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`.

The `--stdin` option was a well-established paradigm in other commands,
therefore we implemented it in `git reset` for use by Visual Studio.
Unfortunately, upstream Git decided that it is time to introduce
`--pathspec-from-file` instead.
To keep backwards-compatibility for some grace period, we therefore
reinstate the `--stdin` option on top of the `--pathspec-from-file`
option, but mark it firmly as deprecated.

On Windows, symbolic links have a type: a "file symlink" must point at
a file, and a "directory symlink" must point at a directory. If the
type of symlink does not match its target, it doesn't work.
Git does not record the type of symlink in the index or in a tree. On
checkout it'll guess the type, which only works if the target exists
at the time the symlink is created. This may often not be the case,
for example when the link points at a directory inside a submodule.
By specifying `symlink=file` or `symlink=dir` the user can specify what
type of symlink Git should create, so Git doesn't have to rely on
unreliable heuristics.

On Windows, git repositories may have extra files which need cleaned
(e.g., a build directory) that may be arbitrarily deep. Suggest using
`core.longPaths` if such situations are encountered.
Fixes: #2715

Windows paths are typically limited to MAX_PATH = 260 characters, even
though the underlying NTFS file system supports paths up to 32,767 chars.
This limitation is also evident in Windows Explorer, cmd.exe and many
other applications (including IDEs).
Particularly annoying is that most Windows APIs return bogus error codes
if a relative path only barely exceeds MAX_PATH in conjunction with the
current directory, e.g. ERROR_PATH_NOT_FOUND / ENOENT instead of the
infinitely more helpful ERROR_FILENAME_EXCED_RANGE / ENAMETOOLONG.
Many Windows wide char APIs support longer than MAX_PATH paths through the
file namespace prefix ('\\?\' or '\\?\UNC\') followed by an absolute path.
Notable exceptions include functions dealing with executables and the
current directory (CreateProcess, LoadLibrary, Get/SetCurrentDirectory) as
well as the entire shell API (ShellExecute, SHGetSpecialFolderPath...).
Introduce a handle_long_path function to check the length of a specified
path properly (and fail with ENAMETOOLONG), and to optionally expand long
paths using the '\\?\' file namespace prefix. Short paths will not be
modified, so we don't need to worry about device names (NUL, CON, AUX).
Contrary to MSDN docs, the GetFullPathNameW function doesn't seem to be
limited to MAX_PATH (at least not on Win7), so we can use it to do the
heavy lifting of the conversion (translate '/' to '\', eliminate '.' and
'..', and make an absolute path).
Add long path error checking to xutftowcs_path for APIs with hard MAX_PATH
limit.
Add a new MAX_LONG_PATH constant and xutftowcs_long_path function for APIs
that support long paths.
While improved error checking is always active, long paths support must be
explicitly enabled via 'core.longpaths' option. This is to prevent end
users to shoot themselves in the foot by checking out files that Windows
Explorer, cmd/bash or their favorite IDE cannot handle.
Test suite:
Test the case is when the full pathname length of a dir is close
to 260 (MAX_PATH).

Add a macro to mark code sections that only read from the file system,
along with a config option and documentation.
This facilitates implementation of relatively simple file system level
caches without the need to synchronize with the file system.
Enable read-only sections for 'git status' and preload_index.

Atomic append on windows is only supported on local disk files, and it may
cause errors in other situations, e.g. network file system. If that is the
case, this config option should be used to turn atomic append off.

Reintroduce the 'core.useBuiltinFSMonitor' config setting (originally added
in 0a756b2a25 (fsmonitor: config settings are repository-specific,
2021-03-05)) after its removal from the upstream version of FSMonitor.
Upstream, the 'core.useBuiltinFSMonitor' setting was rendered obsolete by
"overloading" the 'core.fsmonitor' setting to take a boolean value. However,
several applications (e.g., 'scalar') utilize the original config setting,
so it should be preserved for a deprecation period before complete removal:
* if 'core.fsmonitor' is a boolean, the user is correctly using the new
config syntax; do not use 'core.useBuiltinFSMonitor'.
* if 'core.fsmonitor' is unspecified, use 'core.useBuiltinFSMonitor'.
* if 'core.fsmonitor' is a path, override and use the builtin FSMonitor if
'core.useBuiltinFSMonitor' is 'true'; otherwise, use the FSMonitor hook
indicated by the path.
Additionally, for this deprecation period, advise users to switch to using
'core.fsmonitor' to specify their use of the builtin FSMonitor.

This adds support for a new http.sslAutoClientCert config value.
In cURL 7.77 or later the schannel backend does not automatically send
client certificates from the Windows Certificate Store anymore.
This config value is only used if http.sslBackend is set to "schannel",
and can be used to opt in to the old behavior and force cURL to send
client certificates.

The native Windows HTTPS backend is based on Secure Channel which lets
the caller decide how to handle revocation checking problems caused by
missing information in the certificate or offline CRL distribution
points.
Unfortunately, cURL chose to handle these problems differently than
OpenSSL by default: while OpenSSL happily ignores those problems
(essentially saying "¯\_(ツ)_/¯"), the Secure Channel backend will error
out instead.
As a remedy, the "no revoke" mode was introduced, which turns off
revocation checking altogether. This is a bit heavy-handed. We support
this via the `http.schannelCheckRevoke` setting.
In https://github.com/curl/curl/pull/4981, we contributed an opt-in
"best effort" strategy that emulates what OpenSSL seems to do.
In Git for Windows, we actually want this to be the default. This patch
makes it so, introducing it as a new value for the
`http.schannelCheckRevoke" setting, which now becmes a tristate: it
accepts the values "false", "true" or "best-effort" (defaulting to the
last one).

Since commit 0c499ea60f the send-pack builtin uses the side-band-64k
capability if advertised by the server.
Unfortunately this breaks pushing over the dump git protocol if used
over a network connection.
The detailed reasons for this breakage are (by courtesy of Jeff Preshing,
quoted from ttps://groups.google.com/d/msg/msysgit/at8D7J-h7mw/eaLujILGUWoJ):
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
MinGW wraps Windows sockets in CRT file descriptors in order to mimic the
functionality of POSIX sockets. This causes msvcrt.dll to treat sockets as
Installable File System (IFS) handles, calling ReadFile, WriteFile,
DuplicateHandle and CloseHandle on them. This approach works well in simple
cases on recent versions of Windows, but does not support all usage patterns.
In particular, using this approach, any attempt to read & write concurrently
on the same socket (from one or more processes) will deadlock in a scenario
where the read waits for a response from the server which is only invoked after
the write. This is what send_pack currently attempts to do in the use_sideband
codepath.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
The new config option "sendpack.sideband" allows to override the side-band-64k
capability of the server, and thus makes the dump git protocol work.
Other transportation methods like ssh and http/https still benefit from
the sideband channel, therefore the default value of "sendpack.sideband"
is still true.
