From Visual Studio 2015 Code Analysis: Warning C28159 Consider using
'GetTickCount64' instead of 'GetTickCount'.
Reason: GetTickCount overflows roughly every 49 days. Code that does not
take that into account can loop indefinitely. GetTickCount64 operates on
64 bit values and does not have that problem.

For regular debugging, it is pretty helpful when a debug assertion in a
running application triggers a window that offers to start the debugger.
However, when running the test suite, it is not so helpful, in
particular when the debug assertions are then suppressed anyway because
we disable the invalid parameter checking (via invalidcontinue.obj, see
the comment in config.mak.uname about that object for more information).
So let's simply disable that window in Debug Mode (it is already
disabled in Release Mode).

The entire idea of generating the VS solution makes only sense if we
generate it via Continuous Integration; otherwise potential users would
still have to download the entire Git for Windows SDK.
So let's just add a target in the Makefile that can be used to generate
said solution; The generated files will then be committed so that they
can be pushed to a branch ready to check out by Visual Studio users.
To make things even more useful, we also generate and commit other files
that are required to run the test suite, such as templates and
bin-wrappers: with this, developers can run the test suite in a regular
Git Bash (that is part of a regular Git for Windows installation) after
building the solution in Visual Studio.

Visual Studio has this very neat feature that you can get dependencies in

what NuGet packages it needs. These dependencies can then be fetched via
right-clicking the solution in the Solution Explorer and clicking the
"Restore NuGet Packages" entry.
This feature is so neat, in fact, that we want to support it in Git for

Rather than swallowing the errors, it is better to have them in a file.
To make it obvious what this is about, use the file name
'msvc-build-makedryerrors.txt'.
Further, if the output is empty, simply delete that file. As we target
Git for Windows' SDK (which, unlike its predecessor msysGit, offers
Perl versions newer than 5.8), we can use the quite readable syntax
`if -f -z $ErrsFile` (available in Perl >=5.10).
Note that the file will contain the new values of the GIT_VERSION

are omitted if the release is tagged and indentically defined in

The short and sweet PREFIX can be confused when used in many places.
Rename both usages to better describe their purpose. EXEC_CMD_PREFIX is
used in full to disambiguate it from the nearby GIT_EXEC_PATH.
The PREFIX in sideband.c, while nominally independant of the exec_cmd
PREFIX, does reside within libgit[1], so the definitions would clash
when taken together with a PREFIX given on the command line for use by
exec_cmd.c.
Noticed when compiling Git for Windows using MSVC/Visual Studio [1] which
reports the conflict beteeen the command line definition and the
definition in sideband.c within the libgit project.
[1] the libgit functions are brought into a single sub-project
within the Visual Studio construction script provided in contrib,
and hence uses a single command for both exec_cmd.c and sideband.c.

Teach "add" to use preload-index and fscache features
to improve performance on very large repositories.
During an "add", a call is made to run_diff_files()
which calls check_remove() for each index-entry. This
calls lstat(). On Windows, the fscache code intercepts
the lstat() calls and builds a private cache using the
FindFirst/FindNext routines, which are much faster.
Somewhat independent of this, is the preload-index code
which distributes some of the start-up costs across
multiple threads.
We need to keep the call to read_cache() before parsing the
pathspecs (and hence cannot use the pathspecs to limit any preload)
because parse_pathspec() is using the index to determine whether a
pathspec is, in fact, in a submodule. If we would not read the index
first, parse_pathspec() would not error out on a path that is inside
a submodule, and t7400-submodule-basic.sh would fail with
not ok 47 - do not add files from a submodule
We still want the nice preload performance boost, though, so we simply
call read_cache_preload(&pathspecs) after parsing the pathspecs.

Just like with other Git commands, this option makes it read the paths
from the standard input. It comes in handy when resetting many, many
paths at once and wildcards are not an option (e.g. when the paths are
generated by a tool).
Note: we first parse the entire list and perform the actual reset action
only in a second phase. Not only does this make things simpler, it also
helps performance, as do_diff_cache() traverses the index and the
(sorted) pathspecs in simultaneously to avoid unnecessary lookups.
This feature is marked experimental because it is still under review in
the upstream Git project.

