6b7c0e39cc git-artifacts: cache the build-installers artifact
It is a bit expensive to fetch just the git-sdk-64-build-installers
artifact from Azure Pipelines and then to unpack it (takes some 6-7
minutes, typically). Let's cache it if possible.

55070bc40b git-artifacts: allow specifying repo/ref via workflow_dispatch
With this change, users can specify the branch and repository from which
they want to build Git for Windows' artifacts, via the `ref` and
`repository` inputs.

This allows e.g. building `refs/heads/seen` of `git/git` (even if no
`git-artifacts` workflow is configured in that repository), or
`refs/pull/<number>/merge` for a given Pull Request.

33cea97679 git-artifacts: allow restricting which artifacts are built
Users can now specify which artifacts they want to build, via the
`build_only` input, which is a space-separated list of artifacts. For
example, `installer portable` will build `installer-x86_64`,
`installer-i686`, `portable-x86_64` and `portable-i686`, and an empty or
unset value will build all artifacts.

Please note that the `mingw-w64-git` packages are built always, as it
would be tricky to figure out when they need to be built (for example,
`build_only=portable-x86_64` technically does not need `pkg-i686` to be
built, while `build_only=portable` does).

6a38e33331 Revert 'diff-merges: let "-m" imply "-p"'
This reverts commit f5bfcc823b, which
made "git log -m" imply "--patch" by default.  The logic was that
"-m", which makes diff generation for merges perform a diff against
each parent, has no use unless I am viewing the diff, so we could save
the user some typing by turning on display of the resulting diff
automatically.  That wasn't expected to adversely affect scripts
because scripts would either be using a command like "git diff-tree"
that already emits diffs by default or would be combining -m with a
diff generation option such as --name-status.  By saving typing for
interactive use without adversely affecting scripts in the wild, it
would be a pure improvement.

The problem is that although diff generation options are only relevant
for the displayed diff, a script author can imagine them affecting
path limiting.  For example, I might run

	git log -w --format=%H -- README

hoping to list commits that edited README, excluding whitespace-only
changes.  In fact, a whitespace-only change is not TREESAME so the use
of -w here has no effect (since we don't apply these diff generation
flags to the diff_options struct rev_info::pruning used for this
purpose), but the documentation suggests that it should work

	Suppose you specified foo as the <paths>. We shall call
	commits that modify foo !TREESAME, and the rest TREESAME. (In
	a diff filtered for foo, they look different and equal,
	respectively.)

and a script author who has not tested whitespace-only changes
wouldn't notice.

Similarly, a script author could include

	git log -m --first-parent --format=%H -- README

to filter the first-parent history for commits that modified README.
The -m is a no-op but it reflects the script author's intent.  For
example, until 1e20a407fe (stash list: stop passing "-m" to "git
log", 2021-05-21), "git stash list" did this.

As a result, we can't safely change "-m" to imply "-p" without fear of
breaking such scripts.  Restore the previous behavior.

Noticed because Rust's src/bootstrap/bootstrap.py made use of this
same construct: https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/87513.  That
script has been updated to omit the unnecessary "-m" option, but we
can expect other scripts in the wild to have similar expectations.

We offered this in MinGit to applications that wanted a safer way to

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

Previously, we did not install any handler for Ctrl+C, but now we really

With this, hitting Ctrl+C while `git log` is running will only terminate

5c8c9b4dca mingw: kill child processes in a gentler way
The TerminateProcess() function does not actually leave the child
processes any chance to perform any cleanup operations. This is bad
insofar as Git itself expects its signal handlers to run.

A symptom is e.g. a left-behind .lock file that would not be left behind
if the same operation was run, say, on Linux.

To remedy this situation, we use an obscure trick: we inject a thread
into the process that needs to be killed and to let that thread run the
ExitProcess() function with the desired exit status. Thanks J Wyman for
describing this trick.

The advantage is that the ExitProcess() function lets the atexit
handlers run. While this is still different from what Git expects (i.e.
running a signal handler), in practice Git sets up signal handlers and
atexit handlers that call the same code to clean up after itself.

In case that the gentle method to terminate the process failed, we still
fall back to calling TerminateProcess(), but in that case we now also
make sure that processes spawned by the spawned process are terminated;
TerminateProcess() does not give the spawned process a chance to do so
itself.

Please note that this change only affects how Git for Windows tries to
terminate processes spawned by Git's own executables. Third-party
software that *calls* Git and wants to terminate it *still* need to make
sure to imitate this gentle method, otherwise this patch will not have
any effect.

7baa1990e9 t9200: skip tests when $PWD contains a colon
On Windows, the current working directory is pretty much guaranteed to
contain a colon. If we feed that path to CVS, it mistakes it for a
separator between host and port, though.

