eb5b194b3f git-gui: provide question helper for retry fallback on Windows
Make use of the new environment variable GIT_ASK_YESNO to support the
recently implemented fallback in case unlink, rename or rmdir fail for
files in use on Windows. The added dialog will present a yes/no question
to the the user which will currently be used by the windows compat layer
to let the user retry a failed file operation.

230092cbfd gitk: work around the command line limit on Windows
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.

c32dc63f29 Add a Code of Conduct
It is better to state clearly expectations and intentions than to assume
quietly that everybody agrees.

This Code of Conduct is the Open Code of Conduct as per
http://todogroup.org/opencodeofconduct/ (the only modifications are the
adjustments to reflect that there is no "response team" in addition to the
Git for Windows maintainer, and the addition of the link to the Open Code
of Conduct itself).

fdd901cda5 gitk: Unicode file name support
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.

eb032c94dc mingw: special-case GIT_REDIRECT_STDERR=2>&1
The "2>&1" notation in POSIX shells implies that stderr is redirected to

c3e7520aac mingw: add experimental feature to redirect standard handles
On Windows, file handles need to be marked inheritable when they need to
be used as standard input/output/error handles for a newly spawned
process. The problem with that, of course, is that the "inheritable" flag
is global and therefore can wreak havoc with highly multi-threaded
applications: other spawned processes will *also* inherit those file
handles, despite having *other* input/output/error handles, and never
close the former handles because they do not know about them.

Let's introduce a set of environment variables (GIT_REDIRECT_STDIN and
friends) that point to files, or even better, named pipes and that are
used by the spawned Git process. This helps work around above-mentioned
issue: those named pipes will be opened in a non-inheritable way upon
startup, and no handles are passed around.

df801f3f9f read-cache: use shared perms when writing shared index
Since f6ecc62dbf (write_shared_index(): use tempfile module, 2015-08-10)
write_shared_index() has been using mks_tempfile() to create the
temporary file that will become the shared index.

But even before that, it looks like the functions used to create this
file didn't call adjust_shared_perm(), which means that the shared
index file has always been created with 600 permissions regardless
of the shared permission settings.

Because of that, on repositories created with `git init --shared=all`
and using the split index feature, one gets an error like:

fatal: .git/sharedindex.a52f910b489bc462f187ab572ba0086f7b5157de: index file open failed: Permission denied

when another user performs any operation that reads the shared index.

Call adjust_shared_perm() on the temporary file created by
mks_tempfile() ourselves to adjust the permission bits.

d85d7ecb80 add--interactive: quote commentChar regex
Since c9d961647 (i18n: add--interactive: mark
edit_hunk_manually message for translation, 2016-12-14),
when the user asks to edit a hunk manually, we respect
core.commentChar in generating the edit instructions.
However, when we then strip out comment lines, we use a
simple regex like:

  /^$commentChar/

If your chosen comment character is a regex metacharacter,
then that will behave in a confusing manner ("$", for
instance, would only eliminate blank lines, not actual
comment lines).

We can fix that by telling perl not to respect
metacharacters.

d5addcf522 add--interactive: handle EOF in prompt_yesno
The prompt_yesno function loops indefinitely waiting for a
"y" or "n" response. But it doesn't handle EOF, meaning
that we can end up in an infinite loop of reading EOF from
stdin. One way to simulate that is with:

  echo e | GIT_EDITOR='echo corrupt >' git add -p

Let's break out of the loop and propagate the undef to the
caller. Without modifying the callers that effectively turns
it into a "no" response. This is reasonable for both of the
current callers, and it leaves room for any future caller to
check for undef explicitly.

8d91d34115 Merge branch 'unc-path-w-backslashes'
This topic branch addresses a problem identified in
https://github.com/git-for-windows/git/issues/439: while
cloning/fetching/pushing from "POSIX-ified UNC paths" (i.e. UNC paths
whose backslashes have been converted to forward slashes) works for some
time now, true UNC paths (with backslashes left intact) were handled
incorrectly. Example:

	git clone //myserver/folder/repo.git

works, but

	git clone \\myserver\folder\repo.git

(in CMD; in Git Bash, the backslashes would need to be doubled) used to
fail. The reason was an unexpected difference in command-line handling
between Win32 executables and MSYS2 ones (such as the shell that is used
by git-clone.exe to spawn git-upload-pack.exe).

This topic branch features a workaround *just* for the case where Git
passes stuff through sh.exe (which covers quite a few use cases,
though).

0e46cb6c7d mingw: special-case arguments to sh
The MSYS2 runtime does its best to emulate the command-line expansion
and de-quoting which would otherwise be performed by the calling shell.

However, in Git we pass arguments to subprocesses that we do *not* want
to be handled that way, e.g. when passing Windows paths.

Note: this is only a problem when calling MSYS2 executables, not when
calling MINGW executables such as git.exe. But sometimes we do call
MSYS2 executables, most notably when setting the use_shell flag in the
child_process structure.