On Windows, strftime() does not silently ignore invalid formats, but
warns about them and then returns 0 and sets errno to EINVAL.
Unfortunately, Git does not expect such a behavior, as it disagrees
with strftime()'s semantics on Linux. As a consequence, Git
misinterprets the return value 0 as "I need more space" and grows the
buffer. As the larger buffer does not fix the format, the buffer grows
and grows and grows until we are out of memory and abort.
Ideally, we would switch off the parameter validation just for
strftime(), but we cannot even override the invalid parameter handler
via _set_thread_local_invalid_parameter_handler() using MINGW because
that function is not declared. Even _set_invalid_parameter_handler(),
which *is* declared, does not help, as it simply does... nothing.
So let's just bite the bullet and override strftime() for MINGW and
abort on an invalid format string. While this does not provide the
best user experience, it is the best we can do.

'make clean', or a 'git clean -dfx' will delete the PM stamp file,

Normally the PM.stamp is recreated by the git/Makefile, except when
a dry-run is requested, for example, as used in the msysgit msvc-build
script which implements the compat/vcbuild/README using
contrib/buildsystems. The script msvc-build is introduced later in this

This is development of the original "[PATCH 4/17] Makefile: a dry-run
can error out if no perl. Document the issue" 2015-06-25,
(http://marc.info/?l=git&m=143519054716960&w=2), which simply documented
the issue and then used NO_PERL to avoid the problem. See follow on
email thread for some discussion.
The purpose of this function is to stat() the files listed in the index
in a multi-threaded fashion. It is called directly after reading the
index in the read_index_preloaded() function.
However, in some cases we may want to separate the index reading from
the preloading step, e.g. in builtin/add.c, where we need to load the
index before we parse the pathspecs (which needs to error out if one of
the pathspecs refers to a path within a submodule, for which the index
must have been read already), and only then will we want to preload,
possibly limited by the just-parsed pathspecs.
So let's just export that function to allow calling it separately.

Ever since 457f08a (git-rev-list: add --bisect-vars option.,
2007-03-21), Git's source code uses the following trick to fool GCC into
*not* warning about uninitialized values:
int value = value;
We use this trick to silence the "warning: ‘x’ is used uninitialized in
this function [-Wuninitialized]" when the variables are not really used
uninitialized (but it is hard for the compiler to determine that).
This trick works well for GCC, and even Clang seems to appease that
workaround.
Not so Visual C. It does realize that this is just a trick to fool it,
and it simply refuses to be fooled.
The only way to silence the warning for Visual C would be to write
something like this:
#pragma warning(suppress: 4700)
int value;
Obviously this is not portable, and neither is that trick that fools
GCC. So let's just introduce a new macro that continues to fool GCC, but
simply initializes the values everywhere else.

When a third-party tool periodically runs `git status` in order to keep
track of the state of the working tree, it is a bad idea to lock the
index: it might interfere with interactive commands executed by the
user, e.g. when the user wants to commit files.
Git for Windows introduced the `--no-lock-index` option a long time ago
to fix that (it made it into Git for Windows v2.9.2(3)) by simply
avoiding to write that file.
The downside is that the periodic `git status` calls will be a little
bit more wasteful because they may have to refresh the index repeatedly,
only to throw away the updates when it exits. This cannot really be
helped, though, as tools wanting to get a periodic update of the status
have no way to predict when the user may want to lock the index herself.
Sadly, a competing approach was submitted (by somebody who apparently
has less work on their plate than this maintainer) that made it into
v2.15.0 but is *different*: instead of a `git status`-only option, it is
an option that comes *before* the Git command and is called differently,
too.
Let's give previous users a chance to upgrade to newer Git for Windows
versions by handling the `--no-lock-index` option, still, though with a
big fat warning.
