f6a0ad4b (Makefile: generate Perl header from template file,
2018-04-10) moved code for generating the 'use lib' lines at the top
of perl scripts from the $(SCRIPT_PERL_GEN) rule to a separate
GIT-PERL-HEADER rule.
This rule first populates INSTLIBDIR and then substitutes it into the
GIT-PERL-HEADER using sed:
INSTLIBDIR=... something ...
sed -e 's=@@INSTLIBDIR@@='$$INSTLIBDIR'=g' $< > $@
Because $INSTLIBDIR is not surrounded by double quotes, the shell
splits it at each space, causing errors if INSTLIBDIR contains an $IFS
character:
sed: 1: "s=@@INSTLIBDIR@@=/usr/l ...": unescaped newline inside substitute pattern
Add back the missing double-quotes to make it work again.

Add new condition to invoke vcpkg_install.bat: it's not enough to check
the presence of folder vcpkg. We need to check the presence of some
header files because this is one of the main goals of this script.
Previous build attempt could be aborted, so the folder will exist but
the project will not be built properly.

This actually only tests whether the push errors/hints are colored if
the respective color.* config settings are `always`, but in the regular
case they default to `auto` (in which case we color the messages when
stderr is connected to an interactive terminal), therefore these tests
should suffice.

Junio noticed that this variable is not quoted correctly when it is
passed to sed. As a shell-quoted string, it should be inside
single-quotes like $(perllibdir_relative_SQ), not outside them like
$INSTLIBDIR.
In fact, this substitution variable is not used. Simplify by removing
it.

This is an attempt to resolve an issue I experience with people that are
new to Git -- especially colleagues in a team setting -- where they miss
that their push to a remote location failed because the failure and
success both return a block of white text.
An example is if I push something to a remote repository and then a
colleague attempts to push to the same remote repository and the push
fails because it requires them to pull first, but they don't notice
because a success and failure both return a block of white text. They
then continue about their business, thinking it has been successfully
pushed.
This patch colorizes the errors and hints (in red and yellow,
respectively) so whenever there is a failure when pushing to a remote
repository that fails, it is more noticeable.

settings, refactored to use want_color_stderr().]

So far, we only ever asked whether stdout wants to be colorful. In the
upcoming patches, we will want to make push errors more prominent, which
are printed to stderr, though.
So let's refactor the want_color() function into a want_color_fd()
function (which expects to be called with fd == 1 or fd == 2 for stdout
and stderr, respectively), and then define the macro `want_color()` to
use the want_color_fd() function.
And then also add a macro `want_color_stderr()`, for convenience and
for documentation.

This is part two of the Ctrl+C story, where part one is
https://github.com/git-for-windows/MSYS2-packages/commit/f4fda0f30aa.
Part one took care of extending the signal handling in the MSYS2 runtime
such that non-MSYS2 processes "receive" a SIGINT by injecting a remote
thread that runs kernel32!CtrlRoutine as if GenerateConsoleCtrlHandler()
had been called (but in contrast to the latter, only one process is
targeted at a time, not every process attached to the same Console) into
the process that needs to be interrupted as well as into all of the
spawned child processes.
Part two now takes care of removing the misguided "kill all spawned
children" atexit() handler, and it also installs a ConsoleCtrl handler
to run Git's SIGINT handlers, such as the one waiting for the pager to
exit.

We ran out of GUIDs in the script generating Visual Studio project
files. This topic branch fixes that issue once and for all, by
generating the GUIDs.
For extra goodness, we now generate GUIDs that are not random, but are
generated from the SHA-256 checksums of the target file of the project.
That way, the project<->GUID mapping is stable.

From the output of ls-files, we remove all but the leftmost path
component and then we eliminate duplicates. We do this in a while loop,
which is a performance bottleneck when the number of iterations is large
(e.g. for 60000 files in linux.git).
$ COMP_WORDS=(git status -- ar) COMP_CWORD=3; time _git
real 0m11.876s
user 0m4.685s
sys 0m6.808s
Replacing the loop with the cut command improves performance
significantly:
$ COMP_WORDS=(git status -- ar) COMP_CWORD=3; time _git
real 0m1.372s
user 0m0.263s
sys 0m0.167s
The measurements were done with Msys2 bash, which is used by Git for
Windows.
When filtering the ls-files output we take care not to touch absolute
paths. This is redundant, because ls-files will never output absolute
paths. Remove the unnecessary operations.

