The Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL) version 2 allows to use `chmod` on
NTFS volumes provided that they are mounted with metadata enabled (see
https://devblogs.microsoft.com/commandline/chmod-chown-wsl-improvements/
for details), for example:
$ chmod 0755 /mnt/d/test/a.sh
In order to facilitate better collaboration between the Windows
version of Git and the WSL version of Git, we can make the Windows
version of Git also support reading and writing NTFS file modes
in a manner compatible with WSL.
Since this slightly slows down operations where lots of files are
created (such as an initial checkout), this feature is only enabled when
`core.WSLCompat` is set to true. Note that you also have to set
`core.fileMode=true` in repositories that have been initialized without
enabling WSL compatibility.
There are several ways to enable metadata loading for NTFS volumes
in WSL, one of which is to modify `/etc/wsl.conf` by adding:
```
[automount]
enabled = true
options = "metadata,umask=027,fmask=117"
```
And reboot WSL.
It can also be enabled temporarily by this incantation:
$ sudo umount /mnt/c &&
sudo mount -t drvfs C: /mnt/c -o metadata,uid=1000,gid=1000,umask=22,fmask=111
It's important to note that this modification is compatible with, but
does not depend on WSL. The helper functions in this commit can operate
independently and functions normally on devices where WSL is not
installed or properly configured.

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'.

winuser.h contains the definition of RT_MANIFEST that our LLVM based
toolchain needs to understand that we want to embed
compat/win32/git.manifest as an application manifest. It currently just
embeds it as additional data that Windows doesn't understand.
This also helps our GCC based toolchain understand that we only want one
copy embedded. It currently embeds one working assembly manifest and one
nearly identical, but useless copy as additional data.
This also teaches our Visual Studio based buildsystems to pick up the
manifest file from git.rc. This means we don't have to explicitly specify
it in contrib/buildsystems/Generators/Vcxproj.pm anymore. Slightly
counter-intuitively this also means we have to explicitly tell Cmake
not to embed a default manifest.

In Git-for-Windows, work on using ARM64 has progressed. The
commit 2d94b77b27 (cmake: allow building for Windows/ARM64, 2020-12-04)
failed to notice that /compat/vcbuild/vcpkg_install.bat will default to
using the "x64-windows" architecture for the vcpkg installation if not set,
but CMake is not told of this default. Commit 635b6d99b3 (vcbuild: install
ARM64 dependencies when building ARM64 binaries, 2020-01-31) later updated
vcpkg_install.bat to accept an arch (%1) parameter, but retained the default.
This default is neccessary for the use case where the project directory is
opened directly in Visual Studio, which will find and build a CMakeLists.txt
file without any parameters, thus expecting use of the default setting.

Git's regular Makefile mentions that HOST_CPU should be defined when cross-compiling Git: 37796bca76/Makefile (L438-L439)
This is then used to set the GIT_HOST_CPU variable when compiling Git: 37796bca76/Makefile (L1337-L1341)
Then, when the user runs `git version --build-options`, it returns that value: 37796bca76/help.c (L658)
This commit adds the same functionality to the CMake configuration. Users can now set -DHOST_CPU= to set the target architecture.

