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 experimental untracked-cache feature were buggy when paths with
a few levels of subdirectories are involved.
* dt/untracked-subdir:
untracked cache: fix entry invalidation
untracked-cache: fix subdirectory handling
t7063: use --force-untracked-cache to speed up a bit
untracked-cache: support sparse checkout
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.

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.

Just like we support having alternates pointing to different drives, we
want to support alternates pointing to network shares, i.e. UNC paths.
Technically, what we do in this patch is not to support UNC alternates,
but to support UNC paths when normalizing paths. But the latter implies
the former, and the former really was the motivation for this patch.

27e1e22d (prune: factor out loose-object directory traversal, 2014-10-16)
introduced a new function for_each_loose_file_in_objdir() with a helper
for_each_file_in_obj_subdir(). The latter calls callbacks for each file
found during a directory traversal and finally also a callback for the
directory itself.
git-prune uses the function to clean up the object directory. In
particular, in the directory callback it calls rmdir(). On Windows XP,
this rmdir call fails, because the directory is still open while the
callback is called. Close the directory before calling the callback.

Git only colours the output and uses pagination if isatty() returns 1.
MSys and Cygwin emulate pseudo terminals via named pipes, meaning that
isatty() returns 0.
Commit 3adef8de55 fixed this for MSys
terminals, but not Cygwin.
The named pipes that Cygwin and Msys use are very similar. MSys PTY pipes
are called 'msys-*-pty*' and Cygwin uses 'cygwin-*-pty*'. This commit
modifies the existing check to allow both MSys and Cygwin PTY pipes to be
identified as TTYs.
Note that Pagination is still broken on Cygwin. less.exe is spawned (as
seen in Process Explorer and using GIT_TRACE=1), but the output is not
being piped into it.

Windows 7 allows users to pin running applications to the task bar. By
setting the application ID, multiple processes can share a single task
bar entry, and this is exactly what we need for `git-bash.exe` which
wants to share the task bar entry with the `mintty.exe` instance it
launches.

On Windows, a file name containing a colon is illegal. We should
therefore expect the corresponding errno when `fopen()` is called for a
path of the form <commit>:.gitattributes.

This branch introduces support for reading the "Windows-wide" Git

intended to be shared between *all* Git-related software, that config

Use msysGit's `git-wrapper` instead of the builtins. This works around
two issues:
- when the file system does not allow hard links, we would waste over
800 megabyte by having 109 copies of a multi-megabyte executable
- even when the file system allows hard links, the Windows Explorer
counts the disk usage as if it did not. Many users complained about
Git for Windows using too much space (when it actually did not). We
can easily avoid those user complaints by merging this branch.
