0e2cc3c36d msvc: provide a main() wrapper similar to mingw_main()
The MINGW version of the main() wrapper gets away with declaring symbols
that were intentionally not exported. However, some of these symbols do
not actually exist in MSVC's UCRT.

So let's add an MSVC version of the main() wrapper that uses wmain() and
imports the UNICODE argv and environment. While at it, we pass our UTF-8
version of ARGV to the real main -- rather than overwriting __argv as is
done in the MINGW Version.

920dc7d218 msvc: convert environment from/to UTF-16 on the fly
This adds MSVC versions of getenv() and friends. These take UTF-8
arguments and return UTF-8 values, but use the UNICODE versions
of the CRT routines.  This avoids the need to write to __environ
(which is only visible if you statically link to the CRT).  This
also avoids the CP_ACP conversions performed inside the CRT.
It also avoids various memory leaks and problems.

4c7c9b4546 msvc: define O_ACCMODE
This constant is not defined in MSVC's headers.

In UCRT's fcntl.h, _O_RDONLY, _O_WRONLY and _O_RDWR are defined as 0, 1
and 2, respectively. Yes, that means that UCRT breaks with the tradition
that O_RDWR == O_RDONLY | O_WRONLY.

It is a perfectly legal way to define those constants, though, therefore
we need to take care of defining O_ACCMODE accordingly.

This is particularly important in order to keep our "open() can set
errno to EISDIR" emulation working: it tests that (flags & O_ACCMODE) is
not identical to O_RDONLY before going on to test specifically whether
the file for which open() reported EACCES is, in fact, a directory.

7da031dd9c msvc: add NuGet scripts for building with VS2015
This commit contains a GNU Makefile and NuGet configuration scripts to
download and install the various third-party libraries that we will need
to build/link with when using VS2015 to build Git.

The file "compat/vcbuild/README_VS2015.txt" contains instructions for
using this.

In this commit, "compat/vcbuild/Makefile" contains hard-coded version
numbers of the packages we require.  These are set to the current
versions as of the time of this commit.  We use "nuget restore" to
install them explicitly using a "package.config".  A future improvement
would try to use some of the automatic package management functions and
eliminate the need to specify exact versions.  I tried, but could not
get this to work.  NuGet was happy dowload "minimum requirements" rather
than "lastest" for dependencies -- and only look at one package at a
time.  For example, both curl and openssl depend upon zlib and have
different minimums.  It was unclear which version of zlib would be
installed and seemed to be dependent on the order of the top-level
packages.  So, I'm skipping that for now.

We need to be very precise when specifying NuGet package versions: while
nuget.exe auto-completes a version, say, 1.0.2 to 1.0.2.0, we will want
to parse packages.config ourselves, to generate the Visual Studio
solution, and there we need the exact version number to be able to
generate the exact path to the correct .targets file.

Define and use our own POSIX-2013-compatible 'struct stat' with nanosecond-

f7b33a02f1 The stat() function should be independent of core.symlinks

> stat():  stats the file pointed to by path and fills in buf.
> lstat(): is identical to stat(), except that if path is a symbolic link,
>          then the link itself is stat-ed, not the file that it refers to.

stat() should always return the statistics of the file or directory a
symbolic link is pointing to. The lstat() function is used to get the
stats for the symlink. Hence the check should not be there.

3ca21d9388 mingw: keep trailing slashes for _wchdir() and readlink()
This is needed so that `_wchdir()` can be used with drive root
directories, e.g. C:\ (`_wchdir("C:")` fails to switch the directory
to the root directory).

This fixes https://github.com/msysgit/git/issues/359 (in Git for Windows
2.x only, though).

Likewise, `readlink()`'s semantics require a trailing slash for symbolic
links pointing to directories. Otherwise all checked out symbolic links
pointing to directories would be marked as modified even directly after a
fresh clone.

This fixes https://github.com/git-for-windows/git/issues/210

f96d459cf7 Win32: symlink: add support for symlinks to directories
Symlinks on Windows have a flag that indicates whether the target is a file
or a directory. Symlinks of wrong type simply don't work. This even affects
core Win32 APIs (e.g. DeleteFile() refuses to delete directory symlinks).

However, CreateFile() with FILE_FLAG_BACKUP_SEMANTICS doesn't seem to care.
Check the target type by first creating a tentative file symlink, opening
it, and checking the type of the resulting handle. If it is a directory,
recreate the symlink with the directory flag set.