CMake adjustments for recent changes around unit tests.
* jc/cmake-unit-test-updates:
cmake: generalize the handling of the `UNIT_TEST_OBJS` list
cmake: stop looking for `REFTABLE_TEST_OBJS` in the Makefile
cmake: rename clar-related variables to avoid confusion
A few usability fixes to "git jump" (in contrib/).
* jk/jump-quickfix-fixes:
git-jump: ignore deleted files in diff mode
git-jump: always specify column 1 for diff entries
In a15d4465a9 (cmake: also build unit tests, 2023-09-25), I
accommodated the CMake definition. Seeing that a `UNIT_TEST_OBJS` list
was introduced that was built by transforming the `UNIT_TEST_PROGRAMS`
list and then adding a single, hard-coded file
("t/unit-tests/test-lib.c"), I decided to hard-code that in the CMake
definition, too.
The reason why I hard-coded it instead of imitating the
`parse_makefile_for_sources()` paradigm that was used elsewhere when
using the `Makefile` as source of truth for given lists of files: This
function expects _only_ hard-coded values, and that transformed
`UNIT_TEST_PROGRAMS` list complicated everything.
In 872721538c (cmake: fix build of `t-oidtree`, 2024-07-12), I
accommodated the CMake definition again, after seeing that the
`UNIT_TEST_OBJS` was still defined via that transformed list but now
appending _two_ hard-coded files ("t/unit-tests/lib-oid.c" joined the
fray).
In 428672a3b1 (Makefile: stop listing test library objects twice,
2024-09-16), the `Makefile` was changed so that `UNIT_TEST_OBJS` is
finally only constructed using hard-coded file names just like the other
`*_OBJS` variables. I missed that and therefore did not adjust the CMake
definition. Besides, the code was working, so there was no real need to
adjust it.
With a4f50bb1e9 (t/unit-tests: introduce reftable library, 2024-09-16),
however, the `UNIT_TEST_OBJS` list became a trio, and the CMake
definition has to be adjusted again. Now that we can use the
`parse_makefile_for_sources()` function without many complications,
let's do that.

If you do something like this:
rm file_a
echo change >file_b
git jump diff
then we'll generate two quickfix entries for the diff, one for each
file. But the one for the deleted file is rather pointless. There's no
content to show since the file is gone, and in fact we open the editor
with the path /dev/null!
In vim, at least, the result is a confusing annoyance: the editor opens
with an empty buffer, and you have to skip past it to the useful
quickfix entry (after scratching your head and figuring out that no,
nothing is broken).
Let's skip such entries entirely. There's nothing useful to show, since
the point is that the file has been deleted.
It is possible that you could be doing a diff whose post-image is not
the working tree, and then you'd perhaps be jumping to the deleted
content (or at least something that was in the same spot). But I don't
think it's worth worrying about that case. For one thing, using git-jump
for such diffs is a bad idea in general, as it's going to sometimes move
you to the wrong spot. And two, a deletion is always going to have one
hunk starting at line 1, which is not that interesting to jump to in the
first place.
Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net>

When we generate a quickfix entry for a diff hunk, we provide just the
filename and line number along with the content, like:
file:1: contents of the line
This can be a problem if the line itself looks like a quickfix header.
For example (and this is adapted from a real-world case that bit me):
echo 'static_lease 10:11:12:13:14:15:16 10.0.0.1' >file
git add file
echo change >file
produces:
file:1: static_lease 10:11:12:13:14:15:16 10.0.0.1
which is ambiguous. It could be line 1 of "file", or line 11 of the file
"file:1: static_lease 10", and so on. In the case of vim's default
config, it seems to prefer the latter (you can configure "errorformat"
with a variety of patterns, but out of the box it matches some common
ones).
One easy way to fix this is to provide a column number, like:
file:1:1: static_lease 10:11:12:13:14:15:16 10.0.0.1
which causes vim to prefer line 1 of "file" again (due to the preference
order of the various patterns in the default errorformat).
There are other options. For example, at least in my version of vim,
wrapping the file in quotation marks like:
"file":1: static_lease 10:11:12:13:14:15:16 10.0.0.1
also works. That perhaps would the right thing even if you had the silly
file name "file:1:1: foo 10". But it's not clear what would happen if
you had a filename with quotes in it.
This feature is inherently scraping text, and there's bound to be some
ambiguities. I don't think it's worth worrying too much about unlikely
filenames, as its the file content that is more likely to introduce
unexpected characters.
So let's just go with the extra ":1" column specifier. We know this is
supported everywhere, as git-jump's "grep" mode already uses it (and
thus doesn't exhibit the same problem).
The "merge" mode is mostly immune to this, as it only matches "<<<<<<<"
conflict marker lines. It's possible of course to have a marker that
says "foo 10:11" later in the line, but in practice these will only have
branches and perhaps file names, so it's probably not worth worrying
about (and fixing it would involve passing --column to the system grep,
which may not be portable).
I also gave some thought as to whether we could put something more
useful than "1" in the column field for diffs. In theory we could find
the first changed character of the line, but this is tricky in practice.
You'd have to correlate before/after lines of the hunk to decide what
changed. So:
-this is a foo line
+this is a bar line
is easy (column 11). But:
-this is a foo line
+another line
+this is a bar line
is harder.
This commit certainly doesn't preclude trying to do something more
clever later, but it's a much deeper rabbit hole than just fixing the
syntactic ambiguity.

