Programs that use git_config need to find the global configuration.
When runtime prefix computation is enabled, this requires that
git_extract_argv0_path() is called early in the program's main().
This commit adds the necessary calls.
A comment on top of create_tmpfile() describes caveats ('can have
problems on various systems (FAT, NFS, Coda)') that should apply
in this situation as well. This in the end did not end up solving
any of my personal problems, but it might be a useful cleanup patch
nevertheless.

'git remote show' substituted the remote name into a string that was later
used as a printf format string. If a remote name contains a printf format
specifier like this:
$ git remote add foo%sbar .
then the command
$ git remote show foo%sbar
would print garbage (if you are lucky) or crash. This fixes it.

The RUNTIME_PREFIX mechanism allows us to use the default (absolute) paths
on Windows too. Defining RUNTIME_PREFIX explicitly requests for
translation of paths during runtime, depending on the path to the
executable.
We should search git programs only in the highest-priority location.
The old code added the directories "argv_exec_path",
"getenv(EXEC_PATH_ENVIRONMENT)", and "system_path(GIT_EXEC_PATH)" to
PATH. The same order is implemented in git_exec_path(), which returns
the highest priority location to search for executables. If the user
explicitly overrides the default location (by --exec-path or
GIT_EXEC_PATH) we can expect that all the required programs are there.
It does not make sense that only some of the required programs are
located at the highest priority location and other programs are picked
up from a lower priority exec-path. If exec-path is overridden
a complete set of commands should be provided, otherwise several
different versions might easily get mixed, which is likely to spread
confusion.
Accessing the location with highest priority only is also required for
testing of executables built with RUNTIME_PREFIX. Calling
system_path(GIT_EXEC_PATH) is avoided if a higher-priority location is
provided, which is the case for the tests. The call to system_path()
must be avoided, if RUNTIME_PREFIX is set, because the call would fail
if the executable is not installed at its final destination. But we
test before installing.
Programs that use git_config need to find the global
configuration. When runtime prefix computation is enabled, this
requires that git_extract_argv0_path() is called early in the
program's main().
This commit adds the necessary calls in the programs that use
git_config.
If the user specified the full path to git-upload-pack as the -u option to
"git clone" when cloning a remote repository, and git was not on the default
PATH on the remote machine, git-upload-pack was failing to exec
git-pack-objects.
By making the argv[0] path (if any) available to setup_path(), this will
allow finding the "git" executable in the same directory as
"git-upload-pack". The default built in to exec_cmd.c is to look for "git"
in the ".../libexec/git-core" directory, but it is not installed there (any
longer).
Much the same applies to invoking git-receive-pack from a non-PATH location
using the "--exec" argument to "git push".

This commit moves the code that computes the dirname of argv[0]
from git.c's main() to git_set_argv0_path() and renames the function
to git_extract_argv0_path(). This makes the code in git.c's main
less cluttered, and we can use the direname computation from other
main() functions too.

This commit modifies system_path() to compute the prefix at runtime if
configured to do so. If RUNTIME_PREFIX is defined, system_path() tries
to strip known directories that executables can be located in from the
path of the executable. If the path is successfully stripped it is used
as the prefix. For example, if the executable is "/msysgit/bin/git" and
BINDIR is "/bin", then the prefix is computed as "/msysgit".
We report an error if the runtime prefix computation fails, which can
happen if the executable is not installed at a known location. The user
should know that the global configuration is not picked up, because this
can cause unexpected behavior. If we explicitly want to ignore system
wide paths, we can set the environment variable GIT_CONFIG_NOSYSTEM, as
our tests do.
The implementation requires that argv0_path is set up properly, which is
currently the case only on Windows. argv0_path must point to the
absolute path of the directory of the executable, which is verified by
two calls to assert(). On Windows, the wrapper for main() (see
compat/mingw.h) guarantees that this is the case. On Unix, further work
is required before RUNTIME_PREFIX can be enabled.
MSYS' automatic path conversion causes problems when passing paths as
defines ('-D' arguments to the compiler). MSYS tries to be smart and
converts absolute paths to native Windows paths, e.g. if MSYS sees
"/bin" it converts it to "c:/msysgit/bin". But we want completely
unmodified paths; e.g. if we set bindir in the Makefile to "/bin", the
define BINDIR shall expand to "/bin". Conversion to absolute Windows
path will takes place later, during runtime.
This commit adds a workaround by replacing "/" with its octal
representation "\057", effectively hiding the path from MSYS' path
conversion mechanism. MSYS does no longer see the absolute path and
therefore leaves it alone.
This concept was retired by 77882f6 (Retire diffcore-pathspec.,
2006-04-10), more than 2 years ago.

There is currently no call to git_config at the start of cmd_archive.
When creating tar archives the core config is read as a side-effect of
reading the tar specific config, but this doesn't happen for zip
archives.
The consequence is that in a configuration with core.autocrlf set,
although files in a tar archive are created with crlf line endings,
files in a zip archive retain unix line endings.

Apparently do_switch() tolerates the lack of escaping in less
funky branch names. For the really strange and scary ones, we
need to escape them properly. It strangely maintains compatible
with the existing handling of branch names with spaces and
exclamation marks.

Textual diff output for unmerged paths was too eager to give condensed
combined diff. Even though "diff -c" (and "diff-files -c -p") is a
request to view combined diff without condensing (otherwise the user would
have explicitly asked for --cc, not -c), we showed "--cc" output anyway.
0fe7c1d (built-in diff: assorted updates, 2006-04-29) claimed to be
careful about doing this, but its breakage was hidden because back then
"git diff" was still a shell script that did not use the codepath it
introduced fully.

The standard libc regex library on OSX does not support alternation
in POSIX Basic Regular Expression mode. This breaks the diff.funcname
functionality on OSX.
To fix this, we use the GNU regex library which is already present in
the compat/ diretory for the MinGW port. However, simply adding compat/
to the COMPAT_CFLAGS variable causes a conflict between the system
fnmatch.h and the one present in compat/. To remedy this, move the
regex and fnmatch functionality to their own subdirectories in compat/
so they can be included seperately.
