d46c25eaae fscache: make fscache_enabled() public
Make fscache_enabled() function public rather than static.
Remove unneeded fscache_is_enabled() function.
Change is_fscache_enabled() macro to call fscache_enabled().

is_fscache_enabled() now takes a pathname so that the answer
is more precise and mean "is fscache enabled for this pathname",
since fscache only stores repo-relative paths and not absolute
paths, we can avoid attempting lookups for absolute paths.

4c8f539396 dir.c: make add_excludes aware of fscache during status
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.

This reduced status times on a 350K file enlistment of the
Windows repo on a NVMe SSD by 0.25 seconds.

947a50327c fscache: remember not-found directories
Teach FSCACHE to remember "not found" directories.

This is a performance optimization.

FSCACHE is a performance optimization available for Windows.  It
intercepts Posix-style lstat() calls into an in-memory directory
using FindFirst/FindNext.  It improves performance on Windows by
catching the first lstat() call in a directory, using FindFirst/
FindNext to read the list of files (and attribute data) for the
entire directory into the cache, and short-cut subsequent lstat()
calls in the same directory.  This gives a major performance
boost on Windows.

However, it does not remember "not found" directories.  When STATUS
runs and there are missing directories, the lstat() interception
fails to find the parent directory and simply return ENOENT for the
file -- it does not remember that the FindFirst on the directory
failed. Thus subsequent lstat() calls in the same directory, each
re-attempt the FindFirst.  This completely defeats any performance
gains.

This can be seen by doing a sparse-checkout on a large repo and
then doing a read-tree to reset the skip-worktree bits and then
running status.

This change reduced status times for my very large repo by 60%.

2956d49d97 fscache: load directories only once
If multiple threads access a directory that is not yet in the cache, the
directory will be loaded by each thread. Only one of the results is added
to the cache, all others are leaked. This wastes performance and memory.

On cache miss, add a future object to the cache to indicate that the
directory is currently being loaded. Subsequent threads register themselves
with the future object and wait. When the first thread has loaded the
directory, it replaces the future object with the result and notifies
waiting threads.

2b0ac5760c mingw: add a cache below mingw's lstat and dirent implementations
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'.

d12b394c91 mingw: make the dirent implementation pluggable
Emulating the POSIX `dirent` API on Windows via
`FindFirstFile()`/`FindNextFile()` is pretty staightforward, however,
most of the information provided in the `WIN32_FIND_DATA` structure is
thrown away in the process. A more sophisticated implementation may
cache this data, e.g. for later reuse in calls to `lstat()`.

Make the `dirent` implementation pluggable so that it can be switched at
runtime, e.g. based on a config option.

Define a base DIR structure with pointers to `readdir()`/`closedir()`
that match the `opendir()` implementation (similar to vtable pointers in
Object-Oriented Programming). Define `readdir()`/`closedir()` so that
they call the function pointers in the `DIR` structure. This allows to
choose the `opendir()` implementation on a call-by-call basis.

Make the fixed-size `dirent.d_name` buffer a flex array, as `d_name` may
be implementation specific (e.g. a caching implementation may allocate a
`struct dirent` with _just_ the size needed to hold the `d_name` in
question).

c58bf68bc2 mingw: improve performance of mingw_unlink()
Update mingw_unlink() to first try to delete the file with existing
permissions before trying to force it.

Windows throws an error when trying to delete a read-only file.  The
mingw_unlink() compatibility wrapper always tries to _wchmod(666) the
file before calling _wunlink() to avoid that error.  However, since
most files in the worktree are already writable, this is usually
wasted effort.

Update mingw_unlink() to just call DeleteFileW() directly and if that
succeeds return.  If that fails, fall back into the existing code path
to update the permissions and use _wunlink() to get the existing
error code mapping.

5563554634 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/`.

14e542b586 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.

41cb6e6bee 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

88e7b099d9 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.

0c8e3d4a02 clean: do not traverse mount points
It seems to be not exactly rare on Windows to install NTFS junction
points (the equivalent of "bind mounts" on Linux/Unix) in worktrees,
e.g. to map some development tools into a subdirectory.

In such a scenario, it is pretty horrible if `git clean -dfx` traverses
into the mapped directory and starts to "clean up".

Let's just not do that. Let's make sure before we traverse into a
directory that it is not a mount point (or junction).

b2967c0bb9 mingw: change core.fsyncObjectFiles = 1 by default
From the documentation of said setting:

	This boolean will enable fsync() when writing object files.

	This is a total waste of time and effort on a filesystem that
	orders data writes properly, but can be useful for filesystems
	that do not use journalling (traditional UNIX filesystems) or
	that only journal metadata and not file contents (OS X’s HFS+,
	or Linux ext3 with "data=writeback").

The most common file system on Windows (NTFS) does not guarantee that
order, therefore a sudden loss of power (or any other event causing an
unclean shutdown) would cause corrupt files (i.e. files filled with
NULs). Therefore we need to change the default.

Note that the documentation makes it sound as if this causes really bad
performance. In reality, writing loose objects is something that is done
only rarely, and only a handful of files at a time.

software written for GNU and BSD. Thus, redefine `alloca` macro,
which was defined before at compat/regex/regex.c:66.

Considering this is only compat code, we've taken from other project,
it's not our business to decide which source should we adhere to.

