With msysGit the .git directory is supposed to be hidden, unless it is
a bare git repository. Test this.

The mingw function to launch the system html browser is silent if the
target file does not exist leaving the user confused. Make it display
something.

In msysGit the stat() function has been implemented using mingw_lstat
which sets the st_mode member to S_IFLNK when a symbolic links is found.
This causes the is_executable function to return when git attempts to
build a list of available commands in the help code and we end up missing
most git commands. (msysGit issue #445)
This patch modifies the implementation so that lstat() will return the link
flag but if we are called as stat() we read the size of the target and set
the mode to that of a regular file.

On Windows, there are dramatic problems when a command line grows
beyond PATH_MAX, which is restricted to 8191 characters on XP and
later (according to http://support.microsoft.com/kb/830473).
Work around this by just cutting off the command line at that length
(actually, at a space boundary) in the hope that only negative
refs are chucked: gitk will then do unnecessary work, but that is
still better than flashing the gitk window and exiting with exit
status 5 (which no Windows user is able to make sense of).
The first fix caused Tcl to fail to compile the regexp, see msysGit issue
427. Here is another fix without using regexp, and using a more relaxed
command line length limit to fix the original issue 387.

Make use of the new environment variable GIT_ASK_YESNO to support the
recently implemented fallback in case unlink, rename or rmdir fail for
files in use on Windows. The added dialog will present a yes/no question
to the the user which will currently be used by the windows compat layer
to let the user retry a failed file operation.

The same logic as for unlink and rename also applies to rmdir. For
example in case you have a shell open in a git controlled folder. This
will easily fail. So lets be nice for such cases as well.

On Windows in case a program is accessing a file unlink or
move operations may fail. To give the user a chance to correct
this we simply wait until the user asks us to retry or fail.
This is useful because of the following use case which seem
to happen rarely but when it does it is a mess:
After making some changes the user realizes that he was on the
incorrect branch. When trying to change the branch some file
is still in use by some other process and git stops in the
middle of changing branches. Now the user has lots of files
with changes mixed with his own. This is especially confusing
on repositories that contain lots of files.
Although the recent implementation of automatic retry makes
this scenario much more unlikely lets provide a fallback as
a last resort.

If a file is opened by another process (e.g. indexing of an IDE) for
reading it is not allowed to be deleted. So in case unlink fails retry
after waiting for some time. This extends the workaround from 6ac6f878.

These two tests fail on msysGit because /dev/null is an alias for nul on
Windows and when reading the value back from git config the alias does
not match the real filename. Also the HOME environment variable has a
unix-style path but git returns a native equivalent path for '~'. As
these are platform-dependent equivalent results it seems simplest to
skip the test entirely.

At least for cross-platform projects, it makes sense to hide the
files starting with a dot, as this is the behavior on Unix/MacOSX.
However, at least Eclipse has problems interpreting the hidden flag
correctly, so the default is to hide only the .git/ directory.
The config setting core.hideDotFiles therefore supports not only
'true' and 'false', but also 'dotGitOnly'.
[jes: clarified the commit message, made git init respect the setting
by marking the .git/ directory only after reading the config, and added
documentation, and rebased on top of current junio/next]

The timestamp that follows "Last updated " is formatted differently
depending on the version of AsciiDoc. Looking at 4604fe56 on "html"
branch, you can see that AsciiDoc 7.0.2 used to give "02-Jul-2008 03:02:14
UTC" but AsciiDoc 8.2.5 gave "2008-09-19 06:33:25 UTC". We haven't been
correctly filtering out phantom changes that result from only the build
date for some time now, it seems.
Just filter lines that begin with "Last updated ".
