On Windows, symbolic links actually have a type depending on the target:
it can be a file or a directory.
In certain circumstances, this poses problems, e.g. when a symbolic link
is supposed to point into a submodule that is not checked out, so there
is no way for Git to auto-detect the type.
To help with that, we will add support over the course of the next
commits to specify that symlink type via the Git attributes. This
requires an index_state, though, something that Git for Windows'
`symlink()` replacement cannot know about because the function signature
is defined by the POSIX standard and not ours to change.
So let's introduce a helper function to create symbolic links that
*does* know about the index_state.

The threading model for fscache has been to have a single, global cache.
This puts requirements on it to be thread safe so that callers like
preload-index can call it from multiple threads. This was implemented
with a single mutex and completion events which introduces contention
between the calling threads.
Simplify the threading model by making fscache thread specific. This allows
us to remove the global mutex and synchronization events entirely and instead
associate a fscache with every thread that requests one. This works well with
the current multi-threading which divides the cache entries into blocks with
a separate thread processing each block.
At the end of each worker thread, if there is a fscache on the primary
thread, merge the cached results from the worker into the primary thread
cache. This enables us to reuse the cache later especially when scanning for
untracked files.
In testing, this reduced the time spent in preload_index() by about 25% and
also reduced the CPU utilization significantly. On a repo with ~200K files,
it reduced overall status times by ~12%.

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.

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'.

This branch introduces support for reading the "Windows-wide" Git

Signed-off-by: Johannes Schindelin <johannes.schindelin@gmx.de>
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.

With this patch, Git can be built using the Microsoft toolchain, via:
make MSVC=1 [DEBUG=1]
Third party libraries are built from source using the open source
"vcpkg" tool set. See https://github.com/Microsoft/vcpkg
On a first build, the vcpkg tools and the third party libraries are
automatically downloaded and built. DLLs for the third party libraries
are copied to the top-level (and t/helper) directory to facilitate
debugging. See compat/vcbuild/README.
A series of .bat files are invoked by the Makefile to find the location
of the installed version of Visual Studio and the associated compiler
tools (essentially replicating the environment setup performed by a
"Developer Command Prompt"). This should find the most recent VS2015 or
VS2017 installation. Output from these scripts are used by the Makefile
to define compiler and linker pathnames and -I and -L arguments.
The build produces .pdb files for both debug and release builds.
Note: This commit was squashed from an organic series of commits
developed between 2016 and 2018 in Git for Windows' `master` branch.
This combined commit eliminates the obsolete commits related to fetching
NuGet packages for third party libraries. It is difficult to use NuGet
packages for C/C++ sources because they may be built by earlier versions
of the MSVC compiler and have CRT version and linking issues.
Additionally, the C/C++ NuGet packages that were using tended to not be
updated concurrently with the sources. And in the case of cURL and
OpenSSL, this could expose us to security issues.

A regression for cygwin users was introduced with commit 05b458c,
"real_path: resolve symlinks by hand".
In the the commit message we read:
The current implementation of real_path uses chdir() in order to resolve
symlinks. Unfortunately this isn't thread-safe as chdir() affects a
process as a whole...
The old (and non-thread-save) OS calls chdir()/pwd() had been
replaced by a string operation.
The cygwin layer "knows" that "C:\cygwin" is an absolute path,
but the new string operation does not.
"git clone <url> C:\cygwin\home\USER\repo" fails like this:
fatal: Invalid path '/home/USER/repo/C:\cygwin\home\USER\repo'
The solution is to implement has_dos_drive_prefix(), skip_dos_drive_prefix()
is_dir_sep(), offset_1st_component() and convert_slashes() for cygwin
in the same way as it is done in 'Git for Windows' in compat/mingw.[ch]
Extract the needed code into compat/win32/path-utils.[ch] and use it
for cygwin as well.

