To help users discern large chunks of white text (when the push
succeeds) from large chunks of white text (when the push fails), let's
add some color to the latter.

This closes https://github.com/git-for-windows/git/pull/1429 and fixes

a8612f9919 Add a test to verify that push errors are colorful
This actually only tests whether the push errors/hints are colored if
the respective color.* config settings are `always`, but in the regular
case they default to `auto` (in which case we color the messages when
stderr is connected to an interactive terminal), therefore these tests
should suffice.

a974ee5189 exec_cmd: RUNTIME_PREFIX on some POSIX systems
Enable Git to resolve its own binary location using a variety of
OS-specific and generic methods, including:

- procfs via "/proc/self/exe" (Linux)
- _NSGetExecutablePath (Darwin)
- KERN_PROC_PATHNAME sysctl on BSDs.
- argv0, if absolute (all, including Windows).

This is used to enable RUNTIME_PREFIX support for non-Windows systems,
notably Linux and Darwin. When configured with RUNTIME_PREFIX, Git will
do a best-effort resolution of its executable path and automatically use
this as its "exec_path" for relative helper and data lookups, unless
explicitly overridden.

Small incidental formatting cleanup of "exec_cmd.c".

36eb19e449 checkout.c: enable fscache for checkout again
This is retry of #1419.

I added flush_fscache macro to flush cached stats after disk writing
with tests for regression reported in #1438 and #1442.

git checkout checks each file path in sorted order, so cache flushing does not
make performance worse unless we have large number of modified files in
a directory containing many files.

Using chromium repository, I tested `git checkout .` performance when I
delete 10 files in different directories.

ebf9c6a49a mingw: spawned processes need to inherit only standard handles
By default, CreateProcess() does not inherit any open file handles,
unless the bInheritHandles parameter is set to TRUE. Which we do need to
set because we need to pass in stdin/stdout/stderr to talk to the child
processes. Sadly, this means that all file handles (unless marked via
O_NOINHERIT) are inherited.

This lead to problems in GVFS Git, where a long-running read-object hook
is used to hydrate missing objects, and depending on the circumstances,
might only be called *after* Git opened a file handle.

Ideally, we would not open files without O_NOINHERIT unless *really*
necessary (i.e. when we want to pass the opened file handle as standard
handle into a child process), but apparently it is all-too-easy to
introduce incorrect open() calls: this happened, and prevented updating
a file after the read-object hook was started because the hook still
held a handle on said file.

Happily, there is a solution: as described in the "Old New Thing"
https://blogs.msdn.microsoft.com/oldnewthing/20111216-00/?p=8873 there
is a way, starting with Windows Vista, that lets us define precisely
which handles should be inherited by the child process.

And since we bumped the minimum Windows version for use with Git for
Windows to Vista with v2.10.1 (i.e. a *long* time ago), we can use this
method. So let's do exactly that.

We need to make sure that the list of handles to inherit does not
contain duplicates; Otherwise CreateProcessW() would fail with
ERROR_INVALID_ARGUMENT.

While at it, stop setting errno to ENOENT unless it really is the
correct value.

Also, fall back to not limiting handle inheritance under certain error
conditions (e.g. on Windows 7, which is a lot stricter in what handles
you can specify to limit to).

76d2d00e6b mingw: demonstrate that all file handles are inherited by child processes
When spawning child processes, we really should be careful which file
handles we let them inherit.

This is doubly important on Windows, where we cannot rename, delete, or
modify files if there is still a file handle open.

Sadly, we have to guard this test inside #ifdef WIN32: we need to use
the value of the HANDLE directly, and that concept does not exist on
Linux/Unix.

3153bc2b0b t9350: skip ISO-8859-1 test when the environment is always-UTF-8
In the BusyBox-w32 version that is currently under consideration for
MinGit for Windows (to reduce the .zip size, and to avoid problems with
the MSYS2 runtime), the UTF-16 environment present in Windows is
considered to be authoritative, and the 8-bit version is always in UTF-8
encoding.

As a consequence, the ISO-8859-1 test in t9350-fast-export (which tries
to set GIT_AUTHOR_NAME to a ISO-8859-1 encoded value) *must* fail in
that setup.

So let's detect when it would fail (due to an environment being purely
kept UTF-8 encoded), and skip that test in that case.

4ddf17da70 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.

83fbec1a2b 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.

483ae4587a t5605: special-case hardlink test for BusyBox-w32
When t5605 tries to verify that files are hardlinked (or that they are
not), it uses the `-links` option of the `find` utility.

BusyBox' implementation does not support that option, and BusyBox-w32's
lstat() does not even report the number of hard links correctly (for
performance reasons).

So let's just switch to a different method that actually works on
Windows.

754bc8a4d1 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.

cc0a1a1a9f t5003: skip unzip -a tests with BusyBox
BusyBox' unzip is working pretty well. But Git's tests want to abuse it
to not only extract files, but to convert their line endings on the fly,
too. BusyBox' unzip does not support that, and it would appear that
it would require rather intrusive changes.

So let's just work around this by skipping the test case that uses
`unzip -a` and the subsequent test cases expecting `unzip -a`'s output.

b00444f7f6 t4124: avoid using "normal" diff mode
Everybody and their dogs, cats and other pets settled on using unified
diffs. It is a really quaint holdover from a long-gone era that GNU diff
outputs "normal" diff by default.

