Every compilation unit in Git is expected to include "git-compat-util.h"
first, either directly or indirectly via "builtin.h". This header papers
over differences between platforms so that we can expect the typical
POSIX functions to exist. Furthermore, it provides functionality that we
end up using everywhere.
This header is thus quite heavy as a consequence. Preprocessing it as a
standalone unit via `clang -E git-compat-util.h` yields over 23,000
lines of code overall. Naturally, it takes quite some time to compile
all of this.
Luckily, this is exactly the kind of use case that precompiled headers
aim to solve: instead of recompiling it every single time, we compile it
once and then link the result into the executable. If include guards are
set up properly it means that the file won't need to be reprocessed.
Set up such a precompiled header for "git-compat-util.h" and wire it up
via Meson. This leads to a significant speedup when performing full
builds:
Benchmark 1: ninja (rev = HEAD~)
Time (mean ± σ): 14.467 s ± 0.126 s [User: 248.133 s, System: 31.298 s]
Range (min … max): 14.195 s … 14.633 s 10 runs
Benchmark 2: ninja (rev = HEAD)
Time (mean ± σ): 10.307 s ± 0.111 s [User: 173.290 s, System: 23.998 s]
Range (min … max): 10.030 s … 10.433 s 10 runs
Summary
ninja (rev = HEAD) ran
1.40 ± 0.02 times faster than ninja (rev = HEAD~)

In the next commit we're about to introduce a precompiled header for
"git-compat-util.h". The consequence of this change is that we'll
implicitly include that header for every compilation unit that uses the
precompiled headers.
This is okay for our "normal" library sources and our builtins. But some
of our compatibility sources do not include the header on purpose, and
doing so would cause compileir errors.
Prepare for this change by splitting out compatibility sources into
their static library. Like this we can selectively enable precompiled
headers for the library sources.

The "git-compat-util.h" header is supposed to be the first header
included by every code compilation unit. As such, a subsequent commit
will start to precompile this header to speed up compilation of Git.
This will cause an issue though with the way that we have set up the
"-Wsign-compare" warnings. It is expected that any compilation unit that
fails with that compiler warning sets `DISABLE_SIGN_COMPARE_WARNINGS`
before including "git-compat-util.h". If so, we'll disable the warning
right away via a compiler pragma.
But with precompiled headers we do not know ahead of time whether the
code unit wants to disable those warnings, and thus we'll have to
precompile the header without defining `DISABLE_SIGN_COMPARE_WARNINGS`.
But as the pragma statement is wrapped by our include guards, the second
include of that file will not have the desired effect of disabling the
warnings anymore.
We could fix this issue by declaring a new macro that compilation units
are expected to invoke after having included the file. In retrospect,
that would have been the better way to handle this as it allows for
more flexibility: we could for example toggle the warning for specific
code blocks, only. But changing this now would require a bunch of
changes, and the churn feels excessive for what we gain.
Instead, prepare for the precompiled headers by moving the code outside
of the include guards.

We have a bunch of scripts used by our different build systems that are

The "update-unicode.sh" script is used to update the unicode data
compiled into Git whenever a new version of the Unicode standard has
been released. As such, it is a natural part of our developer-facing
tooling, and its presence in "contrib/" is misleading.
Promote the script into the new "tools/" directory.

The "coverage-diff.sh" script can be used to get information about test
coverage fro the Git codebase. It is thus rather specific to our build
and test infrastructure and part of the developer-facing tooling. The
fact that this script is part of "contrib/" is thus rather misleading
and a historic wart.
Promote the tool into the new "tools/" directory.

The Coccinelle tool is an ingrained part of our build infrastructure. It

rather misleading.

According to its readme, the "contrib/" directory's main intent is to
collect stuff that is not an official part of Git, either because it is
too specialized or because it is still considered experimental. The
reality tells a bit of a different story though: while it _does_ contain
such things, it also contains other things:
- Our credential helpers, which are being distributed by many
packagers nowadays and which can be considered "stable".
- A bunch of tooling that relates to our build and test
infrastructure.
Especially the second category is somewhat of a sore spot. You really
wouldn't expect build-related tooling to be considered an optional part
of Git. Quite the opposite.
Create a new top-level "tools/" directory to fix this discrepancy. This
directory will contain all kind of tools that are related to our build
infrastructure and that Git developers are likely to use day to day.
For now, this directory doesn't contain anything yet except for a
readme and a Meson skeleton. This will change in subsequent commits.
