In 0041797449 (vimdiff: new implementation with layout support,
2022-03-30), we introduced a completely new implementation of the
`vimdiff` backend for `git mergetool`.
In this implementation, we no longer call `vim` directly but we
accumulate in the variable `FINAL_CMD` an arbitrary number of commands
for `vim` to execute, which necessitates the use of `eval` to split the
commands properly into multiple command-line arguments.
That same `eval` command also needs to pass the paths to `vim`, and
while it looks as if they are quoted correctly, that quoting only
reaches the `eval` instruction and is lost after that, therefore paths
that contain whitespace characters (or other characters that are
interpreted by the POSIX shell) are handled incorrectly.
This is a simple reproducer:
git init -b main bam-merge-fail
cd bam-merge-fail
echo a>"a file.txt"
git add "a file.txt"
git commit -m "added 'a file.txt'"
echo b>"a file.txt"
git add "a file.txt"
git commit -m "diverged b 'a file.txt'"
git checkout -b c HEAD~
echo c>"a file.txt"
git add "a file.txt"
git commit -m "diverged c 'a file.txt'"
git checkout main
git merge c
git mergetool --tool=vimdiff
With Git v2.37.0/v2.37.1, this will open 7 buffers, not four, and not
display the correct contents at all.
To fix this, let's not expand the variables containing the path
parameters before passing them to the `eval` command, but let that
command expand the variables instead.
This fixes https://github.com/git-for-windows/git/issues/3945

This is a backport of d051ed77ee (.github/workflows/main.yml: run
static-analysis on bionic, 2021-02-08) to the Azure Pipeline.
When Azure Pipelines' build agents transitioned 'ubuntu-latest' from
18.04 to 20.04, it broke our `static-analysis` job, since Coccinelle
isn't available on Ubuntu focal (it is only available in the universe
suite).
Until Coccinelle can be installed from 20.04's main suite, pin the
static-analysis build to run on 18.04, where it can be installed by
default.

... so that we can test a MinGit backport in a private repository (with
GitHub Actions, minutes and parallel jobs are limited way more than with
Azure Pipelines in private repositories).
In this commit, we reinstate the exact version of `azure-pipelines.yml`
as 6081d3898f (ci: retire the Azure Pipelines definition, 2020-04-11)
deleted.
Naturally, many adjustments are required to make it work again. Some of
the changes are actually outside of that file (such as the
`runs_on_pool` changes that are needed in the Azure Pipelines part of
`ci/lib.sh`) and they were made in the commits leading up to this here
commit.
However, other adjustments are required in the `azure-pipelines.yml`
file itself, and for ease of review (read: to build confidence in those
changes) they will be made in subsequent, individual commits that
explain the intent, context, implementation and justification like every
good commit message should do.

In 78d5e4cfb4 (tests: refactor --write-junit-xml code, 2022-05-21),
this developer refactored the `--write-junit-xml` code a bit, including
the part where the current test case's title was used in a `set`
invocation, but failed to account for the fact that some test cases'
titles start with a long option, which the `set` misinterprets as being
intended for parsing.
Let's fix this by using the `set -- <...>` form.

When sorting the output of `git shortlog` by count, a list of authors in
alphabetical order is then sorted by contribution count. Obviously, the
idea is to maintain the alphabetical order for items with identical
contribution count.
At the moment, this job is performed by `qsort()`. As that function is
not guaranteed to implement a stable sort algorithm, this can lead to
inconsistent and/or surprising behavior: items with identical
contribution count could lose their alphabetical sub-order.
The `qsort()` in MS Visual C's runtime does _not_ implement a stable
sort algorithm, and under certain circumstances this even causes a test
failure in t4201.21 "shortlog can match multiple groups", where two
authors both are listed with 2 contributions, and are listed in inverse
alphabetical order.
Let's instead use the stable sort provided by `git_stable_qsort()` to
avoid this inconsistency.
This is a companion to 2049b8dc65 (diffcore_rename(): use a stable sort,
2019-09-30).

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`.

These are Git for Windows' Git GUI and gitk patches. We will have to

the gitk maintainer keeps a very low profile on the Git mailing list,
too).

Rather than using private IFTTT Applets that send mails to this
maintainer whenever a new version of a Git for Windows component was
released, let's use the power of GitHub workflows to make this process
publicly visible.
This workflow monitors the Atom/RSS feeds, and opens a ticket whenever a
new version was released.
Note: Bash sometimes releases multiple patched versions within a few
minutes of each other (i.e. 5.1p1 through 5.1p4, 5.0p15 and 5.0p16). The
MSYS2 runtime also has a similar system. We can address those patches as
a group, so we shouldn't get multiple issues about them.
Note further: We're not acting on newlib releases, OpenSSL alphas, Perl
release candidates or non-stable Perl releases. There's no need to open
issues about them.

On Windows, an absolute POSIX path needs to be turned into a Windows

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.

In e3f7e01b50 (Revert "editor: save and reset terminal after calling
EDITOR", 2021-11-22), we reverted the commit wholesale where the
terminal state would be saved and restored before/after calling an
editor.
The reverted commit was intended to fix a problem with Windows Terminal
where simply calling `vi` would cause problems afterwards.
To fix the problem addressed by the revert, but _still_ keep the problem
with Windows Terminal fixed, let's revert the revert, with a twist: we
restrict the save/restore _specifically_ to the case where `vi` (or
`vim`) is called, and do not do the same for any other editor.
This should still catch the majority of the cases, and will bridge the
time until the original patch is re-done in a way that addresses all
concerns.

The `xutftowcs_path` function canonicalizes absolute paths using GetFullPathNameW.
This canonicalization may change the length of the string (e.g. getting rid of \.\),
which breaks callers that pass the template string in a strbuf and expect the
length of the string to remain the same.
In my particular case, the tmp-objdir code is passing a strbuf to mkdtemp and is
breaking since the strbuf.len is no longer synchronized with strlen(strbuf.buf).
