This change accompanies the `--no-cd` option when configured via
resources. It is required to support `Git Bash Here`: when
right-clicking an icon in the Explorer to start a Bash, the working
directory is actually the directory that is displayed in the Explorer.
That means if the clicked icon actually refers to a directory, the
working directory would be its *parent* directory.

To avoid that ugly Console window when calling \cmd\git.exe gui...
To avoid confusion with builtins, we need to move the code block
handling gitk (and now git-gui, too) to intercept before git-gui is
mistaken for a builtin.
Unfortunately, git-gui is in libexec/git-core/ while gitk is in bin/,
therefore we need slightly more adjustments than just moving and
augmenting the gitk case.

When *Git for Windows* is installed into a directory that has spaces in
it, e.g. `C:\Program Files\Git`, the `git-wrapper` appends this directory
unquoted when fixing up the command line. To resolve this, just quote the
provided `execpath`.

The idea of having the Git wrapper in the /cmd/ directory is to allow
adding only a *tiny* set of executables to the search path, to allow
minimal interference with other software applications. It is quite
likely, for example, that other software applications require their own
version of zlib1.dll and would not be overly happy to find the version
Git for Windows ships.
The /cmd/ directory also gives us the opportunity to let the Git wrapper
handle the `gitk` script. It is a Tcl/Tk script that is not recognized
by Windows, therefore calling `gitk` in `cmd.exe` would not work, even
if we add all of Git for Windows' bin/ directories.
So let's use the /cmd/ directory instead of adding /mingw??/bin/ and
/usr/bin/ to the PATH when launching Git CMD.
The way we implemented Git CMD is to embed the appropriate command line
as string resource into a copy of the Git wrapper. Therefore we extended
that syntax to allow for configuring a minimal search path.

We recently added the ability to configure copies of the Git wrapper to
launch custom command-lines, configured via plain old Windows resources.
The main user is Git for Windows' `git-bash.exe`, of course. When the
user double-clicks the `git bash` icon, it makes sense to start the Bash
in the user's home directory.
Third-party software, such as TortoiseGit or GitHub for Windows, may
want to start the Git Bash in another directory, though.
Now, when third-party software wants to call Git, they already have to
construct a command-line, and can easily pass a command-line option
`--no-cd` (which this commit introduces), and since that option is not
available when the user double-clicks an icon on the Desktop or in the
Explorer, let's keep the default to switch to the home directory if the
`--no-cd` flag was not passed along.

When we rewrite the command-line to call the *real* Git, we want to skip
the first command-line parameter. The previous code worked in most
circumstances, but was a bit fragile because it assumed that no fancy
quoting would take place.
In the next commit, we will want to have the option to skip more than
just one command-line parameter, so we have to be much more careful with
the command-line handling.

The Git wrapper does one thing, and does it well: setting up the
environment required to run Git and its scripts, and then hand off to
another program.
We already do this for the Git executable itself; in Git for Windows'
context, we have exactly the same need also when calling the Git Bash or
Git CMD. However, both are tied to what particular shell environment you
use, though: MSys or MSys2 (or whatever else cunning developers make
work for them). This means that the Git Bash and Git CMD need to be
compiled in the respective context (e.g. when compiling the
mingw-w64-git package in the MSys2 context).
Happily, Windows offers a way to configure compiled executables:
resources. So let's just look whether the current executable has a
string resource and use it as the command-line to execute after the
environment is set up. To support MSys2's Git Bash better (where
`mintty` should, but might not, be available), we verify whether the
specified executable exists, and keep looking for string resources if it
does not.
For even more flexibility, we expand environment variables specified as
`@@<VARIABLE-NAME>@@`, and for convenience `@@EXEPATH@@` expands into
the directory in which the executable resides.

We are about to use the Git wrapper to call the Git Bash of Git for
Windows. All the wrapper needs to do for that is to set up the
environment variables, use the home directory as working directory and
then hand off to a user-specified command-line.
We prepare the existing code for this change by introducing flags to set
up the environment variables, to launch a non-Git program, and to use
the home directory as working directory.
Signed-off-by: Johannes Schindelin <johannes.schindelin@gmx.de>
The original purpose of the Git wrapper is to run from inside Git for
Windows' /cmd/ directory, to allow setting up some environment variables
before Git is allowed to take over.
Due to differences in the file system layout, MSys2 requires some
changes for that to work.
In addition, we must take care to set the `MSYSTEM` environment variable
to `MINGW32` or `MINGW64`, respectively, to allow MSys2 to be configured
correctly in case Git launches a shell or Perl script.
We also need to change the `TERM` variable to `cygwin` instead of
`msys`, otherwise the pager `less.exe` (spawned e.g. by `git log`) will
simply crash with a message similar to this one:

