The mingw-w64 GCC seems to link implicitly to libwinpthread, which does
implement a pthread emulation (that is more complete than Git's). Let's
keep preferring Git's.
To avoid linker errors where it thinks that the `pthread_self` and the
`pthread_create` symbols are defined twice, let's give our version a
`win32_` prefix, just like we already do for `pthread_join()`.

Since GNU make 4.4 the semantics of the $(MAKEFLAGS) variable has
changed in a backward-incompatible way, as its "NEWS" file notes:
Previously only simple (one-letter) options were added to the MAKEFLAGS
variable that was visible while parsing makefiles. Now, all options are
available in MAKEFLAGS. If you want to check MAKEFLAGS for a one-letter
option, expanding "$(firstword -$(MAKEFLAGS))" is a reliable way to return
the set of one-letter options which can be examined via findstring, etc.
This upstream change meant that e.g.:
make man
Would become very noisy, because in shared.mak we rely on extracting
"s" from the $(MAKEFLAGS), which now contains long options like
"--jobserver-auth=fifo:<path>", which we'll conflate with the "-s"
option.
So, let's change this idiom we've been carrying since [1], [2] and [3]
as the "NEWS" suggests.
Note that the "-" in "-$(MAKEFLAGS)" is critical here, as the variable
will always contain leading whitespace if there are no short options,
but long options are present. Without it e.g. "make --debug=all" would
yield "--debug=all" as the first word, but with it we'll get "-" as
intended. Then "-s" for "-s", "-Bs" for "-s -B" etc.

This topic branch re-adds the deprecated --stdin/-z options to `git

We offered this in MinGit to applications that wanted a safer way to

Instead of `--stdin`, `--pathspec-from-file=-` should be used, and

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

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).

The TerminateProcess() function does not actually leave the child
processes any chance to perform any cleanup operations. This is bad
insofar as Git itself expects its signal handlers to run.
A symptom is e.g. a left-behind .lock file that would not be left behind
if the same operation was run, say, on Linux.
To remedy this situation, we use an obscure trick: we inject a thread
into the process that needs to be killed and to let that thread run the
ExitProcess() function with the desired exit status. Thanks J Wyman for
describing this trick.
The advantage is that the ExitProcess() function lets the atexit
handlers run. While this is still different from what Git expects (i.e.
running a signal handler), in practice Git sets up signal handlers and
atexit handlers that call the same code to clean up after itself.
In case that the gentle method to terminate the process failed, we still
fall back to calling TerminateProcess(), but in that case we now also
make sure that processes spawned by the spawned process are terminated;
TerminateProcess() does not give the spawned process a chance to do so
itself.
Please note that this change only affects how Git for Windows tries to
terminate processes spawned by Git's own executables. Third-party
software that *calls* Git and wants to terminate it *still* need to make
sure to imitate this gentle method, otherwise this patch will not have
any effect.

On Windows, the current working directory is pretty much guaranteed to
contain a colon. If we feed that path to CVS, it mistakes it for a
separator between host and port, though.
This has not been a problem so far because Git for Windows uses MSYS2's
Bash using a POSIX emulation layer that also pretends that the current
directory is a Unix path (at least as long as we're in a shell script).
However, that is rather limiting, as Git for Windows also explores other
ports of other Unix shells. One of those is BusyBox-w32's ash, which is
a native port (i.e. *not* using any POSIX emulation layer, and certainly
not emulating Unix paths).
So let's just detect if there is a colon in $PWD and punt in that case.
Signed-off-by: Johannes Schindelin <johannes.schindelin@gmx.de>
Git for Windows uses MSYS2's Bash to run the test suite, which comes
with benefits but also at a heavy price: on the plus side, MSYS2's
POSIX emulation layer allows us to continue pretending that we are on a
Unix system, e.g. use Unix paths instead of Windows ones, yet this is
bought at a rather noticeable performance penalty.
There *are* some more native ports of Unix shells out there, though,
most notably BusyBox-w32's ash. These native ports do not use any POSIX
emulation layer (or at most a *very* thin one, choosing to avoid
features such as fork() that are expensive to emulate on Windows), and
they use native Windows paths (usually with forward slashes instead of
backslashes, which is perfectly legal in almost all use cases).
And here comes the problem: with a $PWD looking like, say,
C:/git-sdk-64/usr/src/git/t/trash directory.t5813-proto-disable-ssh
Git's test scripts get quite a bit confused, as their assumptions have
been shattered. Not only does this path contain a colon (oh no!), it
also does not start with a slash.
This is a problem e.g. when constructing a URL as t5813 does it:
ssh://remote$PWD. Not only is it impossible to separate the "host" from
the path with a $PWD as above, even prefixing $PWD by a slash won't
work, as /C:/git-sdk-64/... is not a valid path.
As a workaround, detect when $PWD does not start with a slash on
Windows, and simply strip the drive prefix, using an obscure feature of
Windows paths: if an absolute Windows path starts with a slash, it is
implicitly prefixed by the drive prefix of the current directory. As we
are talking about the current directory here, anyway, that strategy
works.