When using colors, the shell needs to identify 0-width substrings
in PS1 - such as color escape sequences - when calculating the
on-screen width of the prompt.
Until now, we used the form %F{<color>} in zsh - which it knows is
0-width, or otherwise use standard SGR esc sequences wrapped between
byte values 1 and 2 (SOH, STX) as 0-width start/end markers, which
bash/readline identify as such.
But now that more shells are supported, the standard SGR sequences
typically work, but the SOH/STX markers might not be identified.
This commit adds support for vars GIT_PS1_COLOR_{PRE,POST} which
set custom 0-width markers or disable the markers.

With one big exception, git-prompt.sh should now be both almost posix
compliant, and also compatible with most (posix-ish) shells.
That exception is the use of "local" vars in functions, which happens
extensively in the current code, and is not simple to replace with
posix compliant code (but also not impossible).
Luckily, almost all shells support "local" as used by the current
code, with the notable exception of ksh93[u+m], but also the Schily
minimal posix sh (pbosh), and yash in posix mode.
See assessment below that "local" is likely the only blocker in those.
So except mainly ksh93, git-prompt.sh now works in most shells:
- bash, zsh, dash since at least 0.5.8, free/net bsd sh, busybox-ash,
mksh, openbsd sh, pdksh(!), Schily extended Bourne sh (bosh), yash.
which is quite nice.
As an anecdote, replacing the 1st line in __git_ps1() (local exit=$?)
with these 2 makes it work in all tested shells, even without "local":
# handles only 0/1 args for simplicity. needs +5 LOC for any $#
__git_e=$?; local exit="$__git_e" 2>/dev/null ||
{(eval 'local() { export "$@"; }'; __git_ps1 "$@"); return "$__git_e"; }
Explanation:
If the shell doesn't have the command "local", define our own
function "local" which instead does plain (global) assignents.
Then use __git_ps1 in a subshell to not clober the caller's vars.
This happens to work because currently there are no name conflicts
(shadow) at the code, initial value is not assumed (i.e. always
doing either 'local x=...' or 'local x;... x=...'), and assigned
initial values are quoted (local x="$y"), preventing word split and
glob expansion (i.e. assignment context is not assumed).
The last two (always init, quote values) seem to be enough to use
"local" portably if supported, and otherwise shells indeed differ.
Uses "eval", else shells with "local" may reject it during parsing.
We don't need "export", but it's smaller than writing our own loop.
While cute, this approach is not really sustainable because all the
vars become global, which is hard to maintain without conflicts
(but hey, it currently has no conflicts - without even trying...).
However, regardless of being an anecdote, it provides some support to
the assessment that "local" is the only blocker in those shells.

$'...' is new in POSIX (2024), and some shells support it in recent

However, there are still enough shells which don't support it, and
it's cheap to use an alternative form which works in all shells,
so let's do that instead of dismissing it as "it's compliant".
It was agreed to use one form rather than $'...' where supported and
fallback otherwise.

