This topic branch introduces a highly-experimental feature allowing to
override stdin/stdout/stderr by setting environment variables e.g. to
named pipes, solving a problem in highly multi-threaded applications
where inheritable handles could cause blocked Git operations.

Empty (length 0) usernames and/or passwords, when saved in the Windows
Credential Manager, come back as null when reading the credential.
One use case for such empty credentials is with NTLM authentication, where
empty username and password instruct libcurl to authenticate using the
credentials of the currently logged-on user (single sign-on).
When locating the relevant credentials, make empty username match null.
When outputting the credentials, handle nulls correctly.

When using remotes (with git-flow especially), the remote reference names
are almost always wordwrapped in the "list references" window because it's
somewhat narrow by default. It's possible to resize it with a mouse,
but it's annoying to have to do this every time, especially on Windows 10,
where the window border seems to be only one (1) pixel wide, thus making
the grabbing of the window border tricky.

Make sure the helper does not crash when blank username and password is
provided. If the helper can save such credentials, it should be able to
read them back.

Tcl/Tk 8.6 introduced new events for the cursor left/right keys and
apparently changed the behavior of the previous event.
Let's work around that by using the new events when we are running with
Tcl/Tk 8.6 or later.

Git for Windows now ships with the new Git icon from git-scm.com. Use that
icon file if it exists instead of the old procedurally drawn one.
This patch was sent upstream but so far no decision on its inclusion was
made, so commit it to our fork.

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.

Assumes file names in git tree objects are UTF-8 encoded.
On most unix systems, the system encoding (and thus the TCL system
encoding) will be UTF-8, so file names will be displayed correctly.
On Windows, it is impossible to set the system encoding to UTF-8.
Changing the TCL system encoding (via 'encoding system ...', e.g. in the
startup code) is explicitly discouraged by the TCL docs.
Change gitk functions dealing with file names to always convert
from and to UTF-8.

Git for Windows 2.x ships with an executable that starts the Git Bash
with all the environment variables and what not properly set up. It is
also adjusted according to the Terminal emulator option chosen when
installing Git for Windows (while `bash.exe --login -i` would always
launch with Windows' default console).
So let's use that executable (usually C:\Program Files\Git\git-bash.exe)
instead of `bash.exe --login -i` if its presence was detected.

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.

It is better to state clearly expectations and intentions than to assume
quietly that everybody agrees.
This Code of Conduct is the Open Code of Conduct as per
http://todogroup.org/opencodeofconduct/ (the only modifications are the
adjustments to reflect that there is no "response team" in addition to the
Git for Windows maintainer, and the addition of the link to the Open Code
of Conduct itself).

The "2>&1" notation in POSIX shells implies that stderr is redirected to
stdout. Let's special-case this value for the environment variable
GIT_REDIRECT_STDERR to allow writing to the same destination as stdout.
The functionality was suggested by Jeff Hostetler.

On Windows, file handles need to be marked inheritable when they need to
be used as standard input/output/error handles for a newly spawned
process. The problem with that, of course, is that the "inheritable" flag
is global and therefore can wreak havoc with highly multi-threaded
applications: other spawned processes will *also* inherit those file
handles, despite having *other* input/output/error handles, and never
close the former handles because they do not know about them.
Let's introduce a set of environment variables (GIT_REDIRECT_STDIN and
friends) that point to files, or even better, named pipes and that are
used by the spawned Git process. This helps work around above-mentioned
issue: those named pipes will be opened in a non-inheritable way upon
startup, and no handles are passed around.

git_exec_path: do not return the result of getenv()
git_exec_path: avoid Coverity warning about unfree()d result
Tighten a test to avoid mistaking an extended ERE regexp engine as
a PRE regexp engine.
* jk/grep-e-could-be-extended-beyond-posix:
t7810: avoid assumption about invalid regex syntax
"git <cmd> @{push}" on a detached HEAD used to segfault; it has
been corrected to error out with a message.
* km/branch-get-push-while-detached:
branch_get_push: do not segfault when HEAD is detached
"git rebase -i" with a recent update started showing an incorrect
count when squashing more than 10 commits.
* jk/rebase-i-squash-count-fix:
rebase--interactive: count squash commits above 10 correctly
"git blame --porcelain" misidentified the "previous" <commit, path>
pair (aka "source") when contents came from two or more files.
* jk/blame-fixes:
blame: output porcelain "previous" header for each file
blame: handle --no-abbrev
blame: fix alignment with --abbrev=40
"git archive" did not read the standard configuration files, and
failed to notice a file that is marked as binary via the userdiff
driver configuration.
* jk/archive-zip-userdiff-config:
archive-zip: load userdiff config
It is natural that "git gc --auto" may not attempt to pack
everything into a single pack, and there is no point in warning
when the user has configured the system to use the pack bitmap,
leading to disabling further "gc".
* dt/disable-bitmap-in-auto-gc:
repack: die on incremental + write-bitmap-index
auto gc: don't write bitmaps for incremental repacks
Leakage of lockfiles in the config subsystem has been fixed.
* nd/config-misc-fixes:

Recent update to the default abbreviation length that auto-scales
lacked documentation update, which has been corrected.
* jc/abbrev-autoscale-config:

tree, which has been fixed.
* mh/fast-import-notes-fix-new:

Compression setting for producing packfiles were spread across
three codepaths, one of which did not honor any configuration.
Unify these so that all of them honor core.compression and
pack.compression variables the same way.
* jc/compression-config:
compression: unify pack.compression configuration parsing
Update the procedure to generate "tags" for developer support.
* jk/make-tags-find-sources-tweak:
Makefile: exclude contrib from FIND_SOURCE_FILES

Makefile: exclude test cruft from FIND_SOURCE_FILES
Makefile: reformat FIND_SOURCE_FILES
