3f83bf3784 Change regerror() declaration from K&R style to ANSI C (C89)
The MSVC headers typedef errcode as int, and thus confused the compiler in
the K&R style definition. ANSI style deconfuses it.

2affea4125 start_command: do not clobber cmd->env on Windows code path
Previously, it would not be possible to call start_command twice for the
same struct child_process that has env set.

The fix is achieved by moving the loop that modifies the environment block
into a helper function. This also allows us to make two other helper
functions static.

47e3de0e79 MinGW: truncate exit()'s argument to lowest 8 bits
For some reason, MinGW's bash cannot reliably detect failure of the child
process if a negative value is passed to exit(). This fixes it by
truncating the exit code in all calls of exit().

This issue was worked around in run_builtin() of git.c (2488df84 builtin
run_command: do not exit with -1, 2007-11-15). This workaround is no longer
necessary and is reverted.

a21077e75f Fix warnings in nedmalloc when compiling with GCC 4.4.0
Nedmalloc's source code has a cute #define construct to avoid inserting
an if() statement, because that might interact badly with enclosing if()
statements.  However, GCC > 4 complains with a "warning: value computed
is not used".  So we cast the result to "void".

GCC also does not understand the Visual C++ specific pragmas, so we need
to disable them for MinGW.

We need to include malloc.h on Windows even if we happen to compile the
stuff as a MinGW program.  Otherwise the function declaration of alloca()
is missing.

e16c60d9f9 MinGW readdir reimplementation to support d_type
The original readdir implementation was fast, but didn't
support the d_type. This means that git would do additional
lstats for each entry, to figure out if the entry was a
directory or not. This unneedingly slowed down many
operations, since Windows API provides this information
directly when walking the directories.

By running this implementation on Moe's repo structure:
  mkdir bummer && cd bummer; for ((i=0;i<100;i++)); do
    mkdir $i && pushd $i;
      for ((j=0;j<1000;j++)); do echo "$j" >$j; done;
    popd;
  done

We see the following speedups:

6ac6f87818 Windows: Work around intermittent failures in mingw_rename
We have replaced rename() with a version that can rename a file to a
destination that already exists. Nevertheless, many users, the author
included, observe failures in the code that are not reproducible.

The theory is that the failures are due to some other process that happens
to have opened the destination file briefly at the wrong moment. (And there
is no way on Windows to delete or replace a file that is currently open.)
The most likely candidate for such a process is a virus scanner. The
failure is more often observed while there is heavy git activity (for
example while the test suite is running or during a rebase operation).

We work around the failure by retrying the rename operation if it failed
due to ERROR_ACCESS_DENIED. The retries are delayed a bit: The first only
by giving up the time slice, the next after the minimal scheduling
granularity, and if more retries are needed, then we wait some non-trivial
amount of time with exponential back-off.

3aea1a5a89 MinGW: Quote arguments for subprocesses that contain a single-quote
Before a process can be spawned by mingw_spawnve, arguments must be
surrounded by double-quotes if special characters are present.  This is
necessary because the startup code of the spawned process will expand
arguments that look like glob patterns.  "Normal" Windows command line
utilities expand only * and ?, but MSYS programs, including bash, are
different: They also expand braces, and this has already been taken care
of by compat/mingw.c:quote_arg().

But MSYS programs also treat single-quotes in a special way: Arguments
between single-quotes are spliced together (with spaces) into a word.
With this patch this treatment is avoided by quoting arguments that contain
single-quotes.

This lets t4252 pass on Windows.

b130a72b27 MinGW: implement mmap
Add USE_WIN32_MMAP which triggers the use of windows' native
file memory mapping functionality in git_mmap()/git_munmap() functions.

As git functions currently use mmap with MAP_PRIVATE set only, this
implementation supports only that mode for now.

On Windows, offsets for memory mapped files need to match the allocation
granularity. Take this into account when calculating the packed git-
windowsize and file offsets. At the moment, the only function which makes
use of offsets in conjunction with mmap is use_pack() in sha1-file.c.

Git fast-import's code path tries to map a portion of the temporary
packfile that exceeds the current filesize, i.e. offset+length is
greater than the filesize. The NO_MMAP code worked with that since pread()
just reads the file content until EOF and returns gracefully, while
MapViewOfFile() aborts the mapping and returns 'Access Denied'.
Working around that by determining the filesize and adjusting the length
parameter.

substituted with "struct _stati64" everywhere, I tried to fix the calls
to the _function_ stat(), too, but I forgot to change the earlier

So, the stat() calls were overridden by calls to _stati64() instead.

Unfortunately, there is a function _stati64() so that I missed that
calls to stat() were not actually overridden by calls to mingw_lstat(),
but t4200-rerere.sh showed the error.

The type 'off_t' should be used everywhere so that the bit-depth of that
type can be adjusted in the standard C library, and you just need to

Only that it was not done that way in the MS runtime library.

This patch reroutes off_t to off64_t and provides the other necessary
changes so that finally, clones larger than 2 gigabyte work on Windows
(provided you are on a file system that allows files larger than 2gb).

56384e61ea optimize compat/ memmem()
When memmem() was imported from glibc 2.2 into compat/, an optimization
was dropped in the process, in order to make the code smaller and simpler.
It was OK because memmem() wasn't used in performance-critical code.  Now
the situation has changed and we can benefit from this optimization.

