54fc836712 tests: replace mingw_test_cmp with a helper in C
This helper is slightly more performant than the script with MSYS2's
Bash. And a lot more readable.

To accommodate t1050, which wants to compare files weighing in with 3MB
(falling outside of t1050's malloc limit of 1.5MB), we simply lift the
allocation limit by setting the environment variable GIT_ALLOC_LIMIT to
zero when calling the helper.

3c893a823a test-lib: avoid unnecessary Perl invocation
It is a bit strange, and even undesirable, to require Perl just to run
the test suite even when NO_PERL was set.

This patch does not fix this problem by any stretch of imagination.
However, it fixes *the* Perl invocation that *every single* test script
has to run.

While at it, it makes the source code also more grep'able, as the code
that unsets some, but not all, GIT_* environment variables just became a
*lot* more explicit. And all that while still reducing the total number
of lines.

c5293bf1eb mingw: when path_lookup() failed, try BusyBox
BusyBox comes with a ton of applets ("applet" being the identical
concept to Git's "builtins"). And similar to Git's builtins, the applets
can be called via `busybox <command>`, or the BusyBox executable can be
copied/hard-linked to the command name.

The similarities do not end here. Just as with Git's builtins, it is
problematic that BusyBox' hard-linked applets cannot easily be put into
a .zip file: .zip archives have no concept of hard-links and therefore
would store identical copies (and also extract identical copies,
"inflating" the archive unnecessarily).

To counteract that issue, MinGit already ships without hard-linked
copies of the builtins, and the plan is to do the same with BusyBox'
applets: simply ship busybox.exe as single executable, without
hard-linked applets.

To accommodate that, Git is being taught by this commit a very special
trick, exploiting the fact that it is possible to call an executable
with a command-line whose argv[0] is different from the executable's
name: when `sh` is to be spawned, and no `sh` is found in the PATH, but
busybox.exe is, use that executable (with unchanged argv).

Likewise, if any executable to be spawned is not on the PATH, but
busybox.exe is found, parse the output of `busybox.exe --help` to find
out what applets are included, and if the command matches an included
applet name, use busybox.exe to execute it.

570e4741dc Unbreak interactive GPG prompt upon signing
With the recent update in efee955 (gpg-interface: check gpg signature
creation status, 2016-06-17), we ask GPG to send all status updates to
stderr, and then catch the stderr in an strbuf.

But GPG might fail, and send error messages to stderr. And we simply
do not show them to the user.

Even worse: this swallows any interactive prompt for a passphrase. And
detaches stderr from the tty so that the passphrase cannot be read.

So while the first problem could be fixed (by printing the captured
stderr upon error), the second problem cannot be easily fixed, and
presents a major regression.

So let's just revert commit efee9553a4.

This fixes https://github.com/git-for-windows/git/issues/871

83caf8603d mingw: support long paths
Windows paths are typically limited to MAX_PATH = 260 characters, even
though the underlying NTFS file system supports paths up to 32,767 chars.
This limitation is also evident in Windows Explorer, cmd.exe and many
other applications (including IDEs).

Particularly annoying is that most Windows APIs return bogus error codes
if a relative path only barely exceeds MAX_PATH in conjunction with the
current directory, e.g. ERROR_PATH_NOT_FOUND / ENOENT instead of the
infinitely more helpful ERROR_FILENAME_EXCED_RANGE / ENAMETOOLONG.

Many Windows wide char APIs support longer than MAX_PATH paths through the
file namespace prefix ('\\?\' or '\\?\UNC\') followed by an absolute path.
Notable exceptions include functions dealing with executables and the
current directory (CreateProcess, LoadLibrary, Get/SetCurrentDirectory) as
well as the entire shell API (ShellExecute, SHGetSpecialFolderPath...).

Introduce a handle_long_path function to check the length of a specified
path properly (and fail with ENAMETOOLONG), and to optionally expand long
paths using the '\\?\' file namespace prefix. Short paths will not be
modified, so we don't need to worry about device names (NUL, CON, AUX).

Contrary to MSDN docs, the GetFullPathNameW function doesn't seem to be
limited to MAX_PATH (at least not on Win7), so we can use it to do the
heavy lifting of the conversion (translate '/' to '\', eliminate '.' and
'..', and make an absolute path).

Add long path error checking to xutftowcs_path for APIs with hard MAX_PATH
limit.

Add a new MAX_LONG_PATH constant and xutftowcs_long_path function for APIs
that support long paths.

While improved error checking is always active, long paths support must be
explicitly enabled via 'core.longpaths' option. This is to prevent end
users to shoot themselves in the foot by checking out files that Windows
Explorer, cmd/bash or their favorite IDE cannot handle.

Test suite:
Test the case is when the full pathname length of a dir is close
to 260 (MAX_PATH).

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.

delete 10 files in different directories.

d2492c9594 fsmonitor: config settings are repository-specific
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.

91671744f0 t7527: test FS event reporing on MacOS WRT case and Unicode
Confirm that MacOS FS events are reported with a normalized spelling.

APFS (and/or HFS+) is case-insensitive.  This means that case-independent
lookups ( [ -d .git ] and [ -d .GIT ] ) should both succeed.  But that
doesn't tell us how FS events are reported if we try "rm -rf .git" versus
"rm -rf .GIT".  Are the events reported using the on-disk spelling of the
pathname or in the spelling used by the command.

NEEDSWORK: I was only able to test case.  It would be nice to add tests
that use different Unicode spellings/normalizations and understand the
differences between APFS and HFS+ in this area.  We should confirm that
the spelling of the workdir paths that the daemon sends to clients are
always properly normalized.

64c0cef838 compat/fsmonitor/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.

073a48c879 t/perf: avoid copying builtin fsmonitor files into test repo
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.

5f6bc30523 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/`.

aea2904ec5 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).

b11a18dbee 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.
