get single characters (or better put: keystrokes).

We provide two implementations here:

- One that handles `/dev/tty` based systems as well as native Windows.
  The former uses the `tcsetattr()` function to put the terminal into
  "raw mode", which allows us to read individual keystrokes, one by one.
  The latter uses `stty.exe` to do the same, falling back to direct
  Win32 Console access.

  Thanks to the refactoring leading up to this commit, this is a single
  function, with the platform-specific details hidden away in
  conditionally-compiled code blocks.

- A fall-back which simply punts and reads back an entire line.

Note that the function writes the keystroke into an `strbuf` rather than
a `char`, in preparation for reading Escape sequences (e.g. when the
user hit an arrow key). This is also required for UTF-8 sequences in
case the keystroke corresponds to a non-ASCII letter.

375dfd207d terminal: accommodate Git for Windows' default terminal
Git for Windows' Git Bash runs in MinTTY by default, which does not have
a Win32 Console instance, but uses MSYS2 pseudo terminals instead.

This is a problem, as Git for Windows does not want to use the MSYS2
emulation layer for Git itself, and therefore has no direct way to
interact with that pseudo terminal.

As a workaround, use the `stty` utility (which is included in Git for
Windows, and which *is* an MSYS2 program, so it knows how to deal with
the pseudo terminal).

Note: If Git runs in a regular CMD or PowerShell window, there *is* a
regular Win32 Console to work with. This is not a problem for the MSYS2
`stty`: it copes with this scenario just fine.

Also note that we introduce support for more bits than would be
necessary for a mere `disable_echo()` here, in preparation for the
upcoming `enable_non_canonical()` function.

09b165fc1f mingw: allow absolute paths without drive prefix
When specifying an absolute path without a drive prefix, we convert that
path internally. Let's make sure that we handle that case properly, too
;-)

This fixes the command

	git clone https://github.com/git-for-windows/git \G4W

1ba7a9f698 Make non-.exe externals work again
7ebac8cb94 made launching of .exe
externals work when installed in Unicode paths. But it broke launching
of non-.exe externals, no matter where they were installed. We now
correctly maintain the UTF-8 and UTF-16 paths in tandem in lookup_prog.

This fixes t5526, among others.

8ca1644dee Fix launching of externals from Unicode paths
If Git were installed in a path containing non-ASCII characters,
commands such as git-am and git-submodule, which are implemented as
externals, would fail to launch with the following error:

> fatal: 'am' appears to be a git command, but we were not
> able to execute it. Maybe git-am is broken?

This was due to lookup_prog not being Unicode-aware. It was somehow
missed in 2ee5a1a14a.

Note that the only problem in this function was calling
GetFileAttributes instead of GetFileAttributesW. The calls to access()
were fine because access() is a macro which resolves to mingw_access,
which already handles Unicode correctly. But I changed lookup_prog to
use _waccess directly so that we only convert the path to UTF-16 once.

Support building Git with Visual Studio

The bits about .git/branches/* have been dropped from the series.
We may want to drop the support for it, but until that happens, the
tests should rely on the existence of the support to pass.

  bin-wrappers: append `.exe` to target paths if necessary
  .gitignore: ignore Visual Studio's temporary/generated files
  .gitignore: touch up the entries regarding Visual Studio

976aaedca0 msvc: add a Makefile target to pre-generate the Visual Studio solution
The entire idea of generating the VS solution makes only sense if we
generate it via Continuous Integration; otherwise potential users would
still have to download the entire Git for Windows SDK.

If we pre-generate the Visual Studio solution, Git can be built entirely
within Visual Studio, and the test scripts can be run in a regular Git
for Windows (e.g. the Portable Git flavor, which does not include a full
GCC toolchain and therefore weighs only about a tenth of Git for
Windows' SDK).

So let's just add a target in the Makefile that can be used to generate
said solution; The generated files will then be committed so that they
can be pushed to a branch ready to check out by Visual Studio users.

To make things even more useful, we also generate and commit other files
that are required to run the test suite, such as templates and
bin-wrappers: with this, developers can run the test suite in a regular
Git Bash after building the solution in Visual Studio.

Note: for this build target, we do not actually need to initialize the
`vcpkg` system, so we don't.

eb7c786314 mingw: support spawning programs containing spaces in their names
On some older Windows versions (e.g. Windows 7), the CreateProcessW()
function does not really support spaces in its first argument,
lpApplicationName. But it supports passing NULL as lpApplicationName,
which makes it figure out the application from the (possibly quoted)
first argument of lpCommandLine.

Let's use that trick (if we are certain that the first argument matches
the executable's path) to support launching programs whose path contains
spaces.

We will abuse the test-fake-ssh.exe helper to verify that this works and
does not regress.

This fixes https://github.com/git-for-windows/git/issues/692

e12a955660 mingw: initialize HOME on startup
HOME initialization was historically duplicated in many different places,
including /etc/profile, launch scripts such as git-bash.vbs and gitk.cmd,
and (although slightly broken) in the git-wrapper.

Even unrelated projects such as GitExtensions and TortoiseGit need to
implement the same logic to be able to call git directly.

Initialize HOME in git's own startup code so that we can eventually retire
all the duplicate initialization code.

In 39a98e9b68 (mingw: get pw_name in UTF-8 format, 2019-06-27), this
developer missed the fact that the `GetUserNameW()` function takes the
number of characters as `len` parameter, not the number of bytes.
