3ea10816ca win32: add a helper to run git.exe without a foreground window
On Windows, there are two kinds of executables, console ones and
non-console ones. Git's executables are all console ones.

When launching the former e.g. in a scheduled task, a CMD window pops
up. This is not what we want for the tasks installed via the `git
maintenance` command.

To work around this, let's introduce `headless-git.exe`, which is a
non-console program that does _not_ pop up any window. All it does is to
re-launch `git.exe`, suppressing that console window, passing through
all command-line arguments as-are.

5b1e0fe759 http: use new "best effort" strategy for Secure Channel revoke checking
The native Windows HTTPS backend is based on Secure Channel which lets
the caller decide how to handle revocation checking problems caused by
missing information in the certificate or offline CRL distribution
points.

Unfortunately, cURL chose to handle these problems differently than
OpenSSL by default: while OpenSSL happily ignores those problems
(essentially saying "¯\_(ツ)_/¯"), the Secure Channel backend will error
out instead.

As a remedy, the "no revoke" mode was introduced, which turns off
revocation checking altogether. This is a bit heavy-handed. We support
this via the `http.schannelCheckRevoke` setting.

In https://github.com/curl/curl/pull/4981, we contributed an opt-in
"best effort" strategy that emulates what OpenSSL seems to do.

In Git for Windows, we actually want this to be the default. This patch
makes it so, introducing it as a new value for the
`http.schannelCheckRevoke" setting, which now becmes a tristate: it
accepts the values "false", "true" or "best-effort" (defaulting to the
last one).

47e2a82def tests: exercise the RUNTIME_PREFIX feature
Originally, we refrained from adding a regression test in 7b6c649637
(system_path(): Add prefix computation at runtime if RUNTIME_PREFIX set,
2008-08-10), and in 226c0ddd0d (exec_cmd: RUNTIME_PREFIX on some POSIX
systems, 2018-04-10).

The reason was that it was deemed too tricky to test.

Turns out that it is not tricky to test at all: we simply create a
pseudo-root, copy the `git` executable into the `git/` subdirectory of
that pseudo-root, then copy a script into the `libexec/git-core/`
directory and expect that to be picked up.

As long as the trash directory is in a location where binaries can be
executed, this works.

9e2929e216 vcxproj: unclash project directories with build outputs

without its file extension: `./git` is ambiguous, it could refer both to

Now there is one more problem: when our GitHub workflow runs on the
`vs/master` branch, it fails in all but the Windows builds, as they want
to write the file `git` but there is already a directory in the way.

6e83c5a688 mingw: ignore HOMEDRIVE/HOMEPATH if it points to Windows' system directory
Internally, Git expects the environment variable `HOME` to be set, and
to point to the current user's home directory.

This environment variable is not set by default on Windows, and
therefore Git tries its best to construct one if it finds `HOME` unset.

There are actually two different approaches Git tries: first, it looks
at `HOMEDRIVE`/`HOMEPATH` because this is widely used in corporate
environments with roaming profiles, and a user generally wants their
global Git settings to be in a roaming profile.

Only when `HOMEDRIVE`/`HOMEPATH` is either unset or does not point to a
valid location, Git will fall back to using `USERPROFILE` instead.

However, starting with Windows Vista, for secondary logons and services,
the environment variables `HOMEDRIVE`/`HOMEPATH` point to Windows'
system directory (usually `C:\Windows\system32`).

That is undesirable, and that location is usually write-protected anyway.

So let's verify that the `HOMEDRIVE`/`HOMEPATH` combo does not point to
Windows' system directory before using it, falling back to `USERPROFILE`
if it does.

This fixes git-for-windows#2709

be7e67ff7a 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/`.

7f588bc13c mingw: ensure valid CTYPE
A change between versions 2.4.1 and 2.6.0 of the MSYS2 runtime modified
how Cygwin's runtime (and hence Git for Windows' MSYS2 runtime
derivative) handles locales: d16a56306d (Consolidate wctomb/mbtowc calls
for POSIX-1.2008, 2016-07-20).

An unintended side-effect is that "cold-calling" into the POSIX
emulation will start with a locale based on the current code page,
something that Git for Windows is very ill-prepared for, as it expects
to be able to pass a command-line containing non-ASCII characters to the
shell without having those characters munged.

One symptom of this behavior: when `git clone` or `git fetch` shell out
to call `git-upload-pack` with a path that contains non-ASCII
characters, the shell tried to interpret the entire command-line
(including command-line parameters) as executable path, which obviously
must fail.

dd1ad751ab 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

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.

4597a1dc82 mingw: fix fatal error working on mapped network drives on Windows
In 1e64d18 (mingw: do resolve symlinks in `getcwd()`) a problem was
introduced that causes git for Windows to stop working with certain
mapped network drives (in particular, drives that are mapped to
locations with long path names). Error message was "fatal: Unable to
read current working directory: No such file or directory". Present
change fixes this issue as discussed in
https://github.com/git-for-windows/git/issues/2480

2ae019383c mingw: do resolve symlinks in getcwd()
As pointed out in https://github.com/git-for-windows/git/issues/1676,
the `git rev-parse --is-inside-work-tree` command currently fails when
the current directory's path contains symbolic links.

The underlying reason for this bug is that `getcwd()` is supposed to
resolve symbolic links, but our `mingw_getcwd()` implementation did not.

We do have all the building blocks for that, though: the
`GetFinalPathByHandleW()` function will resolve symbolic links. However,
we only called that function if `GetLongPathNameW()` failed, for
historical reasons: the latter function was supported for a long time,
but the former API function was introduced only with Windows Vista, and
we used to support also Windows XP. With that support having been
dropped, we are free to call the symbolic link-resolving function right
away.

a65913eaf1 mingw: make sure errno is set correctly when socket operations fail
The winsock2 library provides functions that work on different data
types than file descriptors, therefore we wrap them.

But that is not the only difference: they also do not set `errno` but
expect the callers to enquire about errors via `WSAGetLastError()`.

Let's translate that into appropriate `errno` values whenever the socket
operations fail so that Git's code base does not have to change its
expectations.

This closes https://github.com/git-for-windows/git/issues/2404

b603607322 Config option to disable side-band-64k for transport
Since commit 0c499ea60f the send-pack builtin uses the side-band-64k
capability if advertised by the server.

Unfortunately this breaks pushing over the dump git protocol if used
over a network connection.

The detailed reasons for this breakage are (by courtesy of Jeff Preshing,
quoted from ttps://groups.google.com/d/msg/msysgit/at8D7J-h7mw/eaLujILGUWoJ):
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
MinGW wraps Windows sockets in CRT file descriptors in order to mimic the
functionality of POSIX sockets. This causes msvcrt.dll to treat sockets as
Installable File System (IFS) handles, calling ReadFile, WriteFile,
DuplicateHandle and CloseHandle on them. This approach works well in simple
cases on recent versions of Windows, but does not support all usage patterns.
In particular, using this approach, any attempt to read & write concurrently
on the same socket (from one or more processes) will deadlock in a scenario
where the read waits for a response from the server which is only invoked after
the write. This is what send_pack currently attempts to do in the use_sideband
codepath.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------

The new config option "sendpack.sideband" allows to override the side-band-64k
capability of the server, and thus makes the dump git protocol work.

Other transportation methods like ssh and http/https still benefit from
the sideband channel, therefore the default value of "sendpack.sideband"
is still true.
