As we already link to the zlib library, we can perform the compression
without even requiring gzip on the host machine.

MinGit for Windows comes without `gzip` bundled inside, git-archive uses
`gzip -cn` to compress tar files but for this to work, gzip needs to be
present on the host system.
In the next commit, we will change the gzip compression so that we no
longer spawn `gzip` but let zlib perform the compression in the same
process instead.
In preparation for this, we consolidate all the block writes into a
single function.

l10n: de.po: Fix typo in the German translation of octopus
l10n: de.po: Update German translation for Git 2.27.0
f1e3df3169 (t: increase test coverage of signature verification output,
2020-03-04) adds GPG dependent tests to t4202 and t6200 that were found
problematic with at least OpenBSD 6.7.
Using an escaped '|' for alternations works only in some implementations
of grep (e.g. GNU and busybox).
It is not part of POSIX[1] and not supported by some BSD, macOS, and
possibly other POSIX compatible implementations.
Use `grep -E`, and write it using extended regular expression.

This commit fixes mingw_lstat by computing the proper size for symlinks
according to POSIX. POSIX specifies that upon successful return from
lstat: "the value of the st_size member shall be set to the length of
the pathname contained in the symbolic link not including any
terminating null byte".
Prior to this commit the mingw_lstat function returned a fixed size of
4096. This caused problems in git repositories that were accessed by
git for Cygwin or git for WSL. For example, doing `git reset --hard`
using git for Windows would update the size of symlinks in the index
to be 4096; at a later time git for Cygwin or git for WSL would find
that symlinks have changed size during `git status`. Vice versa doing
`git reset --hard` in git for Cygwin or git for WSL would update the
size of symlinks in the index with the correct value, only for git for
Windows to find incorrectly at a later time that the size had changed.

To set the default hash algorithm you can set the `GIT_DEFAULT_HASH`
environment variable. In the documentation this variable is named
`GIT_DEFAULT_HASH_ALGORITHM`, which is incorrect.

This topic branch re-adds the deprecated --stdin/-z options to `git
reset`. Those patches were overridden by a different set of options in
the upstream Git project before we could propose `--stdin`.
We offered this in MinGit to applications that wanted a safer way to
pass lots of pathspecs to Git, and these applications will need to be
adjusted.
Instead of `--stdin`, `--pathspec-from-file=-` should be used, and
instead of `-z`, `--pathspec-file-nul`.

This branch allows third-party tools to call `git status
--no-lock-index` to avoid lock contention with the interactive Git usage
of the actual human user.

We already avoid traversing NTFS junction points in `git clean -dfx`.
With this topic branch, we do that when the FSCache is enabled, too.

When updating the skip-worktree bits in the index to align with new
values in a sparse-checkout file, Git scans the entire working
directory with lstat() calls. In a sparse-checkout, many of these
lstat() calls are for paths that do not exist.
Enable the fscache feature during this scan.
In a local test of a repo with ~2.2 million paths, updating the index
with `git read-tree -m -u HEAD` with a sparse-checkout file containing
only `/.gitattributes` improved from 2-3 minutes to 15-20 seconds.
More work could be done to stop running lstat() calls when recursing
into directories that are known to not exist.
This brings substantial wins in performance because the FSCache is now
per-thread, being merged to the primary thread only at the end, so we do
not have to lock (except while merging).
