'git cat-file' throws an error while trying to print the type or
size of a broken/corrupt object. This is because these objects are
usually of unknown types.
Teach git cat-file a '--allow-unknown-type' option where it prints
the type or size of a broken/corrupt object without throwing
an error.
Modify '-t' and '-s' options to call sha1_object_info_extended()
directly to support the '--allow-unknown-type' option.
Add documentation for 'cat-file --allow-unknown-type'.

Update sha1_loose_object_info() to optionally allow it to read
from a loose object file of unknown/bogus type; as the function
usually returns the type of the object it read in the form of enum
for known types, add an optional "typename" field to receive the
name of the type in textual form and a flag to indicate the reading
of a loose object file of unknown/bogus type.
Add parse_sha1_header_extended() which acts as a wrapper around
parse_sha1_header() allowing more information to be obtained.
Add unpack_sha1_header_to_strbuf() to unpack sha1 headers of
unknown/corrupt objects which have a unknown sha1 header size to
a strbuf structure. This was written by Junio C Hamano but tested

The XDG base dir spec[1] specifies that configuration files be stored in
a subdirectory in $XDG_CONFIG_HOME. To construct such a configuration
file path, home_config_paths() can be used. However, home_config_paths()
combines distinct functionality:
1. Retrieve the home git config file path ~/.gitconfig
2. Construct the XDG config path of the file specified by `file`.
This function was introduced in commit 21cf3227 ("read (but not write)
from $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/git/config file"). While the intention of the
function was to allow the home directory configuration file path and the
xdg directory configuration file path to be retrieved with one function
call, the hard-coding of the path ~/.gitconfig prevents it from being
used for other configuration files. Furthermore, retrieving a file path
relative to the user's home directory can be done with
expand_user_path(). Hence, it can be seen that home_config_paths()
introduces unnecessary complexity, especially if a user just wants to
retrieve the xdg config file path.
As such, implement a simpler function xdg_config_home() for constructing
the XDG base dir spec configuration file path. This function, together
with expand_user_path(), can replace all uses of home_config_paths().

Adjust the commit message with the following paragraph:
The most prominent user of `git_terminal_prompt()` is certainly
`git-remote-https.exe`. It is an interesting use case because both
`stdin` and `stdout` are redirected when Git calls said executable, yet
it still wants to access the terminal.
When running inside a `mintty`, the terminal is not accessible to the
`git-remote-https.exe` program, though, because it is a MinGW program
and the `mintty` terminal is not backed by a Win32 console.
To solve that problem, we simply call out to the shell -- which is an
*MSys2* program and can therefore access `/dev/tty`.
Access to objects in repositories that borrow from another one on a
slow NFS server unnecessarily got more expensive due to recent code
becoming more cautious in a naive way not to lose objects to pruning.

The usual "git diff" when seeing a file turning into a directory
showed a patchset to remove the file and create all files in the
directory, but "git diff --no-index" simply refused to work. Also,
when asked to compare a file and a directory, imitate POSIX "diff"
and compare the file with the file with the same name in the
directory, instead of refusing to run.

Identify parts of the code that knows that we use SHA-1 hash to

To get number of elements in an array git use the ARRAY_SIZE macro
defined as:
#define ARRAY_SIZE(x) (sizeof(x)/sizeof((x)[0]))
The problem with it is a possibility of mistakenly passing to it a
pointer instead an array. The ARRAY_SIZE macro as conventionally
defined does not provide good type-safety and the open-coded
approach is more fragile, more verbose and provides no improvement in
type-safety.
Use instead a different but compatible ARRAY_SIZE() macro,
which will also break compile if you try to
use it on a pointer. This implemention revert to the original code
if the compiler doesn't know the typeof and __builtin_types_compatible_p
GCC extensions.
This can ensure our code is robust to changes, without
needing a gratuitous macro or constant. A similar
ARRAY_SIZE implementation also exists in the linux kernel.

In the beginning, write_sha1_file() did not have a way to tell the
caller the name of the object it wrote to the caller. This was
changed in d6d3f9d0 (This implements the new "recursive tree"
write-tree., 2005-04-09) by adding the "returnsha1" parameter to the
function so that the callers who are interested in the value can
optionally pass a pointer to receive it.
It turns out that all callers do want to know the name of the object
it just has written. Nobody passes a NULL to this parameter, hence
it is not necessary to use a separate sha1[] array to receive the
result from write_sha1_file_prepare(), and copy the result to the
returnsha1 supplied by the caller.

unknown type.
When the user-provided type is particularly long, however, it can
overflow the relatively small stack-based character array handed to
write_sha1_file_prepare() by hash_sha1_file() and write_sha1_file(),
leading to stack corruption (and crash). Introduce a custom helper
to allow arbitrarily long typenames just for "hash-object --literally".

The die() / error() / warning() helpers put a fatal: / error: /
warning: prefix in front of the error message they print describing
the message's severity, which users are likely to be accustomed to
seeing these days.
This change will also be useful when marking the message for
translation: the argument to error() includes no newline at the end,
so it is less fussy for translators to translate without lines running
together in the translated output.
While we're here, start the error messages with a lowercase letter to
match the usual typography of error messages.
A quick web search and a code search at codesearch.debian.net finds no
scripts trying to parse these error messages, so this change should be
safe.

This branch wants to be merged into the git-wrapper branch; it fixes an

With a recent change in Cygwin (which is the basis of the msys2-runtime),
a GUI process desiring to launch an MSys2 executable needs to allocate a
console for the new process (otherwise the process will just hang on
Windows XP). _Git Bash_ is such a GUI process.
While at it, use correct handles when inheriting the stdin/stdout/stderr
handles: `GetStdHandle()` returns NULL for invalid handles, but the
STARTUPINFO must specify `INVALID_HANDLE_VALUE` instead.
Originally, the hope was that only this `NULL` => `INVALID_HANDLE_VALUE`
conversion would be required to fix the Windows XP issue mentioned above
(extensive debugging revealed that starting _Git Bash_ on Windows XP would
yield invalid handles for `stdin` and `stderr`, but *not* for `stdout`).
However, while _Git Bash_ eventually showed a `mintty` when not allocating
a new console, it took around one second to show it, and several seconds
to close it. So let's just include both fixes.

We are about to add another option, so let's refactor the equivalent of
Git's `strip_prefix()` function; It is not *quite* the same because we
have to `memmove()` the remainder to the beginning of the buffer.