It is possible to create symlinks before the target exists (or in case of
symlinks to symlinks: before the target type is known). If this happens,
create a tentative file symlink and postpone the directory decision: keep
a list of phantom symlinks to be processed whenever a new directory is
created in mingw_mkdir().

Limitations: This algorithm may fail if a link target changes from file to
directory or vice versa, or if the target directory is created in another
process.

8f0aa31f13 Win32: mingw_chdir: change to symlink-resolved directory
If symlinks are enabled, resolve all symlinks when changing directories,
as required by POSIX.

Note: Git's real_path() function bases its link resolution algorithm on
this property of chdir(). Unfortunately, the current directory on Windows
is limited to only MAX_PATH (260) characters. Therefore using symlinks and
long paths in combination may be problematic.

Note: GetFinalPathNameByHandleW() was introduced with symlink support in
Windows Vista. Thus, for compatibility with Windows XP, we need to load it
dynamically and behave gracefully if it isnt's available.

e642d98db8 Win32: change default of 'core.symlinks' to false
Symlinks on Windows don't work the same way as on Unix systems. E.g. there
are different types of symlinks for directories and files, creating
symlinks requires administrative privileges etc.

By default, disable symlink support on Windows. I.e. users explicitly have
to enable it with 'git config [--system|--global] core.symlinks true'.

The test suite ignores system / global config files. Allow testing *with*
symlink support by checking if native symlinks are enabled in MSys2 (via
'MSYS=winsymlinks:nativestrict').

Reminder: This would need to be changed if / when we find a way to run the
test suite in a non-MSys-based shell (e.g. dash).

7b8bd8e73f Win32: factor out retry logic
The retry pattern is duplicated in three places. It also seems to be too
hard to use: mingw_unlink() and mingw_rmdir() duplicate the code to retry,
and both of them do so incompletely. They also do not restore errno if the
user answers 'no'.

Introduce a retry_ask_yes_no() helper function that handles retry with
small delay, asking the user, and restoring errno.

file is locked exclusively).

mingw_rmdir: include special error handling in the retry loop.

the exact size is not necessary, as git doesn't rely on the value anyway.

2e6dda571f Win32: let mingw_lstat() error early upon problems with reparse points
When obtaining lstat information for reparse points, we need to call
FindFirstFile() in addition to GetFileInformationEx() to obtain the type
of the reparse point (symlink, mount point etc.). However, currently there
is no error handling whatsoever if FindFirstFile() fails.

Call FindFirstFile() before modifying the stat *buf output parameter and
error out if the call fails.

Note: The FindFirstFile() return value includes all the data that we get
from GetFileAttributesEx(), so we could replace GetFileAttributesEx() with
FindFirstFile(). We don't do that because GetFileAttributesEx() is about
twice as fast for single files. I.e. we only pay the extra cost of calling
FindFirstFile() in the rare case that we encounter a reparse point.

Note: The indentation of the remaining reparse point code will be fixed in
the next patch.

9ab4bb8418 Win32: implement stat() with symlink support
With respect to symlinks, the current stat() implementation is almost the
same as lstat(): except for the file type (st_mode & S_IFMT), it returns
information about the link rather than the target.

Implement stat by opening the file with as little permissions as possible
and calling GetFileInformationByHandle on it. This way, all link resoltion
is handled by the Windows file system layer.

If symlinks are disabled, use lstat() as before, but fail with ELOOP if a
symlink would have to be resolved.

029b41581d Windows: force-recompile git.res for differing architectures
When git.rc is compiled into git.res, the result is actually dependent
on the architecture. That is, you cannot simply link a 32-bit git.res

Therefore, to allow 32-bit and 64-bit builds in the same directory, we
let git.res depend on GIT-PREFIX so that it gets recompiled when
compiling for a different architecture (this works because the exec path
changes based on the architecture: /mingw32/libexec/git-core for 32-bit
and /mingw64/libexec/git-core for 64-bit).

429a68b05a compat/terminal.c: only use the Windows console if bash 'read -r' fails
Accessing the Windows console through the special CONIN$ / CONOUT$ devices
doesn't work properly for non-ASCII usernames an passwords.

It also doesn't work for terminal emulators that hide the native console
window (such as mintty), and 'TERM=xterm*' is not necessarily a reliable
indicator for such terminals.

The new shell_prompt() function, on the other hand, works fine for both
MSys1 and MSys2, in native console windows as well as mintty, and properly
supports Unicode. It just needs bash on the path (for 'read -s', which is
bash-specific).