There is no elegant way to determine whether the .exe file to be
executed is an MSYS2 program or a MINGW one. But since the use case of
passing a command line through the shell is so prevalent, we need to
work around this issue at least when executing sh.exe.

Let's introduce an ugly, hard-coded test whether argv[0] is "sh" to
determine whether we need to quote the arguments differently than usual.

That still does not fix the issue completely, but at least it is
something.

Incidentally, this also fixes the problem where `git clone \\server\repo`
failed due to incorrect handling of the backslashes when handing the path
to the git-upload-pack process.

7eab67e4cb mingw (t5580): document bug when cloning from backslashed UNC paths
Due to a quirk in Git's method to spawn git-upload-pack, there is a
problem when passing paths with backslashes in them: Git will force the
command-line through the shell, which has different quoting semantics in
Git for Windows (being an MSYS2 program) than regular Win32 executables
such as git.exe itself.

The symptom is that the first of the two backslashes in UNC paths of the
form \\myserver\folder\repository.git is *stripped off*.

both "--output <filename" and "--output=<filename>"[3].

All versions of meld which accept "--output" accept it in

a9bcf6586d alias: use the early config machinery to expand aliases
Instead of discovering the .git/ directory, reading the config and then
trying to painstakingly reset all the global state if we did not find a
matching alias, let's use the early config machinery instead.

It may look like unnecessary work to discover the .git/ directory in the
early config machinery and then call setup_git_directory_gently() in the
case of a shell alias, repeating the very same discovery *again*.
However, we have to do this as the early config machinery takes pains
*not* to touch any global state, while shell aliases expect a possibly
changed working directory and at least the GIT_PREFIX and GIT_DIR
variables to be set.

This change also fixes a known issue where Git tried to read the pager
config from an incorrect path in a subdirectory of a Git worktree if an
alias expanded to a shell command.

3f9c5dfb71 t7006: demonstrate a problem with aliases in subdirectories
When expanding aliases, the git_dir is set during the alias expansion
(by virtue of running setup_git_directory_gently()).

This git_dir may be relative to the current working directory, and
indeed often is simply ".git/".

When the alias expands to a shell command, we restore the original
working directory, though, yet we do not reset git_dir.

As a consequence, subsequent read_early_config() runs will mistake the
git_dir to be populated properly and not find the correct config.

Demonstrate this problem by adding a test case.

e4feff4898 t1308: relax the test verifying that empty alias values are disallowed
We are about to change the way aliases are expanded, to use the early
config machinery.

This machinery reports errors in a slightly different manner than the
cached config machinery.

Let's not get hung up by the precise wording of the message mentioning
the line number. It is really sufficient to verify that all the relevant
information is given to the user.

659fef199f help: use early config when autocorrecting aliases
Git has this feature which suggests similar commands (including aliases)
in case the user specified an unknown command.

This feature currently relies on a side effect of the way we expand
aliases right now: when a command is not a builtin, we use the regular
config machinery (meaning: discovering the .git/ directory and
initializing global state such as the config cache) to see whether the
command refers to an alias.

However, we will change the way aliases are expanded in the next
commits, to use the early config instead. That means that the
autocorrect feature can no longer discover the available aliases by
looking at the config cache (because it has not yet been initialized).

So let's just use the early config machinery instead.

This is slightly less performant than the previous way, as the early
config is used *twice*: once to see whether the command refers to an
alias, and then to see what aliases are most similar. However, this is
hardly a performance-critical code path, so performance is less important
here.

e2e1425107 config: report correct line number upon error
When get_value() parses a key/value pair, it is possible that the line
number is decreased (because the \n has been consumed already) before the
key/value pair is passed to the callback function, to allow for the
correct line to be attributed in case of an error.

However, when git_parse_source() asks get_value() to parse the key/value
pair, the error reporting is performed *after* get_value() returns.

Which means that we have to be careful not to increase the line number
in get_value() after the callback function returned an error.

69743f9b4f discover_git_directory(): avoid setting invalid git_dir
When discovering a .git/ directory, we take pains to ensure that its
repository format version matches Git's expectations, and we return NULL
otherwise.

However, we still appended the invalid path to the strbuf passed as
argument.

Let's just reset the strbuf to the state before we appended the .git/
directory that was eventually rejected.

There is another early return path in that function, when
setup_git_directory_gently_1() returns GIT_DIR_NONE or an error. In that
case, the gitdir parameter has not been touched, therefore there is no
need for an equivalent change in that code path.

0c977dbc81 diff-highlight: split code into module
The diff-so-fancy project is also written in perl, and most
of its users pipe diffs through both diff-highlight and
diff-so-fancy. It would be nice if this could be done in a
single script. So let's pull most of diff-highlight's code
into its own module which can be used by diff-so-fancy.

In addition, we'll abstract a few basic items like reading
from stdio so that a script using the module can do more
processing before or after diff-highlight handles the lines.
See the README update for more details.

One small downside is that the diff-highlight script must
now be built using the Makefile. There are ways around this,
but it quickly gets into perl arcana. Let's go with the
simple solution. As a bonus, our Makefile now respects the
PERL_PATH variable if it is set.
