ec6eacc3a4 checkout.c: enable fscache for checkout again
This is retry of #1419.

I added flush_fscache macro to flush cached stats after disk writing
with tests for regression reported in #1438 and #1442.

git checkout checks each file path in sorted order, so cache flushing does not
make performance worse unless we have large number of modified files in
a directory containing many files.

Using chromium repository, I tested `git checkout .` performance when I
delete 10 files in different directories.
With this patch:
TotalSeconds: 4.307272
TotalSeconds: 4.4863595
TotalSeconds: 4.2975562
Avg: 4.36372923333333

4fd38b69c6 hash-object: add a >4GB/LLP64 test case using filtered input
To verify that the `clean` side of the `clean`/`smudge` filter code is
correct with regards to LLP64 (read: to ensure that `size_t` is used
instead of `unsigned long`), here is a test case using a trivial filter,
specifically _not_ writing anything to the object store to limit the
scope of the test case.

As in previous commits, the `big` file from previous test cases is

ca007c384c hash-object --stdin: verify that it works with >4GB/LLP64
Just like the `hash-object --literally` code path, the `--stdin` code
path also needs to use `size_t` instead of `unsigned long` to represent
memory sizes, otherwise it would cause problems on platforms using the
LLP64 data model (such as Windows).

To limit the scope of the test case, the object is explicitly not
written to the object store, nor are any filters applied.

The `big` file from the previous test case is reused to save setup time;
To avoid relying on that side effect, it is generated if it does not
exist (e.g. when running via `sh t1007-*.sh --long --run=1,41`).

d34ccdb51f hash algorithms: use size_t for section lengths
Continue walking the code path for the >4GB `hash-object --literally`
test to the hash algorithm step for LLP64 systems.

This patch lets the SHA1DC code use `size_t`, making it compatible with
LLP64 data models (as used e.g. by Windows).

The interested reader of this patch will note that we adjust the
signature of the `git_SHA1DCUpdate()` function without updating _any_
call site. This certainly puzzled at least one reviewer already, so here
is an explanation:

This function is never called directly, but always via the macro
`platform_SHA1_Update`, which is usually called via the macro
`git_SHA1_Update`. However, we never call `git_SHA1_Update()` directly
in `struct git_hash_algo`. Instead, we call `git_hash_sha1_update()`,
which is defined thusly:

    static void git_hash_sha1_update(git_hash_ctx *ctx,
                                     const void *data, size_t len)
    {
        git_SHA1_Update(&ctx->sha1, data, len);
    }

i.e. it contains an implicit downcast from `size_t` to `unsigned long`
(before this here patch). With this patch, there is no downcast anymore.

With this patch, finally, the t1007-hash-object.sh "files over 4GB hash
literally" test case is fixed.

4aed3ec08b fsmonitor: never set CE_FSMONITOR_VALID on submodules
Never set CE_FSMONITOR_VALID on the cache-entry of submodule
directories.

During a client command like 'git status', we may need to recurse
into each submodule to compute a status summary for the submodule.
Since the purpose of the ce_flag is to let Git avoid scanning a
cache-entry, setting the flag causes the recursive call to be
avoided and we report incorrect (no status) for the submodule.

We created an OS watch on the root directory of our working
directory and we receive events for everything in the cone
under it.  When submodules are present inside our working
directory, we receive events for both our repo (the super) and
any subs within it.  Since our index doesn't have any information
for items within the submodules, we can't use those events.

We could try to truncate the paths of those events back to the
submodule boundary and mark the GITLINK as dirty, but that
feels expensive since we would have to prefix compare every FS
event that we receive against a list of submodule roots.  And
it still wouldn't be sufficient to correctly report status on
the submodule, since we don't have any space in the cache-entry
to cache the submodule's status (the 'SCMU' bits in porcelain
V2 speak).  That is, the CE_FSMONITOR_VALID bit just says that
we don't need to scan/inspect it because we already know the
answer -- it doesn't say that the item is clean -- and we
don't have space in the cache-entry to store those answers.
So we should always do the recursive scan.

Therefore, we should never set the flag on GITLINK cache-entries.

4a07f76473 hash-object: demonstrate a >4GB/LLP64 problem
On LLP64 systems, such as Windows, the size of `long`, `int`, etc. is
only 32 bits (for backward compatibility). Git's use of `unsigned long`
for file memory sizes in many places, rather than size_t, limits the
handling of large files on LLP64 systems (commonly given as `>4GB`).

Provide a minimum test for handling a >4GB file. The `hash-object`
command, with the  `--literally` and without `-w` option avoids
writing the object, either loose or packed. This avoids the code paths
hitting the `bigFileThreshold` config test code, the zlib code, and the
pack code.

Subsequent patches will walk the test's call chain, converting types to
`size_t` (which is larger in LLP64 data models) where appropriate.

VFS for Git is a downstream fork of Git.  It contains its own custom

it because we may get incomplete results.

We do not know anything about how VFS for Git works, but we do
know that VFS for Git working directories contain a well-defined
config setting.  If it is set, mark the working directory as
incompatible.

d3072c52a3 fsm-listen-win32: handle shortnames
Teach FSMonitor daemon on Windows to recognize shortname paths as
aliases of normal longname paths.  FSMonitor clients, such as `git
status`, should receive the longname spelling of changed files (when
possible).