The issues which this commit fixes are unlikely to be broken
in real life, but the fixes improve correctness, and would prevent
bugs in some uncommon cases, such as weird IFS values.
Listing some portability guidelines here for future reference.
I'm leaving it to someone else to decide whether to include
it in the file itself, place it as a new file, or not.
---------
The command "local" is non standard, but is allowed in this file:
- Quote initialization if it can expand (local x="$y"). See below.
- Don't assume initial value after "local x". Either initialize it
(local x=..), or set before first use (local x;.. x=..; <use $x>).
(between shells, "local x" can unset x, or inherit it, or do x= )
Other non-standard features beyond "local" are to be avoided.
Use the standard "test" - [...] instead of non-standard [[...]] .
--------
Quotes (some portability things, but mainly general correctness):
Quotes prevent tilde-expansion of some unquoted literal tildes (~).
If the expansion is undesirable, quotes would ensure that.
Tilds expanded: a=~user:~/ ; echo ~user ~/dir
not expanded: t="~"; a=${t}user b=\~foo~; echo "~user" $t/dir
But the main reason for quoting is to prevent IFS field splitting
(which also coalesces IFS chars) and glob expansion in parts which
contain parameter/arithmetic expansion or command substitution.
"Simple command" (POSIX term) is assignment[s] and/or command [args].
Examples:
foo=bar # one assignment
foo=$bar x=y # two assignments
foo bar # command, no assignments
x=123 foo bar # one assignment and a command
The assignments part is not IFS-split or glob-expanded.
The command+args part does get IFS field split and glob expanded,
but only at unquoted expanded/substituted parts.
In the command+args part, expanded/substituted values must be quoted.
(the commands here are "[" and "local"):
Good: [ "$mode" = yes ]; local s="*" x="$y" e="$?" z="$(cmd ...)"
Bad: [ $mode = yes ]; local s=* x=$y e=$? z=$(cmd...)
The arguments to "local" do look like assignments, but they're not
the assignment part of a simple command; they're at the command part.
Still at the command part, no need to quote non-expandable values:
Good: local x= y=yes; echo OK
OK, but not required: local x="" y="yes"; echo "OK"
But completely empty (NULL) arguments must be quoted:
foo "" is not the same as: foo
Assignments in simple commands - with or without an actual command,
don't need quoting becase there's no IFS split or glob expansion:
Good: s=* a=$b c=$(cmd...)${x# foo }${y- } [cmd ...]
It's also OK to use double quotes, but not required.
This behavior (no IFS/glob) is called "assignment context", and
"local" does not behave with assignment context in some shells,
hence we require quotes when using "local" - for compatibility.
The value between 'case' and 'in' doesn't IFS-split/glob-expand:
Good: case * $foo $(cmd...) in ... ; esac
identical: case "* $foo $(cmd...)" in ... ; esac
Nested quotes in command substitution are fine, often necessary:
Good: echo "$(foo... "$x" "$(bar ...)")"
Nested quotes in substring ops are legal, and sometimes needed
to prevent interpretation as a pattern, but not the most readable:
Legal: foo "${x#*"$y" }"
Nested quotes in "maybe other value" subst are invalid, unnecessary:
Good: local x="${y- }"; foo "${z:+ $a }"
Bad: local x="${y-" "}"; foo "${z:+" $a "}"
Outer/inner quotes in "maybe other value" have different use cases:
"${x-$y}" always one quoted arg: "$x" if x is set, else "$y".
${x+"$x"} one quoted arg "$x" if x is set, else no arg at all.
Unquoted $x is similar to the second case, but it would get split
into few arguments if it includes any of the IFS chars.
Assignments don't need the outer quotes, and the braces delimit the
value, so nested quotes can be avoided, for readability:
a=$(foo "$x") a=${x#*"$y" } c=${y- }; bar "$a" "$b" "$c"

The existing [[...]] tests were either already valid as standard [...]
tests, or only required minimal retouch:
Notes:
- [[...]] doesn't do field splitting and glob expansion, so $var
or $(cmd...) don't need quoting, but [... does need quotes.
- [[ X == Y ]] when Y is a string is same as [ X = Y ], but if Y is
a pattern, then we need: case X in Y)... ; esac .
- [[ ... && ... ]] was replaced with [ ... ] && [ ... ] .
- [[ -o <zsh-option> ]] requires [[...]], so put it in "eval" and only
eval it in zsh, so other shells would not abort on syntax error
(posix says [[ has unspecified results, shells allowed to reject it)
- ((x++)) was changed into x=$((x+1)) (yeah, not [[...]] ...)