A few issues in the implementation of "delta-islands" feature has
been corrected.
* cc/delta-islands:
pack-objects: fix off-by-one in delta-island tree-depth computation
pack-objects: zero-initialize tree_depth/layer arrays
pack-objects: fix tree_depth and layer invariants
Commit 108f530385 (pack-objects: move tree_depth into 'struct
packing_data', 2018-08-16) started maintaining a tree_depth array that
matches the "objects" array. We extend the array when:
1. The objects array is extended, in which case we use realloc to
extend the tree_depth array.
2. A caller asks to store a tree_depth for object N, and this is the
first such request; we create the array from scratch and store the
value for N.
In the latter case, though, we use regular xmalloc(), and the depth
values for any objects besides N is undefined. This happens to not
trigger a bug with the current code, but the reasons are quite subtle:
- we never ask about the depth for any object with index i < N. This is
because we store the depth immediately for all trees and blobs. So
any such "i" must be a non-tree, and therefore we will never need to
care about its depth (in fact, we really only care about the depth of
trees).
- there are no objects at this point with index i > N, because we
always fill in the depth for a tree immediately after its object
entry is created (we may still allocate uninitialized depth entries,
but they'll be initialized by packlist_alloc() when it initializes
the entry in the "objects" array).
So it works, but only by chance. To be defensive, let's zero the array,
which matches the "unset" values which would be handed out by
oe_tree_depth() already.

We tried for a long time to play nice with the last remaining XP users
who somehow manage to build Git from source, but a recent update of
mingw-w64 (7.0.0.5233.e0c09544 -> 7.0.0.5245.edf66197) finally dropped
the last sign of XP support, and Git for Windows' SDK is no longer able
to build core Git's `master` branch as a consequence. (Git for Windows'
`master` branch already bumped the minimum Windows version to Vista a

It is time to require Windows Vista or later to build Git from source.

There are a few standard C functions (like strcpy) which are
easy to misuse. E.g.:
char path[PATH_MAX];
strcpy(path, arg);
may overflow the "path" buffer. Sometimes there's an earlier
constraint on the size of "arg", but even in such a case
it's hard to verify that the code is correct. If the size
really is unbounded, you're better off using a dynamic
helper like strbuf:
struct strbuf path = STRBUF_INIT;
strbuf_addstr(path, arg);
or if it really is bounded, then use xsnprintf to show your
expectation (and get a run-time assertion):
char path[PATH_MAX];
xsnprintf(path, sizeof(path), "%s", arg);
which makes further auditing easier.
We'd usually catch undesirable code like this in a review,
but there's no automated enforcement. Adding that
enforcement can help us be more consistent and save effort
(and a round-trip) during review.
This patch teaches the compiler to report an error when it
sees strcpy (and will become a model for banning a few other
functions). This has a few advantages over a separate
linting tool:
1. We know it's run as part of a build cycle, so it's
hard to ignore. Whereas an external linter is an extra
step the developer needs to remember to do.
2. Likewise, it's basically free since the compiler is
parsing the code anyway.
3. We know it's robust against false positives (unlike a
grep-based linter).
The two big disadvantages are:
1. We'll only check code that is actually compiled, so it
may miss code that isn't triggered on your particular
system. But since presumably people don't add new code
without compiling it (and if they do, the banned
function list is the least of their worries), we really
only care about failing to clean up old code when
adding new functions to the list. And that's easy
enough to address with a manual audit when adding a new
function (which is what I did for the functions here).
2. If this ends up generating false positives, it's going
to be harder to disable (as opposed to a separate
linter, which may have mechanisms for overriding a
particular case).
But the intent is to only ban functions which are
obviously bad, and for which we accept using an
alternative even when this particular use isn't buggy
(e.g., the xsnprintf alternative above).
The implementation here is simple: we'll define a macro for
the banned function which replaces it with a reference to a
descriptively named but undeclared identifier. Replacing it
with any invalid code would work (since we just want to
break compilation). But ideally we'd meet these goals:
- it should be portable; ideally this would trigger
everywhere, and does not need to be part of a DEVELOPER=1
setup (because unlike warnings which may depend on the
compiler or system, this is a clear indicator of
something wrong in the code).
- it should generate a readable error that gives the
developer a clue what happened
- it should avoid generating too much other cruft that
makes it hard to see the actual error
- it should mention the original callsite in the error
The output with this patch looks like this (using gcc 7, on
a checkout with 022d2ac1f3 reverted, which removed the final
strcpy from blame.c):
CC builtin/blame.o
In file included from ./git-compat-util.h:1246,
from ./cache.h:4,
from builtin/blame.c:8:
builtin/blame.c: In function ‘cmd_blame’:

