9d2d3b8d3c vcxproj: also link-or-copy builtins
The problem with not having, say, git-receive-pack.exe after a full
build is that the test suite will then happily use the *installed*
git-receive-pack.exe because it finds nothing else.

Absolutely not what we want. We want to have confidence that our test
covers the MSVC-built Git executables, and not some random stuff.

c668d3de79 Allow make vcxproj without initializing vcpkg
The idea of the `vcxproj` target is to generate .sln/.vcxproj files and
then commit them, to be used elsewhere. Typically, this is done in a
VSTS job whenever `master` changes. So there is little use in
initializing vcpkg and building all the dependencies: they are not
necessary here.

836f91bac9 vcxproj: automatically initialize the vcpkg system
We just introduced a way to build Git for Windows with MSVC on the
command line using vcpkg-generated, up-to-date dependencies. Let's bring
that convenience to the Visual Studio project, too.

(The previous method, fetching NuGet packages, is fraught with problems:
as C++ libraries have to be built for every architecture and for every
toolset, the NuGet packages which we would like to consume fell behind
and are not up-to-date with the current versions of the libraries, e.g.
cURL and OpenSSL. By using vcpkg we avoid that problem, always building
the newest dependency versions.)

The trick is to initialize the VCPKG system once, and then build Git's
dependencies using it. We do that by attaching a pre-build event to the
libgit project (which is now the base project on which all others
depend, therefore no other project is built in paralleli, side-stepping
issues with vcpkg being unprepared for being run in parallel).

2a79f34292 vcxproj: let vcs-svn depend on libgit
It really does depend on libgit. It does not hurt to let it depend on
xdiff, and it makes the code simpler.

It is necessary to get this dependency chain right, because we will
introduce a change where the vcpkg system is initialized before building
libgit. The vcpkg system will then build the dependencies needed by Git
(and thereby make the include headers available):

As the vcpkg system cannot be run in parallel (it does not lock,
wreaking havoc with files being accessed and written at the same time,
letting the vcpkg processes stumble over each others' toes. We prevent
that by ensuring that only one project is built at first: libgit. And
this project's PreBuildEvent will be used to initialize vcpkg and build
all dependencies. Subsequently, the other projects can be built in
parallel.

30a3d72094 vcpkg: get MSVC dependencies with vcpkg rather than nuget
Dependencies such as cURL and OpenSSL are necessary to build and run
Git. Previously, we obtained those dependencies by fetching NuGet
packages.

However, it is notoriously hard to keep NuGet packages of C/C++
libraries up-to-date, as the toolsets for different Visual Studio
versions are different, and the NuGet packages would have to ship them
all.

That is the reason why the NuGet packages we use are quite old, and even
insecure in the case of cURL and OpenSSL (the versions contain known
security flaws that have been addressed by later versions for which no
NuGet packages are available).

The better way to handle this situation is to use the vcpkg system:
https://github.com/Microsoft/vcpkg

The idea is that a single Git repository contains enough supporting
files to build up-to-date versions of a large number of Open Source
libraries on demand, including cURL and OpenSSL.

We integrate this system via four new .bat files to

1) initialize the vcpkg system,
2) build the packages,
4) set up Git's Makefile system to find the build artifacts, and
3) copy the artifacts into the top-level directory

Teach the top-level git Makefile to use whatever VS compiler
tool chain is installed on the system.

are only avaliable from the various "VcVarsAll.bat" scripts
run by the "Developer Command Prompt" shortcuts.

Add compat/vcbuild/find_vs_env.bat to the Makefile.  It
uses the various "VcVarsAll.bat" scripts in a background
Developer Command Prompt process to compute the proper
environment variables and publish them for use by the Makefile.

8f68423815 Merge branch 'busybox-w32'
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.

3786d723d9 t9350: skip ISO-8859-1 test when the environment is always-UTF-8
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.

13edfca4a0 t9200: skip tests when $PWD contains a colon
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.

decc3aee9d t5813: allow for $PWD to be a Windows path
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.

db3519e6c7 t5532: workaround for BusyBox 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.

9fca5b65bc t1300: mark all test cases with funny filenames as !MINGW
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.

a49721d5a7 tests: use the correct path separator with BusyBox
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.

2fd2555c7f t/lib-gettext:test installed git-sh-i18n if GIT_TEST_INSTALLED is set
It makes very, very little sense to test the built git-sh-i18n when the
user asked specifically to test another one.

b997d0aa02 tests: respect GIT_TEST_INSTALLED when initializing repositories
It really makes very, very little sense to use a different git
executable than the one the caller indicated via setting the environment
variable GIT_TEST_INSTALLED.

fee3f77ac3 tests: do not require Git to be built when testing an installed Git
We really only need the test helpers in that case, but that is not what
we test for. So let's skip the test for now when we know that we want to
test an installed Git.

3ff04a3f33 test-tool: learn to act as a drop-in replacement for iconv
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.

664a9de79a tests: replace mingw_test_cmp with a helper in C
This helper is slightly more performant than the script with MSYS2's
Bash. And a lot more readable.

To accommodate t1050, which wants to compare files weighing in with 3MB
(falling outside of t1050's malloc limit of 1.5MB), we simply lift the
allocation limit by setting the environment variable GIT_ALLOC_LIMIT to
zero when calling the helper.

0719e4f824 test-lib: avoid unnecessary Perl invocation
It is a bit strange, and even undesirable, to require Perl just to run
the test suite even when NO_PERL was set.

This patch does not fix this problem by any stretch of imagination.
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
that unsets some, but not all, GIT_* environment variables just became a
*lot* more explicit. And all that while still reducing the total number
of lines.

cd8d1c497b test-run-command: learn to run (parts of) the testsuite
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).
