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).
This fixes msysGit issue 387.

On Windows the Control-C binding is used to copy and is mapped to the Tk
virtual event <<Copy>>. In the initial git-gui dialog this is also bound
as an accelerator for the Clone menu item. The effect is that both bindings
run, copying the text but resetting the clone page or switching to the clone
page when the user tries to copy text from one of the entry fields.
This patch avoids this by using Control-L instead for Windows only.

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.

It has already been fixed in commit 454efb47 (git-gui (Win): make
"Explore Working Copy" more robust, 2009-04-01), but has been broken in
commit 21985a11 (git-gui: handle non-standard worktree locations,
2010-01-23) by accidentally replacing too much with a new variable.
The problem can be reproduced when starting git-gui from within a
subdirectory. The solution is to convert the path name, explorer.exe is
invoked with, to a platform native name.

Commit 21985a11 'git-gui: handle non-standard worktree locations' attempts
to use either GIT_WORK_TREE or core.worktree to set the _gitworktree

gitk to review history. Use _gitdir to set the location for a standard

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]

t3507: Make test executable
A caller of start_command can set the member 'dir' to a directory to
request that the child process starts with that directory as CWD. The first
user of this feature was added recently in eee49b6 (Teach diff --submodule

On Windows, we have been lazy and had not implemented support for this

When using macros it is otherwise hard to know whether an
attribute set by the macro should override an already set
attribute. Consider the following .gitattributes file:
[attr]mybinary binary -ident
* ident
foo.bin mybinary
bar.bin mybinary ident
Without this patch both foo.bin and bar.bin will have
the ident attribute set, which is probably not what
the user expects. With this patch foo.bin will have an
unset ident attribute, while bar.bin will have it set.