This has not been a problem so far because Git for Windows uses MSYS2's
Bash using a POSIX emulation layer that also pretends that the current
directory is a Unix path (at least as long as we're in a shell script).

However, that is rather limiting, as Git for Windows also explores other
ports of other Unix shells. One of those is BusyBox-w32's ash, which is
a native port (i.e. *not* using any POSIX emulation layer, and certainly
not emulating Unix paths).

So let's just detect if there is a colon in $PWD and punt in that case.

8c0ea705c7 t5813: allow for $PWD to be a Windows path
Git for Windows uses MSYS2's Bash to run the test suite, which comes
with benefits but also at a heavy price: on the plus side, MSYS2's
POSIX emulation layer allows us to continue pretending that we are on a
Unix system, e.g. use Unix paths instead of Windows ones, yet this is
bought at a rather noticeable performance penalty.

There *are* some more native ports of Unix shells out there, though,
most notably BusyBox-w32's ash. These native ports do not use any POSIX
emulation layer (or at most a *very* thin one, choosing to avoid
features such as fork() that are expensive to emulate on Windows), and
they use native Windows paths (usually with forward slashes instead of
backslashes, which is perfectly legal in almost all use cases).

And here comes the problem: with a $PWD looking like, say,
C:/git-sdk-64/usr/src/git/t/trash directory.t5813-proto-disable-ssh
Git's test scripts get quite a bit confused, as their assumptions have
been shattered. Not only does this path contain a colon (oh no!), it
also does not start with a slash.

This is a problem e.g. when constructing a URL as t5813 does it:
ssh://remote$PWD. Not only is it impossible to separate the "host" from
the path with a $PWD as above, even prefixing $PWD by a slash won't
work, as /C:/git-sdk-64/... is not a valid path.

As a workaround, detect when $PWD does not start with a slash on
Windows, and simply strip the drive prefix, using an obscure feature of
Windows paths: if an absolute Windows path starts with a slash, it is
implicitly prefixed by the drive prefix of the current directory. As we
are talking about the current directory here, anyway, that strategy
works.

BusyBox' implementation does not support that option, and BusyBox-w32's

performance reasons).

f42c1c7637 t5532: workaround for BusyBox on Windows
While it may seem super convenient to some old Unix hands to simpy
require Perl to be available when running the test suite, this is a
major hassle on Windows, where we want to verify that Perl is not,
actually, required in a NO_PERL build.

As a super ugly workaround, we "install" a script into /usr/bin/perl
reading like this:

	#!/bin/sh

	# We'd much rather avoid requiring Perl altogether when testing
	# an installed Git. Oh well, that's why we cannot have nice
	# things.
	exec c:/git-sdk-64/usr/bin/perl.exe "$@"

The problem with that is that BusyBox assumes that the #! line in a
script refers to an executable, not to a script. So when it encounters
the line #!/usr/bin/perl in t5532's proxy-get-cmd, it barfs.

Let's help this situation by simply executing the Perl script with the
"interpreter" specified explicitly.

However, other Unix shells are available, too. Most notably, the Win32

Therefore, let's be careful not to override `pwd` unless we know that

55c818896c tests: use the correct path separator with BusyBox
BusyBox-w32 is a true Win32 application, i.e. it does not come with a
POSIX emulation layer.

That also means that it does *not* use the Unix convention of separating
the entries in the PATH variable using colons, but semicolons.

However, there are also BusyBox ports to Windows which use a POSIX
emulation layer such as Cygwin's or MSYS2's runtime, i.e. using colons
as PATH separators.

As a tell-tale, let's use the presence of semicolons in the PATH
variable: on Unix, it is highly unlikely that it contains semicolons,
and on Windows (without POSIX emulation), it is virtually guaranteed, as
everybody should have both $SYSTEMROOT and $SYSTEMROOT/system32 in their
PATH.

d35cf11a32 tests: use t/lib-diff/* consistently
The idea of copying README and COPYING into t/lib-diff/ was to step away
from using files from outside t/ in tests. Let's really make sure that
we use the files from t/lib-diff/ instead of other versions of those
files.

d05ef1a59c test-tool: learn to act as a drop-in replacement for iconv
It is convenient to assume that everybody who wants to build & test Git
has access to a working `iconv` executable (after all, we already pretty
much require libiconv).

However, that limits esoteric test scenarios such as Git for Windows',
where an end user installation has to ship with `iconv` for the sole
purpose of being testable. That payload serves no other purpose.

So let's just have a test helper (to be able to test Git, the test
helpers have to be available, after all) to act as `iconv` replacement.

51da5ae299 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.

b4a583cfcc 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.
