This topic branch brings slightly experimental changes supporting Git
for Windows to use BusyBox-w32 to execute its shell scripts as well as
its test suite.
The test suite can be run by installing the test artifacts into a MinGit
that has busybox.exe (and using Git for Windows' SDK's Perl for now, as
the test suite requires Perl even when NO_PERL is set, go figure) by
using the `install-mingit-test-artifacts` Makefile target with the
DESTDIR variable pointing to the top-level directory of the MinGit
installation.
To facilitate running the test suite (without having `make` available,
as `make.exe` is not part of MinGit), this branch brings an experimental
patch to the `test-run-command` helper to run Git's test suite. It is
still very experimental, though: in this developer's tests it seemed
that the `poll()` emulation required for `run_parallel_processes()` to
work sometimes hiccups on Windows, causing infinite "hangs". It is also
possible that BusyBox itself has problems writing to the pipes opened by
`test-run-command` (and merging this branch will help investigate
further). Caveat emptor.

The Makefile target `install-mingit-test-artifacts` simply copies stuff
and things directly into a MinGit directory, including an init.bat
script to set everything up so that the tests can be run in a cmd
window.
Sadly, Git's test suite still relies on a Perl interpreter even if
compiled with NO_PERL=YesPlease. We punt for now, installing a small
script into /usr/bin/perl that hands off to an existing Perl of a Git

In the BusyBox-w32 version that is currently under consideration for
MinGit for Windows (to reduce the .zip size, and to avoid problems with
the MSYS2 runtime), the UTF-16 environment present in Windows is
considered to be authoritative, and the 8-bit version is always in UTF-8
encoding.
As a consequence, the ISO-8859-1 test in t9350-fast-export (which tries
to set GIT_AUTHOR_NAME to a ISO-8859-1 encoded value) *must* fail in
that setup.
So let's detect when it would fail (due to an environment being purely
kept UTF-8 encoded), and skip that test in that case.

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.

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.

BusyBox' unzip is working pretty well. But Git's tests want to abuse it
to not only extract files, but to convert their line endings on the fly,
too. BusyBox' unzip does not support that, and it would appear that
it would require rather intrusive changes.
So let's just work around this by skipping the test case that uses
`unzip -a` and the subsequent test cases expecting `unzip -a`'s output.

Everybody and their dogs, cats and other pets settled on using unified
diffs. It is a really quaint holdover from a long-gone era that GNU diff
outputs "normal" diff by default.
Yet, t4124 relied on that mode.
This mode is so out of fashion in the meantime, though, that e.g.
BusyBox' diff decided not even to bother to support it. It only supports
unified diffs.
So let's just switch away from "normal" diffs and use unified diffs, as
we really are only interested in the `+` lines.

On Windows, it is impossible to create a file whose name contains a
quote character. We already excluded test cases using such files from
running on Windows when git.exe itself was tested.
However, we still had two test cases that try to create such a file, and
redirect stdin from such a file, respectively. This *seems* to work in
Git for Windows' Bash due to an obscure feature inherited from Cygwin:
illegal filename characters are simply mapped into/from a private UTF-8
page. Pure Win32 programs (such as git.exe) *still* cannot work with
those files, of course, but at least Unix shell scripts pretend to be
able to.
This entire strategy breaks down when switching to any Unix shell
lacking support for that private UTF-8 page trick, e.g. BusyBox-w32's
ash. So let's just exclude test cases that test whether the Unix shell
can redirect to/from files with "funny names" those from running on
Windows, too.

Since c6b0831c9c (docs: warn about possible '=' in clean/smudge filter
process values, 2016-12-03), t0021 writes out a file with quotes in its
name, and MSYS2's path conversion heuristics mistakes that to mean that
we are not talking about a path here.
Therefore, we need to use Windows paths, as the test-helper is a Win32
program that would otherwise have no idea where to look for the file.

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
much require libiconv)
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.
So let's just have a test helper (to be able to test Git, the test
helpers have to be available, after all) to act as `iconv` replacement.

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

However, it fixes *the* Perl invocation that *every single* test script
has to run.
While at it, it makes the source code also more grep'able, as the code

Instead of relying on the presence of `make`, or `prove`, we might just
as well use our own facilities to run the test suite.
This helps e.g. when trying to verify a Git for Windows installation
without requiring to download a full Git for Windows SDK (which would use
up 600+ megabytes of bandwidth, and over a gigabyte of disk space).
Of course, it still requires the test helpers to be build *somewhere*,
and the Git version should at least roughly match the version from which
the test suite comes.
At the same time, this new way to run the test suite allows to validate
that a BusyBox-backed MinGit works as expected (verifying that BusyBox'
functionality is enough to at least pass the test suite).

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.

The Pull Request at https://github.com/curl/curl/pull/1601 adds support

Git for Windows will ship with those patches backported to 7.54.1 (and
come August 9th, 2017, 7.55.0 and later).
This patch adds the Git side of that feature: by setting http.sslBackend
to "openssl" or "schannel", Git for Windows can now choose the SSL
backend at runtime.
This comes in handy because Secure Channel ("schannel") is the native
Windows solution, accessing the Windows Credential Store, thereby
allowing for enterprise-wide management of certificates. For historical
reasons, Git for Windows needs to support OpenSSL still, as it has
previously been the only supported SSL backend in Git for Windows for
almost a decade.

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).

passes stuff through sh.exe (which covers quite a few use cases,
though).

The MSYS2 runtime does its best to emulate the command-line wildcard
expansion and de-quoting which would be performed by the calling Unix
shell on Unix systems.
Those Unix shell quoting rules differ from the quoting rules applying to
Windows' cmd and Powershell, making it a little awkward to quote
command-line parameters properly when spawning other processes.
In particular, git.exe passes arguments to subprocesses that are *not*
intended to be interpreted as wildcards, and if they contain
backslashes, those are not to be interpreted as escape characters, 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. However, we do call MSYS2
executables frequently, 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", and
whether it refers to the MSYS2 Bash, 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.

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*.