Add a INSTALL_SYMLINKS option which if enabled, changes the default
hardlink installation method to one where the relevant binaries in
libexec/git-core are symlinked back to ../../bin, instead of being
hardlinked.
This new option also overrides the behavior of the existing
NO_*_HARDLINKS variables which in some cases would produce symlinks
within to libexec/, e.g. "git-add" symlinked to "git" which would be
copy of the "git" found in bin/, now "git-add" in libexec/ is always
going to be symlinked to the "git" found in the bin/ directory.
This option is being added because:
1) I think it makes what we're doing a lot more obvious. E.g. I'd
never noticed that the libexec binaries were really just hardlinks
since e.g. ls(1) won't show that in any obvious way. You need to
start stat(1)-ing things and look at the inodes to see what's
going on.
2) Some tools have very crappy support for hardlinks, e.g. the Git
shipped with GitLab is much bigger than it should be because
they're using a chef module that doesn't know about hardlinks, see
https://github.com/chef/omnibus/issues/827
I've also ran into other related issues that I think are explained
by this, e.g. compiling git with debugging and rpm refusing to
install a ~200MB git package with 2GB left on the FS, I think that
was because it doesn't consider hardlinks, just the sum of the
byte size of everything in the package.
As for the implementation, the "../../bin" noted above will vary given
some given some values of "../.." and "bin" depending on the depth of
the gitexecdir relative to the destdir, and the "bindir" target,
e.g. setting "bindir=/tmp/git/binaries gitexecdir=foo/bar/baz" will do
the right thing and produce this result:
$ file /tmp/git/foo/bar/baz/git-add
/tmp/git/foo/bar/baz/git-add: symbolic link to ../../../binaries/git

Previously, we did not install any handler for Ctrl+C, but now we really
want to because the MSYS2 runtime learned the trick to call the
ConsoleCtrlHandler when Ctrl+C was pressed.
With this, hitting Ctrl+C while `git log` is running will only terminate
the Git process, but not the pager. This finally matches the behavior on
Linux and on macOS.

When working in the root directory of a file share (this is only
possible in Git Bash and Powershell, but not in CMD), the current
directory is reported without a trailing slash.
This is different from Unix and standard Windows directories: both / and
C:\ are reported with a trailing slash as current directories.
If a Git worktree is located there, Git is not quite prepared for that:
while it does manage to find the .git directory/file, it returns as
length of the top-level directory's path *one more* than the length of
the current directory, and setup_git_directory_gently() would then
return an undefined string as prefix.
In practice, this undefined string usually points to NUL bytes, and does
not cause much harm. Under rare circumstances that are really involved
to reproduce (and not reliably so), the reported prefix could be a
suffix string of Git's exec path, though.
A careful analysis determined that this bug is unlikely to be
exploitable, therefore we mark this as a regular bug fix.

This is retry of #1419.
I added flush_fscache macro to flush cached stats after disk writing
with tests for regression reported in #1438 and #1442.
git checkout checks each file path in sorted order, so cache flushing does not
make performance worse unless we have large number of modified files in
a directory containing many files.

Note: the Vcproj generator is probably only interesting for historical

project is based on the Vcproj generator and it is better to backport
the fix than to let Vcproj have the hard-coded list of GUIDs.

The runtime of a simple `git.exe version` call on Windows is currently
dominated by the gettext setup, adding a whopping ~150ms to the ~210ms
total.
Given that this cost is added to each and every git.exe invocation goes
through common-main's invocation of git_setup_gettext(), and given that
scripts have to call git.exe dozens, if not hundreds, of times, this is
a substantial performance penalty.
This is particularly pointless when considering that Git for Windows
ships without localization (to keep the installer's size to a bearable
~34MB): all that time setting up gettext is for naught.
So let's be smart about it and skip setting up gettext if the locale
directory is not even present.

When spawning child processes, we do want them to inherit the standard
handles so that we can talk to them. We do *not* want them to inherit
any other handle, as that would hold a lock to the respective files
(preventing them from being renamed, modified or deleted), and the child
process would not know how to access that handle anyway.
Happily, there is an API to make that happen. It is supported in Windows
Vista and later, which is exactly what we promise to support in Git for
Windows for the time being.
This also means that we lift, at long last, the target Windows version
from Windows XP to Windows Vista.