Git started out as a bunch of separate commands, in the true Unix spirit.
Over time, more and more functionality was shared between the different
Git commands, though, so it made sense to introduce the notion of
"builtins": programs that are actually integrated into the main Git
executable.
These builtins can be called in two ways: either by specifying a
subcommand as the first command-line argument, or -- for backwards
compatibility -- by calling the Git executable hardlinked to a filename
of the form "git-<subcommand>". Example: the "log" command can be called
via "git log <parameters>" or via "git-log <parameters>". The latter
form is actually deprecated and only supported for scripts; calling
"git-log" interactively will not even work by default because the
libexec/git-core/ directory is not in the PATH.
All of this is well and groovy as long as hard links are supported.
Sadly, this is not the case in general on Windows. So it actually hurts
quite a bit when you have to fall back to copying all of git.exe's
currently 7.5MB 109 times, just for backwards compatibility.
The simple solution would be to install really trivial shell script
wrappers in place of the builtins:
for builtin in $BUILTINS
do
rm git-$builtin.exe
printf '#!/bin/sh\nexec git %s "$@"\n' $builtin > git-builtin
chmod a+x git-builtin
done
This method would work -- even on Windows because Git for Windows ships a
full-fledged Bash. However, the Windows Bash comes at a price: it needs to
spin up a full-fledged POSIX emulation layer everytime it starts.
Therefore, the shell script solution would incur a significant performance
penalty.
The best solution the Git for Windows team could come up with is to extend
the Git wrapper -- that is needed to call Git from cmd.exe anyway, and
that weighs in with a scant 19KB -- to also serve as a drop-in replacement
for the builtins so that the following workaround is satisfactory:
for builtin in $BUILTINS
do
cp git-wrapper.exe git-$builtin.exe
done
This commit allows for this, by extending the module file parsing to
turn builtin command names like `git-log.exe ...` into calls to the main
Git executable: `git.exe log ...`.

On Windows, Git is faced by the challenge that it has to set up certain
environment variables before running Git under special circumstances
such as when Git is called directly from cmd.exe (i.e. outside any
Bash environment).

The "are we talking with TTY, doing an interactive session?"
detection has been updated to work better for "Git for Windows".
* kb/msys2-tty:
mingw: make isatty() recognize MSYS2's pseudo terminals (/dev/pty*)
On Windows, .git and optionally any files whose name starts with a
dot are now marked as hidden, with a core.hideDotFiles knob to
customize this behaviour.
* js/windows-dotgit:
mingw: remove unnecessary definition
mingw: introduce the 'core.hideDotFiles' setting
MSYS2 emulates pseudo terminals via named pipes, and isatty() returns 0
for such file descriptors. Therefore, some interactive functionality
(such as launching a pager, asking if a failed unlink should be repeated
etc.) doesn't work when run in a terminal emulator that uses MSYS2's
ptys (such as mintty).
However, MSYS2 uses special names for its pty pipes ('msys-*-pty*'),
which allows us to distinguish them from normal piped input / output.
On startup, check if stdin / stdout / stderr are connected to such pipes
using the NtQueryObject API from NTDll.dll. If the names match, adjust
the flags in MSVCRT's ioinfo structure accordingly.

On Unix (and Linux), files and directories whose names start with a dot
are usually not shown by default. This convention is used by Git: the
.git/ directory should be left alone by regular users, and only accessed
through Git itself.
On Windows, no such convention exists. Instead, there is an explicit flag
to mark files or directories as hidden.
In the early days, Git for Windows did not mark the .git/ directory (or
for that matter, any file or directory whose name starts with a dot)
hidden. This lead to quite a bit of confusion, and even loss of data.
Consequently, Git for Windows introduced the core.hideDotFiles setting,
with three possible values: true, false, and dotGitOnly, defaulting to
marking only the .git/ directory as hidden.
The rationale: users do not need to access .git/ directly, and indeed (as
was demonstrated) should not really see that directory, either. However,
not all dot files should be hidden by default, as e.g. Eclipse does not
show them (and the user would therefore be unable to see, say, a
.gitattributes file).
In over five years since the last attempt to bring this patch into core
Git, a slightly buggy version of this patch has served Git for Windows'
users well: no single report indicated problems with the hidden .git/
directory, and the stream of problems caused by the previously non-hidden
.git/ directory simply stopped. The bugs have been fixed during the
process of getting this patch upstream.
Note that there is a funny quirk we have to pay attention to when
creating hidden files: we use Win32's _wopen() function which
transmogrifies its arguments and hands off to Win32's CreateFile()
function. That latter function errors out with ERROR_ACCESS_DENIED (the
equivalent of EACCES) when the equivalent of the O_CREAT flag was passed
and the file attributes (including the hidden flag) do not match an
existing file's. And _wopen() accepts no parameter that would be
transmogrified into said hidden flag. Therefore, we simply try again
without O_CREAT.
A slightly different method is required for our fopen()/freopen()
function as we cannot even *remove* the implicit O_CREAT flag.
Therefore, we briefly mark existing files as unhidden when opening them
via fopen()/freopen().
The ERROR_ACCESS_DENIED error can also be triggered by opening a file
that is marked as a system file (which is unlikely to be tracked in
Git), and by trying to create a file that has *just* been deleted and is
awaiting the last open handles to be released (which would be handled
better by the "Try again?" logic, a story for a different patch series,
though). In both cases, it does not matter much if we try again without
the O_CREAT flag, read: it does not hurt, either.
For details how ERROR_ACCESS_DENIED can be triggered, see