Include `<stdlib.h>` early to prevent the redefinition of alloca.
This also remove a potential warning about alloca not defined on:
	#undef alloca

69bcbbceb7 bugreport: add compiler info
To help pinpoint the source of a regression, it is useful to know some
info about the compiler which the user's Git client was built with. By
adding a generic get_compiler_info() in 'compat/' we can choose which
relevant information to share per compiler; to get started, let's
demonstrate the version of glibc if the user built with 'gcc'.

709df95b78 help: move list_config_help to builtin/help
Starting in 3ac68a93fd, help.o began to depend on builtin/branch.o,
builtin/clean.o, and builtin/config.o. This meant that help.o was
unusable outside of the context of the main Git executable.

To make help.o usable by other commands again, move list_config_help()
into builtin/help.c (where it makes sense to assume other builtin libraries
are present).

When command-list.h is included but a member is not used, we start to
hear a compiler warning. Since the config list is generated in a fairly
different way than the command list, and since commands and config
options are semantically different, move the config list into its own
header and move the generator into its own script and build rule.

For reasons explained in 976aaedc (msvc: add a Makefile target to
pre-generate the Visual Studio solution, 2019-07-29), some build
artifacts we consider non-source files cannot be generated in the
Visual Studio environment, and we already have some Makefile tweaks
to help Visual Studio to use generated command-list.h header file.
Do the same to a new generated file, config-list.h, introduced by
this change.

23eafd924a mingw: cope with the Isilon network file system
On certain network filesystems (currently encountered with Isilon, but
in theory more network storage solutions could be causing the same
issue), when the directory in question is missing,
`raceproof_create_file()` fails with an `ERROR_INVALID_PARAMETER`
instead of an `ERROR_PATH_NOT_FOUND`.

Since it is highly unlikely that we produce such an error by mistake
(the parameters we pass are fairly benign), we can be relatively certain
that the directory is missing in this instance. So let's just translate
that error automagically.

This fixes https://github.com/git-for-windows/git/issues/1345.

3efc128cd5 mingw: help debugging by optionally executing bash with strace
MSYS2's strace facility is very useful for debugging... With this patch,
the bash will be executed through strace if the environment variable
GIT_STRACE_COMMANDS is set, which comes in real handy when investigating
issues in the test suite.

Also support passing a path to a log file via GIT_STRACE_COMMANDS to
force Git to call strace.exe with the `-o <path>` argument, i.e. to log
into a file rather than print the log directly.

That comes in handy when the output would otherwise misinterpreted by a
calling process as part of Git's output.

Note: the values "1", "yes" or "true" are *not* specifying paths, but
tell Git to let strace.exe log directly to the console.

b6852e1979 mingw: do not treat COM0 as a reserved file name
In 4dc42c6c18 (mingw: refuse paths containing reserved names,
2019-12-21), we started disallowing file names that are reserved, e.g.
`NUL`, `CONOUT$`, etc.

This included `COM<n>` where `<n>` is a digit. Unfortunately, this
includes `COM0` but only `COM1`, ..., `COM9` are reserved, according to
the official documentation, `COM0` is mentioned in the "NT Namespaces"
section but it is explicitly _omitted_ from the list of reserved names:
https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/win32/fileio/naming-a-file#naming-conventions

Tests corroborate this: it is totally possible to write a file called
`com0.c` on Windows 10, but not `com1.c`.

So let's tighten the code to disallow only the reserved `COM<n>` file
names, but to allow `COM0` again.

This fixes https://github.com/git-for-windows/git/issues/2470.

a748f3f3dc mingw: use modern strftime implementation if possible
Microsoft introduced a new "Universal C Runtime Library" (UCRT) with
Visual Studio 2015. The UCRT comes with a new strftime() implementation
that supports more date formats. We link git against the older
"Microsoft Visual C Runtime Library" (MSVCRT), so to use the UCRT
strftime() we need to load it from ucrtbase.dll using
DECLARE_PROC_ADDR()/INIT_PROC_ADDR().

Most supported Windows systems should have recieved the UCRT via Windows
update, but in some cases only MSVCRT might be available. In that case
we fall back to using that implementation.

With this change, it is possible to use e.g. the `%g` and `%V` date
format specifiers, e.g.

	git show -s --format=%cd --date=format:‘%g.%V’ HEAD

Without this change, the user would see this error message on Windows:

	fatal: invalid strftime format: '‘%g.%V’'

This fixes https://github.com/git-for-windows/git/issues/2495

05ac8582bc run-command: trigger PATH lookup properly on Cygwin
On Cygwin, the codepath for POSIX-like systems is taken in
run-command.c::start_command(). The prepare_cmd() helper
function is called to decide if the command needs to be looked
up in the PATH. The logic there is to do the PATH-lookup if
and only if it does not have any slash '/' in it. If this test
passes we end up attempting to run the command by appending the
string after each colon-separated component of PATH.

The Cygwin environment supports both Windows and POSIX style
paths, so both forwardslahes '/' and back slashes '\' can be
used as directory separators for any external program the user
supplies.

Examples for path strings which are being incorrectly searched
for in the PATH instead of being executed as is:

- "C:\Program Files\some-program.exe"
- "a\b\c.exe"

To handle these, the PATH lookup detection logic in prepare_cmd()
is taught to know about this Cygwin quirk, by introducing
has_dir_sep(path) helper function to abstract away the difference
between true POSIX and Cygwin systems.