Except bash/zsh, nearly all shells failed load on syntax errors here.
Now:
- The svn remotes are a list of newline-terminated values.
- The 2nd-to-last word is extracted using standard shell substrings.
- All shells can digest the svn-upstream code.
While using shell field splitting to extract the word is simple, and
doesn't even need non-standard code, e.g. set -- $(git log -1 ...),
it would have the same issues as the old array code: it depends on IFS
which we don't control, and it's subject to glob-expansion, e.g. if
the message happens to include * or **/* (as this commit message just
did), then the array could get huge. This was not great.
Now it uses standard shell substrings, and we know the exact delimiter
to expect, because it's the match from our grep just one line earlier.
The new word extraction code also fixes svn-upstream in zsh, because
previously it used arr[len-2], but because in zsh, unlike bash, array
subscripts are 1-based, it incorrectly extracted the 3rd-to-last word.
symptom: missing upstream status in a git-svn repo: u=, u+N-M, etc.
The breakage in zsh is surprising, because it was last touched by
commit d0583da838 (prompt: fix show upstream with svn and zsh),
claiming to fix exactly that. However, it only mentions syntax fixes.
It's unclear if behavior was fixed too. But it was broken, now fixed.
Note LF=$'\n' and then using $LF instead of $'\n' few times.
A future commit will add fallback for shells without $'...', so this
would be the only line to touch instead of replacing every $'\n' .
Shells which could run the previous array code:
- bash
Shells which have arrays but were broken anyway:
- zsh: 1-based subscript
- ksh93: no "local" (the new code can't fix this part...)
- mksh, openbsd sh, pdksh: failed load on syntax error: "for ((...))".
More shells which Failed to load due to syntax error:
- dash, free/net bsd sh, busybox-ash, Schily Bourne shell, yash.

First use is in the form: local var; ...; var=$var$whatever...
If the variable was unset (as bash and others do after "local x"),
then it would error if set -u is in effect.
Also, many shells inherit the existing value after "local var"
without init, but in this case it's unlikely to have a prior value.
Now we initialize it.
(local var= is enough, but local var="" is the custom in this file)

Here-documend is standard, and works in all shells.
Both here-string and here-doc add final newline, which is important
in this case, because $output is without final newline, but we do
want "read" to succeed on the last line as well.
Shells which support here-string:
- bash, zsh, mksh, ksh93, yash (non-posix-mode).
shells which don't, and got fixed:
- ash-derivatives (dash, free/net bsd sh, busybox-ash).
- pdksh, openbsd sh.
- All Schily Bourne shell variants.

The credential helper to talk to OSX keychain sometimes sent
garbage bytes after the username, which has been corrected.
* jk/osxkeychain-username-is-nul-terminated:
credential/osxkeychain: respect NUL terminator in username
This patch fixes a case where git-credential-osxkeychain might output
uninitialized bytes to stdout.
We need to get the username string from a system API using
CFStringGetCString(). To do that, we get the max size for the string
from CFStringGetMaximumSizeForEncoding(), allocate a buffer based on
that, and then read into it. But then we print the entire buffer to
stdout, including the trailing NUL and any extra bytes which were not
needed. Instead, we should stop at the NUL.
This code comes from 9abe31f5f1 (osxkeychain: replace deprecated
SecKeychain API, 2024-02-17). The bug was probably overlooked back then
because this code is only used as a fallback when we can't get the
string via CFStringGetCStringPtr(). According to Apple's documentation:
Whether or not this function returns a valid pointer or NULL depends
on many factors, all of which depend on how the string was created and
its properties.
So it's not clear how we could make a test for this, and we'll have to
rely on manually testing on a system that triggered the bug in the first
place.

When the `oidtree` test helper was turned into a unit test, a new
`lib-oid` source file was added as dependency. This was only done in the
Makefile so far, but also needs to be done in the CMake definition.
This is a companion of ed54840872 (t/: migrate helper/test-oidtree.c
to unit-tests/t-oidtree.c, 2024-06-08).

The credential helper that talks with osx keychain learned to avoid
storing back the authentication material it just got received from
the keychain.
