The bash Git for Windows uses (i.e. the MSys bash) cannot pass
command-line arguments with high bits set verbatim to non-MSys programs,
but instead converts those characters with high bits set to their hex
representation.
For example, when running
strings "$(echo -e '\x80')"
(where strings.exe is a MinGW program, not an MSys one) it will complain
about not finding the file called "80".

Some of the tests were written with the assumption that the native eol would always be lf. After defining NATIVE_CRLF on MinGW, these tests began failing. This change will update the tests to also handle a native eol of crlf.

Commit 95f31e9a correctly points out that the NATIVE_CRLF setting is
incorrectly set on Mingw git. However, the Makefile variable is not
propagated to the C preprocessor and results in no change. This patch
pushes the definition to the C code and adds a test to validate that
when core.eol as native is crlf, we actually normalize text files to this
line ending convention when core.autocrlf is false.

The path in a .git platform independent link file needs to be absolute
and under mingw we need it to be a windows type path, not a unix style
path so it should start with a drive letter and not a /.

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 commit_msg function has an assumption that the string is being output
as utf-8. On Windows this is not true so always convert from the system
encoding to the desired encoding.

On Windows the application command line is provided as unicode and in
mingw-git we convert that to utf-8. So these tests that require a iso-8859-1
input are being subverted by the encoding transformations we perform and
should be skipped.

Those tests that generate files using echo can expect crlf issues when run
under windows. For such cases we use 'test_cmp_text'.

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.

On Windows, all native APIs are Unicode-based. It is impossible to pass
legacy encoded byte arrays to a process via command line or environment
variables. Disable the tests that try to do so.
In t3901, most tests still work if we don't mess up the repository encoding
in setup, so don't switch to ISO-8859-1 on MinGW.
Note that i18n tests that do their encoding tricks via encoded files (such
as t3900) are not affected by this.

This happens to shut up t7602 on Windows which would otherwise take
the different line endings for a sign that the merge failed.

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.

On msysGit creating the post-rewrite.args file using 'echo' has different
line endings from the expected comparison. Using perl normalizes the line
endings for each generated file.

Git on Windows was made aware of the fact that sometimes a file may be
used by another process and so an operation may fail but the user might
be able to fix it and is asking for confirmation whether it should
retry.
This is implemented in a way that git only asks in case stdin and stderr
are attached to a tty. Unfortunately this seems to be misdetected
sometimes causing the testsuite to hang when git is waiting for a user
answer.
This patch works around the situation.

This is really a problem with shell scripts being called on msysGit,

Along the lines of 05d0e3b and f33946d, use cat instead of echo to avoid
line ending mismatches in the test result of "am empty-file does not
infloop" which make the test fail.

Incidentally, this makes grep -I respect the "binary" attribute (actually,
the "-text" attribute, but "binary" implies that).
Since the attributes are not thread-safe, we now need to switch off
threading if -I was passed.

Again, avoid using echo (which issues DOS line endings on msysGit) to not mix
with Unix line-endings issued by git built-ins, even if this is at the cost of
calling an external executable (cat) instead of a shell built-in (echo).
In git-send-email.perl, here are two checks to determine if
$smtp_server is an absolute path (so it'll be treated as a mailer) or
not (so it'll be treated as a hostname). The one that handles actual
mail processing has been taught to recognize Windows pathnames by
commit 33b2e81f.
The other check is just to tell the user what happened, so it's far
less important, but the current state is that we will still claim to
the user that c:/foo/bar is a server. =) This makes the second check
consistent with the first.
