Teach `test-tool.exe chmtime` to ignore errors when setting the mtime
on a directory on Windows.
NEEDSWORK: The Windows version of `utime()` (aka `mingw_utime()`) does
not properly handle directories because it uses `_wopen()`. It should
be converted to using `CreateFileW()` and backup semantics at a minimum.
Since I'm already in the middle of a large patch series, I did not want
to destabilize other callers of `utime()` right now. The problem has
only been observed in the t/perf/p7519 test when the test repo contains
an empty directory on disk.

Do not copy any of the various fsmonitor--daemon files from the .git
directory of the (GIT_PREF_REPO or GIT_PERF_LARGE_REPO) source repo
into the test's trash directory.
When perf tests start, they copy the contents of the source repo into
the test's trash directory. If fsmonitor is running in the source repo,
there may be control files, such as the IPC socket and/or fsmonitor
cookie files. These should not be copied into the test repo.
Unix domain sockets cannot be copied in the manner used by the test
setup, so if present, the test setup fails.
Cookie files are harmless, but we should avoid them.
The builtin fsmonitor keeps all such control files/sockets in
.git/fsmonitor--daemon*, so it is simple to exclude them.

Add the "feature: fsmonitor--daemon" message to the output of
`git version --build-options`.
The builtin FSMonitor is only available on certain platforms and
even then only when certain Makefile flags are enabled, so print
a message in the verbose version output when it is available.
This can be used by test scripts for prereq testing. Granted, tests
could just try `git fsmonitor--daemon status` and look for a 128 exit
code or grep for a "not supported" message on stderr, but this is
rather obscure.
The main advantage is that the feature message will automatically
appear in bug reports and other support requests.

Include MacOS system declarations to allow us to use FSEvent and
CoreFoundation APIs. We need GCC and clang versions because of
compiler and header file conflicts.
While it is quite possible to #include Apple's CoreServices.h when
compiling C source code with clang, trying to build it with GCC
currently fails with this error:

| ^~~~~
The underlying reason is that GCC (rightfully) objects that an `enum`
value such as `kAuthorizationExternalFormLength` is not a constant
(because it is not, the preprocessor has no knowledge of it, only the
actual C compiler does) and can therefore not be used to define the size
of a C array.
This is a known problem and tracked in GCC's bug tracker:
https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=93082
In the meantime, let's not block things and go the slightly ugly route
of declaring/defining the FSEvents constants, data structures and
functions that we need, so that we can avoid above-mentioned issue.
Let's do this _only_ for GCC, though, so that the CI/PR builds (which
build both with clang and with GCC) can guarantee that we _are_ using
the correct data types.

Teach fsmonitor--daemon to build a list of changed paths and associate
them with a token-id. This will be used by the platform-specific
backends to accumulate changed paths in response to filesystem events.
The platform-specific file system listener thread receives file system
events containing one or more changed pathnames (with whatever bucketing
or grouping that is convenient for the file system). These paths are
accumulated (without locking) by the file system layer into a `fsmonitor_batch`.
When the file system layer has drained the kernel event queue, it will
"publish" them to our token queue and make them visible to concurrent
client worker threads. The token layer is free to combine and/or de-dup
paths within these batches for efficient presentation to clients.

Teach fsmonitor--daemon to classify relative and absolute
pathnames and decide how they should be handled. This will
be used by the platform-specific backend to respond to each
filesystem event.
When we register for filesystem notifications on a directory,
we get events for everything (recursively) in the directory.
We want to report to clients changes to tracked and untracked
paths within the working directory. We do not want to report
changes within the .git directory, for example.
This classification will be used in a later commit by the
different backends to classify paths as events are received.

Implement 'git fsmonitor--daemon start' command. This command starts
an instance of 'git fsmonitor--daemon run' in the background using
the new 'start_bg_command()' function.
We avoid the fork-and-call technique on Unix systems in favor of a
fork-and-exec technique. This gives us more uniform Trace2 child-*
events. It also makes our usage more consistent with Windows usage.
On Windows, teach 'git fsmonitor--daemon run' to optionally call
'FreeConsole()' to release handles to the inherited Win32 console
(despite being passed invalid handles for stdin/out/err). Without
this, command prompts and powershell terminal windows could hang
in "exit" until the last background child process exited or released
their Win32 console handle. (This was not seen with git-bash shells
because they don't have a Win32 console attached to them.)

as `watchman`.

Move FSMonitor config settings to a new `struct fsmonitor_settings`
structure. Add a lazily-loaded pointer to `struct repo_settings`.
Create `fsm_settings__get_*()` getters to lazily look up fsmonitor-
related config settings.
Get rid of the `core_fsmonitor` global variable, and add support for
the new `core.useBuiltinFSMonitor` config setting. Move config code
to lookup the existing `core.fsmonitor` value to `fsmonitor-settings.[ch]`.
The `core_fsmonitor` global variable was used to store the pathname to
the FSMonitor hook and it was used as a boolean to see if FSMonitor
was enabled. This dual usage will lead to confusion when we add
support for a builtin FSMonitor based on IPC, since the builtin
FSMonitor doesn't need the hook pathname.
Replace the boolean usage with an `enum fsmonitor_mode` to represent
the state of FSMonitor. And only set the pathname when in HOOK mode.

We added an unrelated sanity checking that leads to a BUG() while
plugging a leak, which triggered in a repository with symrefs in
the local branch namespace that point at a ref outside. Partially
revert the change to avoid triggering the BUG().
* ab/checkout-branch-info-leakfix:
checkout: avoid BUG() when hitting a broken repository
When 9081a421 (checkout: fix "branch info" memory leaks, 2021-11-16)
cleaned up existing memory leaks, we added an unrelated sanity check
to ensure that a local branch is truly local and not a symref to
elsewhere that dies with BUG() otherwise. This was misguided in two
ways. First of all, such a tightening did not belong to a leak-fix
patch. And the condition it detected was *not* a bug in our program
but a problem in user data, where warning() or die() would have been
more appropriate.
As the condition is not fatal (the result of computing the local
branch name in the code that is involved in the faulty check is only
used as a textual label for the commit), let's revert the code to
the original state, i.e. strip "refs/heads/" to compute the local
branch name if possible, and otherwise leave it NULL. The consumer
of the information in merge_working_tree() is prepared to see NULL
in there and act accordingly.

Document that the accepted variants of the --track option are --track,
--track=direct, and --track=inherit. The equal sign in the latter two
cannot be replaced with whitespace; in general optional arguments need
to be attached firmly to their option.
Put "direct" consistently before "inherit", if only for the reasons
that the former is the default, explained first in the documentation,
and comes before the latter alphabetically.
Mention both modes in the short help so that readers don't have to look
them up in the full documentation. They are literal strings and thus
untranslatable. PARSE_OPT_LITERAL_ARGHELP is inferred due to the pipe
and parenthesis characters, so we don't have to provide that flag
explicitly.
Mention that -t has the same effect as --track and --track=direct.
There is no way to specify inherit mode using the short option, because
short options generally don't accept optional arguments.

This topic branch re-adds the deprecated --stdin/-z options to `git

the upstream Git project before we could propose `--stdin`.
We offered this in MinGit to applications that wanted a safer way to

adjusted.
Instead of `--stdin`, `--pathspec-from-file=-` should be used, and
instead of `-z`, `--pathspec-file-nul`.