On Windows, try to use the shell to read from the terminal. If that fails
with ENOENT (i.e. bash was not found), use CONIN/OUT as fallback.

Note: To test this, create a UTF-8 credential file with non-ASCII chars,
e.g. in git-bash: 'echo url=http://täst.com > cred.txt'. Then in git-cmd,
'git credential fill <cred.txt' works (shell version), while calling git
without the git-wrapper (i.e. 'mingw64\bin\git credential fill <cred.txt')
mangles non-ASCII chars in both console output and input.

270de93254 mingw: Support git_terminal_prompt with more terminals
The `git_terminal_prompt()` function expects the terminal window to be
attached to a Win32 Console. However, this is not the case with terminal
windows other than `cmd.exe`'s, e.g. with MSys2's own `mintty`.

Non-cmd terminals such as `mintty` still have to have a Win32 Console
to be proper console programs, but have to hide the Win32 Console to
be able to provide more flexibility (such as being resizeable not only
vertically but also horizontally). By writing to that Win32 Console,
`git_terminal_prompt()` manages only to send the prompt to nowhere and
to wait for input from a Console to which the user has no access.

This commit introduces a function specifically to support `mintty` -- or
other terminals that are compatible with MSys2's `/dev/tty` emulation. We
use the `TERM` environment variable as an indicator for that: if the value
starts with "xterm" (such as `mintty`'s "xterm_256color"), we prefer to
let `xterm_prompt()` handle the user interaction.

The most prominent user of `git_terminal_prompt()` is certainly
`git-remote-https.exe`. It is an interesting use case because both
`stdin` and `stdout` are redirected when Git calls said executable, yet
it still wants to access the terminal.

When running inside a `mintty`, the terminal is not accessible to the
`git-remote-https.exe` program, though, because it is a MinGW program
and the `mintty` terminal is not backed by a Win32 console.

To solve that problem, we simply call out to the shell -- which is an
*MSys2* program and can therefore access `/dev/tty`.

21df18a302 mingw: explicitly fflush stdout
For performance reasons `stdout` is not unbuffered by default. That leads
to problems if after printing to `stdout` a read on `stdin` is performed.

For that reason interactive commands like `git clean -i` do not function
properly anymore if the `stdout` is not flushed by `fflush(stdout)` before
trying to read from `stdin`.

In the case of `git clean -i` all reads on `stdin` were preceded by a
`fflush(stdout)` call.

f750fc7083 mingw: initialize HOME on startup
HOME initialization was historically duplicated in many different places,
including /etc/profile, launch scripts such as git-bash.vbs and gitk.cmd,
and (although slightly broken) in the git-wrapper.

Even unrelated projects such as GitExtensions and TortoiseGit need to
implement the same logic to be able to call git directly.

Initialize HOME in git's own startup code so that we can eventually retire
all the duplicate initialization code.

f523b087c8 mingw: HOT FIX: work around environment issues -- again
This developer should really, really have known better. The fact that we
are changing the environment in ways for which the MSVCRT is not
prepared for is bad enough. But then this developer followed the request
to re-enable nedmalloc -- despite the prediction that it would cause an
access violation, predicting it in the same message as the request to
re-enable nedmalloc, no less!

To paper over the issue until the time when this developer finds the
time to re-design the Unicode environment handling from scratch, let's
hope that cURL is the only library we are using that *may* set an
environment variable using MSVCRT's putenv() after we fscked the
environment up.

Note: this commit can serve as no source of pride to anyone, certainly
not yours truly. It is necessary as a quick and pragmatic stop gap,
though, to prevent worse problems.

Note: cURL manages to set the variable CHARSET when nedmalloc is *not*
enabled, without causing an access violation. In that case, it sets it
successfully to the value "cp" + GetACP() (hence it is our choice, too,
cURL may need it, Git does not):

561be414f6 gettext: always use UTF-8 on native Windows
Git on native Windows exclusively uses UTF-8 for console output (both with
mintty and native console windows). Gettext uses setlocale() to determine
the output encoding for translated text, however, MSVCRT's setlocale()
doesn't support UTF-8. As a result, translated text is encoded in system
encoding (GetAPC()), and non-ASCII chars are mangled in console output.

Use gettext's bind_textdomain_codeset() to force the encoding to UTF-8 on
native Windows.

In this developers' setup, HAVE_LIBCHARSET_H is apparently defined, but
we *really* want to override the locale_charset() here.
