There is a MinGW gettext.exe, but still no MinGW locale.exe. Instead the
MSys2 locale.exe kicks in, which corresponds to the MSys2 gettext.exe,
however. Therefore some assumptions of t0200 cannot be fulfilled when
running inside MSys2.

A string of the form "@/abcd" is considered a file path
by the msys layer and therefore translated to a windows path.
Here the trick is to double the slashes.
The msys patch translation can be studied with the following
test program:
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
int main(int argc, char** argv)
{
unsigned int i;
for(i=1; i < argc; i++)
printf("argv[%d]=%s\n",i, argv[i]);
exit(0);
}

MSys works very hard to convert Unix-style paths into DOS-style ones.
*Very* hard.
So hard, indeed, that
git blame -L/hello/,/green/
is translated into something like
git blame -LC:/msysgit/hello/,C:/msysgit/green/
As seen in msys_p2w in src\msys\msys\rt\src\winsup\cygwin\path.cc, line
3204ff:
case '-':
//
// here we check for POSIX paths as attributes to a POSIX switch.
//
...
seemingly absolute POSIX paths in single-letter options get expanded by
msys.dll unless they contain '=' or ';'.
So a quick and very dirty fix is to use '-L/;*evil/'. (Using an equal sign
works only when it is before a comma, so in the above example, /=*green/
would still be converted to a DOS-style path.)

The test separator char is a colon which means any absolute paths on windows
confuse the tests that use global_excludes.

Apparently the signal handling is not quite correct in the fsckobject
handling (most likely we rely on a side effect that lets us still output
some message after receiving a signal 13 but in the BuildHive setup this
fails intermittently).
As a consequence, the push in t5504 does fail as expected, but fails to
output anything (unexpected). Since this is good enough for now, let's
handle an empty output as success, too.

This happens only when the corresponding commits are not exported in
the current fast-export run. This can happen either when the relevant
commit is already marked, or when the commit is explicitly marked
as UNINTERESTING with a negative ref by another argument.
This breaks fast-export basec remote helpers.

The Git wrapper is also used as a redirector for Git for Windows'
bin\bash.exe dropin: for backwards-compatibility, bin\bash.exe exists
and simply sets up the environment variables before executing the
*real* bash.
However, due to our logic to use the directory in which the `.exe`
lives as top-level directory (or one directory below for certain, known
basenames such as `git.exe` and `gitk.exe`), the `PATH` environment
variable was prefixed with the `/bin/bin` and `/bin/mingw/bin`
directories -- which makes no sense.
Instead, let's just auto-detect the top-level directory in the common
case.

We should not conflate the 'exepath' with the 'top-level
directory'. The former should be the directory in which the executable
lives while the latter should be the top-level directory ("POSIX root
directory") as far as Git is concerned.

This is a backport of the corresponding patch to the builtin am in 2.6:
3ecc704 (am --skip/--abort: merge HEAD/ORIG_HEAD tree into index,
2015-08-19).
Reportedly, it can make a huge difference on Windows, in one case a `git
rebase --skip` took 1m40s without, and 5s with, this patch.

When we show "branch@{0}", we format into a fixed-size
buffer using sprintf. This can overflow if you have long
branch names. We can fix it by using a temporary strbuf.

This function assumes that the relative_base path passed
into it is no larger than PATH_MAX, and writes into a
fixed-size buffer. However, this path may not have actually
come from the filesystem; for example, add_submodule_odb
generates a path using a strbuf and passes it in. This is
hard to trigger in practice, though, because the long
submodule directory would have to exist on disk before we
would try to open its info/alternates file.
We can easily avoid the bug, though, by simply creating the
filename on the heap.

When we are loading a notes tree into our internal hash
table, we also collect any files that are clearly non-notes.
We format the name of the file into a PATH_MAX buffer, but
unlike true notes (which cannot be larger than a fanned-out
sha1 hash), these tree entries can be arbitrarily long,
overflowing our buffer.
We can fix this by switching to a strbuf. It doesn't even
cost us an extra allocation, as we can simply hand ownership
of the buffer over to the non-note struct.
This is of moderate security interest, as you might fetch
notes trees from an untrusted remote. However, we do not do
so by default, so you would have to manually fetch into the
notes namespace.

When unpack-trees wants to know whether a path will
overwrite anything in the working tree, we use lstat() to
see if there is anything there. But if we are going to write
"foo/bar", we can't just lstat("foo/bar"); we need to look
for leading prefixes (e.g., "foo"). So we use the lstat cache
to find the length of the leading prefix, and copy the
filename up to that length into a temporary buffer (since
the original name is const, we cannot just stick a NUL in
it).
The copy we make goes into a PATH_MAX-sized buffer, which
will overflow if the prefix is longer than PATH_MAX. How
this happens is a little tricky, since in theory PATH_MAX is
the biggest path we will have read from the filesystem. But
this can happen if:
- the compiled-in PATH_MAX does not accurately reflect
what the filesystem is capable of
- the leading prefix is not _quite_ what is on disk; it
contains the next element from the name we are checking.
So if we want to write "aaa/bbb/ccc/ddd" and "aaa/bbb"
exists, the prefix of interest is "aaa/bbb/ccc". If
"aaa/bbb" approaches PATH_MAX, then "ccc" can overflow
it.
So this can be triggered, but it's hard to do. In
particular, you cannot just "git clone" a bogus repo. The
verify_absent checks happen before unpack-trees writes
anything to the filesystem, so there are never any leading
prefixes during the initial checkout, and the bug doesn't
trigger. And by definition, these files are larger than
PATH_MAX, so writing them will fail, and clone will
complain (though it may write a partial path, which will
cause a subsequent "git checkout" to hit the bug).
We can fix it by creating the temporary path on the heap.
The extra malloc overhead is not important, as we are
already making at least one stat() call (and probably more
for the prefix discovery).