The trick is to avoid calling memcmp() if the first character of the needle
already doesn't match.  Checking one character directly is much cheaper
than the function call overhead.  We keep the first character of the needle
in the variable named point and the rest in the one named tail.

The following commands were run in a Linux kernel repository and timed, the
best of five results is shown:

  $ STRING='Ensure that the real time constraints are schedulable.'
  $ git log -S"$STRING" HEAD -- kernel/sched.c >/dev/null

On Windows Vista x64, before:

  real    0m8.470s
  user    0m0.000s
  sys     0m0.000s

On POSIX, rename() can replace files that are not writable. On Windows,
however, read-only files cannot be replaced without additional efforts:
We have to make the destination writable first.

Since the situations where the destination is read-only are rare, we do not
make the destination writable on every invocation, but only if the first
try to rename a file failed with an "access denied" error.

19fb896f5b Windows: Make OpenSSH properly detect tty detachment.
Apparently, CREATE_NO_WINDOW makes the OS tell the process
that it has a console, but without actually creating the
window. As a result, when git is started from GUI, ssh
tries to ask its questions on the invisible console.

This patch uses DETACHED_PROCESS instead, which clearly
means that the process should be left without a console.
The downside is that if the process manually calls
AllocConsole, the window will appear. A similar thing
might occur if it calls another console executable.

parsed the configuration file to prime its default parameter settings and
processed its command line parameters to tweak them, this will overwrite
the values set by the program with the values read from the config file.

This essentially reverts the code to the version as submitted by Mark,
with a bit more comments to clarify why we do not fall back on the default
configuration parser from git_cygwin_config().

7faee6b8de compat/cygwin.c - Use cygwin's stat if core.filemode == true
Cygwin's POSIX emulation allows use of core.filemode true, unlike native
Window's implementation of stat / lstat, and Cygwin/git users who have
configured core.filemode true in various repositories will be very
unpleasantly surprised to find that git is no longer honoring that option.
So, this patch forces use of Cygwin's stat functions if core.filemode is
set true, regardless of any other considerations.

adbc0b6b6e cygwin: Use native Win32 API for stat
lstat/stat functions in Cygwin are very slow, because they try to emulate
some *nix things that Git does not actually need. This patch adds Win32
specific implementation of these functions for Cygwin.

This implementation handles most situation directly but in some rare cases
it falls back on the implementation provided for Cygwin. This is necessary
for two reasons:

- Cygwin has its own file hierarchy, so absolute paths used in Cygwin is
  not suitable to be used Win32 API. cygwin_conv_to_win32_path can not be
  used because it automatically dereference Cygwin symbol links, also it
  causes extra syscall. Fortunately Git rarely use absolute paths, so we
  always use Cygwin implementation for absolute paths.

- Support of symbol links. Cygwin stores symbol links as ordinary using
  one of two possible formats. Therefore, the fast implementation falls
  back to Cygwin functions if it detects potential use of symbol links.

The speed of this implementation should be the same as mingw_lstat for
common cases, but it is considerable slower when the specified file name
does not exist.

Despite all efforts to make the fast implementation as robust as possible,
it may not work well for some very rare situations. I am aware only one
situation: use Cygwin mount to bind unrelated paths inside repository
together.  Therefore, the core.ignoreCygwinFSTricks configuration option is
provided, which controls whether native or Cygwin version of stat is used.

The field device is not used by Git, and putting the number of the

d317851a7f compat/mingw: Support a timeout in the poll emulation if no fds are given
Our poll() emulation did not support the timeout argument. With this patch
we support it for the simple case where poll() does not need to wait on
file descriptors as well because this case amounts to a mere Sleep().

This is needed if the user sets help.autocorrect is set to a positive
value.

3632cfc248 Use compatibility regex library for OSX/Darwin
The standard libc regex library on OSX does not support alternation
in POSIX Basic Regular Expression mode.  This breaks the diff.funcname
functionality on OSX.

To fix this, we use the GNU regex library which is already present in
the compat/ diretory for the MinGW port.  However, simply adding compat/
to the COMPAT_CFLAGS variable causes a conflict between the system
fnmatch.h and the one present in compat/.  To remedy this, move the
regex and fnmatch functionality to their own subdirectories in compat/
so they can be included seperately.

a81892dd8c compat/snprintf.c: handle snprintf's that always return the # chars transmitted
Some platforms provide a horribly broken snprintf. More broken than the
platforms that return -1 when there is too little space in the target buffer
for the formatted string. Some platforms provide an snprintf which _always_
returns the number of characters transmitted to the buffer, regardless of
whether there was enough space or not.

IRIX 6.5 is such a platform. IRIX does have a working snprintf(), but it
is only provided when _NO_XOPEN5 evaluates to zero, and this only happens
if _XOPEN_SOURCE is defined, but definition of _XOPEN_SOURCE prevents
inclusion of many other common functions and defines. So it must be avoided.

Work around these horribly broken snprintf implementations by detecting an
snprintf call which results in the number of transmitted characters exactly
equal to the length of our buffer and retrying with a larger buffer just to
be safe.
