These are Git for Windows' Git GUI and gitk patches. We will have to
decide at some point what to do about them, but that's a little lower
priority (as Git GUI seems to be unmaintained for the time being, and
the gitk maintainer keeps a very low profile on the Git mailing list,
too).

This is the branch thicket of patches in Git for Windows that are
considered ready for upstream. To keep them in a ready-to-submit shape,
they are kept as close to the beginning of the branch thicket as
possible.
These changes are necessary to support better Git for Windows' new
auto-update feature.

When using remotes (with git-flow especially), the remote reference names
are almost always wordwrapped in the "list references" window because it's
somewhat narrow by default. It's possible to resize it with a mouse,
but it's annoying to have to do this every time, especially on Windows 10,
where the window border seems to be only one (1) pixel wide, thus making
the grabbing of the window border tricky.

git-gui tries to temporary set GIT_DIR for starting gitk and restore
it back after they are started. But in case of GIT_DIR which was not set
prior to invocation it is not unset after it. This affects commands
which can be later started from that git gui, for example "Git Bash".
Fix it.

Since v2.9.0, Git knows about the config variable core.hookspath
that allows overriding the path to the directory containing the
Git hooks.
Since v2.10.0, the `--git-path` option respects that config
variable, too, so we may just as well use that command.
For Git versions older than v2.5.0 (which was the first version to
support the `--git-path` option for the `rev-parse` command), we
simply fall back to the previous code.

Tcl/Tk 8.6 introduced new events for the cursor left/right keys and
apparently changed the behavior of the previous event.
Let's work around that by using the new events when we are running with
Tcl/Tk 8.6 or later.

"Question?" is maybe not the most informative thing to ask. In the
absence of better information, it is the best we can do, of course.
However, Git for Windows' auto updater just learned the trick to use
git-gui--askyesno to ask the user whether to update now or not. And in
this scripted scenario, we can easily pass a command-line option to
change the window title.
So let's support that with the new `--title <title>` option.

On Windows, there are dramatic problems when a command line grows
beyond PATH_MAX, which is restricted to 8191 characters on XP and
later (according to http://support.microsoft.com/kb/830473).
Work around this by just cutting off the command line at that length
(actually, at a space boundary) in the hope that only negative
refs are chucked: gitk will then do unnecessary work, but that is
still better than flashing the gitk window and exiting with exit
status 5 (which no Windows user is able to make sense of).
The first fix caused Tcl to fail to compile the regexp, see msysGit issue
427. Here is another fix without using regexp, and using a more relaxed
command line length limit to fix the original issue 387.

Assumes file names in git tree objects are UTF-8 encoded.
On most unix systems, the system encoding (and thus the TCL system
encoding) will be UTF-8, so file names will be displayed correctly.
On Windows, it is impossible to set the system encoding to UTF-8.
Changing the TCL system encoding (via 'encoding system ...', e.g. in the
startup code) is explicitly discouraged by the TCL docs.
Change gitk functions dealing with file names to always convert
from and to UTF-8.

Git for Windows 2.x ships with an executable that starts the Git Bash
with all the environment variables and what not properly set up. It is
also adjusted according to the Terminal emulator option chosen when
installing Git for Windows (while `bash.exe --login -i` would always
launch with Windows' default console).
So let's use that executable (usually C:\Program Files\Git\git-bash.exe)
instead of `bash.exe --login -i` if its presence was detected.

When compiling Git with a runtime prefix (so that it can be installed
into any location, finding its libexec/ directory relative to the
location of the `git` executable), it is convenient to provide
"absolute" Unix-y paths e.g. for http.sslCAInfo, and have those absolute
paths be resolved relative to the runtime prefix.
This patch makes it so for Windows. It is up for discussion whether we
want this for other platforms, too, as long as building with
RUNTIME_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.

But we still can introduce a regression test that verifies that this bug

The new test_oid machinery in the test library requires reading
some information from t/oid-info/hash-info and t/oid-info/oid.
The shell logic that reads from these files is sensitive to CRLF
line endings, causing a failure when the test suite is run on a
Windows machine that converts LF to CRLF: the test suite fails
with a "bad hash algorithm" message, but does not record any
failed test cases. This caused CI builds to pass because they
fail only after reporting the failed test cases.
Exclude the files in this folder from this conversion.

When debugging Git, the criss-cross spawning of processes can make
things quite a bit difficult, especially when a Unix shell script is
thrown in the mix that calls a `git.exe` that then segfaults.
To help debugging such things, we introduce the `open_in_gdb()` function
which can be called at a code location where the segfault happens (or as
close as one can get); This will open a new MinTTY window with a GDB
that already attached to the current process.

To support IPv6, Git provided fall back functions for Windows versions that
did not support IPv6. However, as Git dropped support for Windows XP and
prior, those functions are not needed anymore.
Removed those fallbacks by reverting commit[1] and using the functions
directly (without 'ipv6_' prefix).

On a case-insensitive filesystem, such as HFS+ or NTFS, it is possible
