git-gui tries to temporary set GIT_DIR for starting gitk and restore
it back after they are started. But in case of GIT_DIR which was not set
prior to invocation it is not unset after it. This affects commands
which can be later started from that git gui, for example "Git Bash".
Fix it.

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.

In commit 07e7dbf0d (gc: default aggressive depth to 50, 2016-08-11),
the default aggressive depth of git-gc has been changed to 50. While
git-config(1) has been updated to represent the new default value,
git-gc(1) still mentions the old value. This patch fixes it.

It is true that Windows XP could not create directories using paths
longer than 248 chars.
But ever since Vista, it is possible. And we stopped supporting earlier
Windows versions starting with Git for Windows v2.10.1, i.e. a few
versions ago...

Within the help message of 'git add -i', the 'diff' command uses one
tab character and blanks to create the space between the name and the
description while the others use blanks only. So if the tab size is
not at 4 characters, this description will not be in range.
Replace the tab character with blanks.

The documentation for git blame used vertical bars for optional
arguments to -M and -C, which is unusual and potentially confusing.
Since most man pages use brackets for optional items, and that's
consistent with how we document the same options for git diff and
friends, use brackets here, too.

Previously unstaged files can be staged by clicking on them and then
pressing Ctrl+T. Conveniently, the next unstaged file is selected
automatically so that the unstaged files can be staged by repeatedly
pressing Ctrl+T.
When a user hits Ctrl+T one time too many, though, Git GUI used to throw
this exception:
expected number but got ""
expected number but got ""
while executing
"expr {int([lindex [$w tag ranges in_diff] 0])}"
(procedure "toggle_or_diff" line 13)
invoked from within
"toggle_or_diff toggle .vpane.files.workdir.list "
(command bound to event)
Let's just avoid that by skipping the operation when there are no more
files to stage.

A change between versions 2.4.1 and 2.6.0 of the MSYS2 runtime modified
how Cygwin's runtime (and hence Git for Windows' MSYS2 runtime
derivative) handles locales: d16a56306d (Consolidate wctomb/mbtowc calls
for POSIX-1.2008, 2016-07-20).
An unintended side-effect is that "cold-calling" into the POSIX
emulation will start with a locale based on the current code page,
something that Git for Windows is very ill-prepared for, as it expects
to be able to pass a command-line containing non-ASCII characters to the
shell without having those characters munged.
One symptom of this behavior: when `git clone` or `git fetch` shell out
to call `git-upload-pack` with a path that contains non-ASCII
characters, the shell tried to interpret the entire command-line
(including command-line parameters) as executable path, which obviously
must fail.

When removing the hack for isatty(), we actually removed more than just
an isatty() hack: we removed the hack where internal data structures of
the MSVC runtime are modified in order to redirect stdout/stderr.
Instead of using that hack (that does not work with newer versions of
the runtime, anyway), we replaced it by reopening the respective file
descriptors.
What we forgot was to mark stderr as unbuffered again.
Reported by Hannes Sixt. Fixed with Jeff Hostetler's assistance.

The fix we introduced in Git for Windows will be made obsolete by a more
general fix that has been already accepted into upstream Git's `next`
branch.

Just like the workaround we added for t9116, t9001.83 hangs sometimes --
but not always! -- when being run in the Git for Windows SDK.
The issue seems to be related to redirection via a pipe, but it is really
hard to diagnose, what with git.exe (a non-MSYS2 program) calling a Perl
script (which is executed by an MSYS2 Perl), piping into another MSYS2
program.
As hunting time is scarce these days, simply work around this for now and
leave the real diagnosis and resolution for later.

On Windows, UNC paths are a very convenient way to share data, and
alternates are all about sharing data.
We fixed a bug where alternates specifying UNC paths were not handled
properly, and it is high time that we add a regression test to ensure
that this bug is not reintroduced.

This topic branch brings the new builtin version of the difftool into
Git for Windows' master branch.
For the moment, it still hands off to the legacy Perl script unless the
feature flag is flipped: only when the config setting
difftool.useBuiltin is set to true will `git difftool` actually use the
experimental builtin.
As the builtin difftool is slated for Git v2.12.0, we integrated those
changes and will simply drop the add-on patch that re-adds the opt-in
when the time comes to release Git for Windows v2.12.0 into the wild.

Upstream Git already picked up the builtin difftool (it took only six
iterations this time to get our changes into upstream) and it will be
part of v2.12.0.
In the meantime, to make maintenance of Git for Windows easier, let's
just add back the opt-in, and then drop this patch as soon as it is
time to release Git for Windows v2.12.0.

Teach FSCACHE to remember "not found" directories.
This is a performance optimization.
FSCACHE is a performance optimization available for Windows. It
intercepts Posix-style lstat() calls into an in-memory directory
using FindFirst/FindNext. It improves performance on Windows by
catching the first lstat() call in a directory, using FindFirst/
FindNext to read the list of files (and attribute data) for the
entire directory into the cache, and short-cut subsequent lstat()
calls in the same directory. This gives a major performance
boost on Windows.
However, it does not remember "not found" directories. When STATUS
runs and there are missing directories, the lstat() interception
fails to find the parent directory and simply return ENOENT for the
file -- it does not remember that the FindFirst on the directory
failed. Thus subsequent lstat() calls in the same directory, each
re-attempt the FindFirst. This completely defeats any performance
gains.
This can be seen by doing a sparse-checkout on a large repo and
then doing a read-tree to reset the skip-worktree bits and then
running status.
This change reduced status times for my very large repo by 60%.
