Support building Git with Visual Studio
The bits about .git/branches/* have been dropped from the series.
We may want to drop the support for it, but until that happens, the
tests should rely on the existence of the support to pass.
* js/visual-studio: (23 commits)
git: avoid calling aliased builtins via their dashed form
bin-wrappers: append `.exe` to target paths if necessary
.gitignore: ignore Visual Studio's temporary/generated files
.gitignore: touch up the entries regarding Visual Studio
vcxproj: also link-or-copy builtins
msvc: add a Makefile target to pre-generate the Visual Studio solution
contrib/buildsystems: add a backend for modern Visual Studio versions
contrib/buildsystems: handle options starting with a slash
contrib/buildsystems: also handle -lexpat
contrib/buildsystems: handle libiconv, too
contrib/buildsystems: handle the curl library option
contrib/buildsystems: error out on unknown option
contrib/buildsystems: optionally capture the dry-run in a file
contrib/buildsystems: redirect errors of the dry run into a log file
contrib/buildsystems: ignore gettext stuff
contrib/buildsystems: handle quoted spaces in filenames
contrib/buildsystems: fix misleading error message
contrib/buildsystems: ignore irrelevant files in Generators/
contrib/buildsystems: ignore invalidcontinue.obj

Hotfix for making "git log" use the mailmap by default.
* jc/log-mailmap-flip-defaults:
log: really flip the --mailmap default
log: flip the --mailmap default unconditionally
The recently added [includeif "onbranch:branch"] feature does not
work well with an early config mechanism, as it attempts to find
out what branch we are on before we even haven't located the git
repository. The inclusion during early config scan is ignored to
work around this issue.
* js/early-config-with-onbranch:
config: work around bug with includeif:onbranch and early config
Update the docs, test the interaction between the new default,
configuration and command line option, in addition to actually
flipping the default.

Squelch unneeded and misleading warnings from "repack" when the
command attempts to generate pack bitmaps without explicitly asked
for by the user.
* jk/repack-silence-auto-bitmap-warning:
repack: simplify handling of auto-bitmaps and .keep files
repack: silence warnings when auto-enabled bitmaps cannot be built
t7700: clean up .keep file in bitmap-writing test

It turns out that being cautious to warn against upcoming default
change was an unpopular behaviour, and such a care can easily be
defeated by distro packagers to render it ineffective anyway.
Just flip the default, with only a mention in the release notes.

Since 07b2c0eaca (config: learn the "onbranch:" includeIf condition,
2019-06-05), there is a potential catch-22 in the early config path: if
the `include.onbranch:` feature is used, Git assumes that the Git
directory has been initialized already. However, in the early config
code path that is not true.
One way to trigger this is to call the following commands in any
repository:
git config includeif.onbranch:refs/heads/master.path broken
git help -a
The symptom triggered by the `git help -a` invocation reads like this:
BUG: refs.c:1851: attempting to get main_ref_store outside of repository
Let's work around this, simply by ignoring the `includeif.onbranch:`
setting when parsing the config when the ref store has not been
initialized (yet).
Technically, there is a way to solve this properly: teach the refs
machinery to initialize the ref_store from a given gitdir/commondir pair
(which we _do_ have in the early config code path), and then use that in
`include_by_branch()`. This, however, is a pretty involved project, and
we're already in the feature freeze for Git v2.23.0.
Note: when calling above-mentioned two commands _outside_ of any Git
worktree (passing the `--global` flag to `git config`, as there is
obviously no repository config available), at the point when
`include_by_branch()` is called, `the_repository` is `NULL`, therefore
we have to be extra careful not to dereference it in that case.

Compilation fix.

Commit 7328482253 (repack: disable bitmaps-by-default if .keep files
exist, 2019-06-29) taught repack to prefer disabling bitmaps to
duplicating objects (unless bitmaps were asked for explicitly).
But there's an easier way to do this: if we keep passing the
--honor-pack-keep flag to pack-objects when auto-enabling bitmaps, then
pack-objects already makes the same decision (it will disable bitmaps
rather than duplicate). Better still, pack-objects can actually decide
to do so based not just on the presence of a .keep file, but on whether
that .keep file actually impacts the new pack we're making (so if we're
racing with a push or fetch, for example, their temporary .keep file
will not block us from generating bitmaps if they haven't yet updated
their refs).
And because repack uses the --write-bitmap-index-quiet flag, we don't
have to worry about pack-objects generating confusing warnings when it
does see a .keep file. We can confirm this by tweaking the .keep test to
check repack's stderr.

Depending on various config options, a full repack may not be able to
build a reachability bitmap index (e.g., if pack.packSizeLimit forces us
to write multiple packs). In these cases pack-objects may write a
warning to stderr.
Since 36eba0323d (repack: enable bitmaps by default on bare repos,
2019-03-14), we may generate these warnings even when the user did not
explicitly ask for bitmaps. This has two downsides:
- it can be confusing, if they don't know what bitmaps are
- a daemonized auto-gc will write this to its log file, and the
presence of the warning may suppress further auto-gc (until
gc.logExpiry has elapsed)
Let's have repack communicate to pack-objects that the choice to turn on
bitmaps was not made explicitly by the user, which in turn allows
pack-objects to suppress these warnings.

After our test snippet finishes, the .keep file is left in place, making
it hard to do further tests of the auto-bitmap-writing code (since it
suppresses the feature completely). Let's clean it up.

The iteration order of a hashmap is undefined, and may depend on things
like the exact set of items added, or the table has been grown or
shrunk. In the case of an oidmap, it even depends on endianness, because
we take the oid hash by casting sha1 bytes directly into an unsigned
int.
Let's sort the test-tool output from any hash iterators. In the case of
t0011, this is just future-proofing. But for t0016, it actually fixes a
reported failure on the big-endian s390 and nonstop ports.
I didn't bother to teach the helper functions to optionally sort output.
They are short enough that it's simpler to just repeat them inline for
the iteration tests than it is to add a --sort option.

A few tests printed 'errno' as an integer and compared with
hardcoded integers; this is obviously not portable.
A two things to note are:
- the string obtained by strerror() is not portable, and cannot be
used for the purpose of these tests.
- there unfortunately isn't a portable way to map error numbers to
error names.
As we only care about a few selected errors, just map the error
number to the name before emitting for comparison.

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).