Sometimes we receive FS events using the shortname, such as when a CMD
shell runs "RENAME GIT~1 FOO" or "RMDIR GIT~1".  The FS notification
arrives using whatever combination of long and shortnames were used by
the other process.  (Shortnames do seem to be case normalized,
however.)

Use Windows GetLongPathNameW() to try to map the pathname spelling in
the notification event into the normalized longname spelling.  (This
can fail if the file/directory is deleted, moved, or renamed, because
we are asking the FS for the mapping in response to the event and
after it has already happened, but we try.)

Special case the shortname spelling of ".git" to avoid under-reporting
these events.

afd40a73da mingw: allow git.exe to be used instead of the "Git wrapper"
Git for Windows wants to add `git.exe` to the users' `PATH`, without
cluttering the latter with unnecessary executables such as `wish.exe`.
To that end, it invented the concept of its "Git wrapper", i.e. a tiny
executable located in `C:\Program Files\Git\cmd\git.exe` (originally a
CMD script) whose sole purpose is to set up a couple of environment
variables and then spawn the _actual_ `git.exe` (which nowadays lives in
`C:\Program Files\Git\mingw64\bin\git.exe` for 64-bit, and the obvious
equivalent for 32-bit installations).

Currently, the following environment variables are set unless already
initialized:

- `MSYSTEM`, to make sure that the MSYS2 Bash and the MSYS2 Perl
  interpreter behave as expected, and

- `PLINK_PROTOCOL`, to force PuTTY's `plink.exe` to use the SSH
  protocol instead of Telnet,

- `PATH`, to make sure that the `bin` folder in the user's home
  directory, as well as the `/mingw64/bin` and the `/usr/bin`
  directories are included. The trick here is that the `/mingw64/bin/`
  and `/usr/bin/` directories are relative to the top-level installation
  directory of Git for Windows (which the included Bash interprets as
  `/`, i.e. as the MSYS pseudo root directory).

Using the absence of `MSYSTEM` as a tell-tale, we can detect in
`git.exe` whether these environment variables have been initialized
properly. Therefore we can call `C:\Program Files\Git\mingw64\bin\git`
in-place after this change, without having to call Git through the Git
wrapper.

Obviously, above-mentioned directories must be _prepended_ to the `PATH`
variable, otherwise we risk picking up executables from unrelated Git
installations. We do that by constructing the new `PATH` value from
scratch, appending `$HOME/bin` (if `HOME` is set), then the MSYS2 system
directories, and then appending the original `PATH`.

Side note: this modification of the `PATH` variable is independent of
the modification necessary to reach the executables and scripts in
`/mingw64/libexec/git-core/`, i.e. the `GIT_EXEC_PATH`. That
modification is still performed by Git, elsewhere, long after making the
changes described above.

While we _still_ cannot simply hard-link `mingw64\bin\git.exe` to `cmd`
(because the former depends on a couple of `.dll` files that are only in
`mingw64\bin`, i.e. calling `...\cmd\git.exe` would fail to load due to
missing dependencies), at least we can now avoid that extra process of
running the Git wrapper (which then has to wait for the spawned
`git.exe` to finish) by calling `...\mingw64\bin\git.exe` directly, via
its absolute path.

Testing this is in Git's test suite tricky: we set up a "new" MSYS
pseudo-root and copy the `git.exe` file into the appropriate location,
then verify that `MSYSTEM` is set properly, and also that the `PATH` is
modified so that scripts can be found in `$HOME/bin`, `/mingw64/bin/`
and `/usr/bin/`.

67306218c1 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).

34450e678a mingw: demonstrate a problem with certain absolute paths
On Windows, there are several categories of absolute paths. One such
category starts with a backslash and is implicitly relative to the
drive associated with the current working directory. Example:

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

should clone into C:\G4W.

There is currently a problem with that, in that mingw_mktemp() does not
expect the _wmktemp() function to prefix the absolute path with the
drive prefix, and as a consequence, the resulting path does not fit into
the originally-passed string buffer. The symptom is a "Result too large"
error.

Reported by Juan Carlos Arevalo Baeza.

23e28385c4 mingw: demonstrate a git add issue with NTFS junctions
NTFS junctions are somewhat similar in spirit to Unix bind mounts: they
point to a different directory and are resolved by the filesystem
driver. As such, they appear to `lstat()` as if they are directories,
not as if they are symbolic links.

_Any_ user can create junctions, while symbolic links can only be
created by non-administrators in Developer Mode on Windows 10. Hence
NTFS junctions are much more common "in the wild" than NTFS symbolic
links.

It was reported in https://github.com/git-for-windows/git/issues/2481
that adding files via an absolute path that traverses an NTFS junction:
since 1e64d18 (mingw: do resolve symlinks in `getcwd()`), we resolve not
only symbolic links but also NTFS junctions when determining the
absolute path of the current directory. The same is not true for `git
add <file>`, where symbolic links are resolved in `<file>`, but not NTFS
junctions.

e847ebc03d t9350: point out that refs are not updated correctly
This happens only when the corresponding commits are not exported in
the current fast-export run. This can happen either when the relevant
commit is already marked, or when the commit is explicitly marked
as UNINTERESTING with a negative ref by another argument.

This breaks fast-export basec remote helpers.

This reverts commit 2a0cafd464,
as it expects a working "a ref deletion must produce a single
transaction, not one for loose and another for packed" topic,
which we do not have.