Yet, t4124 relied on that mode.

This mode is so out of fashion in the meantime, though, that e.g.
BusyBox' diff decided not even to bother to support it. It only supports
unified diffs.

So let's just switch away from "normal" diffs and use unified diffs, as
we really are only interested in the `+` lines.

4382c360ac t1300: mark all test cases with funny filenames as !MINGW
On Windows, it is impossible to create a file whose name contains a
quote character. We already excluded test cases using such files from
running on Windows when git.exe itself was tested.

However, we still had two test cases that try to create such a file, and
redirect stdin from such a file, respectively. This *seems* to work in
Git for Windows' Bash due to an obscure feature inherited from Cygwin:
illegal filename characters are simply mapped into/from a private UTF-8
page. Pure Win32 programs (such as git.exe) *still* cannot work with
those files, of course, but at least Unix shell scripts pretend to be
able to.

This entire strategy breaks down when switching to any Unix shell
lacking support for that private UTF-8 page trick, e.g. BusyBox-w32's
ash. So let's just exclude test cases that test whether the Unix shell
can redirect to/from files with "funny names" those from running on
Windows, too.

4235305075 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.

d56e4b3163 test-run-command: learn to run (parts of) the testsuite
Instead of relying on the presence of `make`, or `prove`, we might just
as well use our own facilities to run the test suite.

This helps e.g. when trying to verify a Git for Windows installation
without requiring to download a full Git for Windows SDK (which would use
up 600+ megabytes of bandwidth, and over a gigabyte of disk space).

Of course, it still requires the test helpers to be build *somewhere*,
and the Git version should at least roughly match the version from which
the test suite comes.

At the same time, this new way to run the test suite allows to validate
that a BusyBox-backed MinGit works as expected (verifying that BusyBox'
functionality is enough to at least pass the test suite).

Those Unix shell quoting rules differ from the quoting rules applying to
Windows' cmd and Powershell, making it a little awkward to quote
command-line parameters properly when spawning other processes.

In particular, git.exe passes arguments to subprocesses that are *not*
intended to be interpreted as wildcards, and if they contain
backslashes, those are not to be interpreted as escape characters, e.g.
when passing Windows paths.

Note: this is only a problem when calling MSYS2 executables, not when
calling MINGW executables such as git.exe. However, we do call MSYS2
executables frequently, most notably when setting the use_shell flag in
the child_process structure.

There is no elegant way to determine whether the .exe file to be
executed is an MSYS2 program or a MINGW one. But since the use case of
passing a command line through the shell is so prevalent, we need to
work around this issue at least when executing sh.exe.

Let's introduce an ugly, hard-coded test whether argv[0] is "sh", and
whether it refers to the MSYS2 Bash, to determine whether we need to
quote the arguments differently than usual.

That still does not fix the issue completely, but at least it is
something.

Incidentally, this also fixes the problem where `git clone \\server\repo`
failed due to incorrect handling of the backslashes when handing the path
to the git-upload-pack process.

We need to take care to quote not only whitespace, but also curly
brackets. As aliases frequently go through the MSYS2 Bash, and
as aliases frequently get parameters such as HEAD@{yesterday}, let's
make sure that this does not regress by adding a test case for that.

2b6f1cda37 mingw (t5580): document bug when cloning from backslashed UNC paths
Due to a quirk in Git's method to spawn git-upload-pack, there is a
problem when passing paths with backslashes in them: Git will force the
command-line through the shell, which has different quoting semantics in
Git for Windows (being an MSYS2 program) than regular Win32 executables
such as git.exe itself.

The symptom is that the first of the two backslashes in UNC paths of the
form \\myserver\folder\repository.git is *stripped off*.

Document this bug by introducing a test case.

093eb67a92 mingw: use proper quoting of the tr argument in t5580
The use of a trailing backslash in an argument to the `tr` command is not
portable. While this test case is very specific to Windows, anyway, we
still should avoid that warning.

0b46e3d7fc Merge branch 'drive-prefix'
This topic branch allows us to specify absolute paths without the drive
prefix e.g. when cloning.

Example:

	C:\Users\me> git clone https://github.com/git/git \upstream-git

This will clone into a new directory C:\upstream-git, in line with how
Windows interprets absolute paths.

b4379e624e mingw: allow absolute paths without drive prefix
When specifying an absolute path without a drive prefix, we convert that
path internally. Let's make sure that we handle that case properly, too
;-)

This fixes the command

	git clone https://github.com/git-for-windows/git \G4W

118d5e5718 mingw: demonstrate a problem with certain absolute paths
On Windows, there are several categories of absolute paths. One such
category starts with a backslash and is implicitly relative to the
drive associated with the current working directory. Example:

	c:
	git clone https://github.com/git-for-windows/git \G4W

should clone into C:\G4W.

There is currently a problem with that, in that mingw_mktemp() does not
expect the _wmktemp() function to prefix the absolute path with the
drive prefix, and as a consequence, the resulting path does not fit into
the originally-passed string buffer. The symptom is a "Result too large"
error.