#define BANNED(func) sorry_##func##_is_a_banned_function

#define strcpy(x,y) BANNED(strcpy)
^~~~~~
builtin/blame.c:1074:4: note: in expansion of macro ‘strcpy’
strcpy(repeated_meta_color, GIT_COLOR_CYAN);
^~~~~~
This prominently shows the phrase "strcpy is a banned
function", along with the original callsite in blame.c and
the location of the ban code in banned.h. Which should be
enough to get even a developer seeing this for the first
time pointed in the right direction.
This doesn't match our ideals perfectly, but it's a pretty
good balance. A few alternatives I tried:
1. Instead of using an undeclared variable, using an
undeclared function. This shortens the message, because
the "each undeclared identifier" message is not needed
(and as you can see above, it triggers a separate
mention of each of the expansion points).
But it doesn't actually stop compilation unless you use
-Werror=implicit-function-declaration in your CFLAGS.
This is the case for DEVELOPER=1, but not for a default
build (on the other hand, we'd eventually produce a
link error pointing to the correct source line with the
descriptive name).
2. The linux kernel uses a similar mechanism in its
BUILD_BUG_ON_MSG(), where they actually declare the
function but do so with gcc's error attribute. But
that's not portable to other compilers (and it also
runs afoul of our error() macro).
We could make a gcc-specific technique and fallback on
other compilers, but it's probably not worth the
complexity. It also isn't significantly shorter than
the error message shown above.
3. We could drop the BANNED() macro, which would shorten
the number of lines in the error. But curiously,
removing it (and just expanding strcpy directly to the
bogus identifier) causes gcc _not_ to report the
original line of code.
So this strategy seems to be an acceptable mix of
information, portability, simplicity, and robustness,
without _too_ much extra clutter. I also tested it with
clang, and it looks as good (actually, slightly less
cluttered than with gcc).

pack-objects could be a big memory hog especially on large repos,
everybody knows that. The suggestion to stick a .keep file on the
giant base pack to avoid this problem is also known for a long time.
Recent patches add an option to do just this, but it has to be either
configured or activated manually. This patch lets `git gc --auto`
activate this mode automatically when it thinks `repack -ad` will use
a lot of memory and start affecting the system due to swapping or
flushing OS cache.
gc --auto decides to do this based on an estimation of pack-objects
memory usage, which is quite accurate at least for the heap part, and
whether that fits in half of system memory (the assumption here is for
desktop environment where there are many other applications running).
This mechanism only kicks in if gc.bigBasePackThreshold is not configured.
If it is, it is assumed that the user already knows what they want.

We often accept both a "--key" option and a "--key=<val>" option.
These options currently are parsed using something like:
if (!strcmp(arg, "--key")) {
/* do something */
} else if (skip_prefix(arg, "--key=", &arg)) {
/* do something with arg */
}
which is a bit cumbersome compared to just:
if (skip_to_optional_arg(arg, "--key", &arg)) {
/* do something with arg */
}
This also introduces skip_to_optional_arg_default() for the few
cases where something different should be done when the first
argument is exactly "--key" than when it is exactly "--key=".
In general it is better for UI consistency and simplicity if
"--key" and "--key=" do the same thing though, so that using
skip_to_optional_arg() should be encouraged compared to
skip_to_optional_arg_default().
Note that these functions can be used to parse any "key=value"
string where "key" is also considered as valid, not just
command line options.