When t5605 tries to verify that files are hardlinked (or that they are
not), it uses the `-links` option of the `find` utility.
BusyBox' implementation does not support that option, and BusyBox-w32's
lstat() does not even report the number of hard links correctly (for
performance reasons).
So let's just switch to a different method that actually works on
Windows.

While it may seem super convenient to some old Unix hands to simpy
require Perl to be available when running the test suite, this is a
major hassle on Windows, where we want to verify that Perl is not,
actually, required in a NO_PERL build.
As a super ugly workaround, we "install" a script into /usr/bin/perl
reading like this:
#!/bin/sh
# We'd much rather avoid requiring Perl altogether when testing
# an installed Git. Oh well, that's why we cannot have nice
# things.
exec c:/git-sdk-64/usr/bin/perl.exe "$@"
The problem with that is that BusyBox assumes that the #! line in a
script refers to an executable, not to a script. So when it encounters
the line #!/usr/bin/perl in t5532's proxy-get-cmd, it barfs.
Let's help this situation by simply executing the Perl script with the
"interpreter" specified explicitly.

Traditionally, Git for Windows' SDK uses Bash as its default shell.
However, other Unix shells are available, too. Most notably, the Win32
port of BusyBox comes with `ash` whose `pwd` command already prints
Windows paths as Git for Windows wants them, while there is not even a
`builtin` command.
Therefore, let's be careful not to override `pwd` unless we know that
the `builtin` command is available.

BusyBox-w32 is a true Win32 application, i.e. it does not come with a
POSIX emulation layer.
That also means that it does *not* use the Unix convention of separating
the entries in the PATH variable using colons, but semicolons.
However, there are also BusyBox ports to Windows which use a POSIX
emulation layer such as Cygwin's or MSYS2's runtime, i.e. using colons
as PATH separators.
As a tell-tale, let's use the presence of semicolons in the PATH
variable: on Unix, it is highly unlikely that it contains semicolons,
and on Windows (without POSIX emulation), it is virtually guaranteed, as
everybody should have both $SYSTEMROOT and $SYSTEMROOT/system32 in their
PATH.

It is convenient to assume that everybody who wants to build & test Git
has access to a working `iconv` executable (after all, we already pretty

However, that limits esoteric test scenarios such as Git for Windows',
where an end user installation has to ship with `iconv` for the sole
purpose of being testable. That payload serves no other purpose.

allocation limit by setting the environment variable GIT_ALLOC_LIMIT to
zero when calling the helper.

BusyBox comes with a ton of applets ("applet" being the identical
concept to Git's "builtins"). And similar to Git's builtins, the applets
can be called via `busybox <command>`, or the BusyBox executable can be
copied/hard-linked to the command name.
The similarities do not end here. Just as with Git's builtins, it is
problematic that BusyBox' hard-linked applets cannot easily be put into
a .zip file: .zip archives have no concept of hard-links and therefore
would store identical copies (and also extract identical copies,
"inflating" the archive unnecessarily).
To counteract that issue, MinGit already ships without hard-linked
copies of the builtins, and the plan is to do the same with BusyBox'
applets: simply ship busybox.exe as single executable, without
hard-linked applets.
To accommodate that, Git is being taught by this commit a very special
trick, exploiting the fact that it is possible to call an executable
with a command-line whose argv[0] is different from the executable's
name: when `sh` is to be spawned, and no `sh` is found in the PATH, but
busybox.exe is, use that executable (with unchanged argv).
Likewise, if any executable to be spawned is not on the PATH, but
busybox.exe is found, parse the output of `busybox.exe --help` to find
out what applets are included, and if the command matches an included
applet name, use busybox.exe to execute it.

The main idea of this patch is that even if we have to look up the
absolute path of the script, if only the basename was specified as
argv[0], then we should use that basename on the command line, too, not
the absolute path.
This patch will also help with the upcoming patch where we automatically
substitute "sh ..." by "busybox sh ..." if "sh" is not in the PATH but
"busybox" is: we will do that by substituting the actual executable, but
still keep prepending "sh" to the command line.
