4f288100ce mingw: add fallback for rmdir in case directory is in use
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.

c9b7840080 mingw: make failures to unlink or move raise a question
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.

Thanks to Albert Dvornik for disabling the question if users can't see it.

If the stdout of the command is connected to a terminal but the stderr
has been redirected, the odds are good that the user can't see any
question we print out to stderr.  This will result in a "mysterious
hang" while the app is waiting for user input.

It seems better to be conservative, and avoid asking for input
whenever the stderr is not a terminal, just like we do for stdin.

19e125498b mingw: work around irregular failures of unlink on windows
If a file is opened by another process (e.g. indexing of an IDE) for
reading it is not allowed to be deleted. So in case unlink fails retry
after waiting for some time. This extends the workaround from 6ac6f878.

d1b6e6e015 win32: use our own dirent.h
The mingw-runtime implemenation of opendir, readdir and closedir
sets errno to 0 on success, something that POSIX explicitly
forbids. 3ba7a06 ("A loose object is not corrupt if it cannot be
read due to EMFILE") introduce a dependency on this behaviour,
leading to a broken "git clone" on Windows.

compat/mingw.c contains an implementation of readdir, and
compat/msvc.c contains implementations of opendir and closedir.

Move these to compat/win32/dirent.[ch], and change to our own DIR
structure at the same time.

This provides a generic Win32-implementation of opendir, readdir
and closedir which works on both MinGW and MSVC and does not reset
errno, and as a result git clone is working again on Windows.

20c6788ace msvc: opendir: do not start the search
compat/mingw.c's readdir expects to be the one that starts the search,
and if it isn't, then the first entry will be missing or incorrect.

Fix this by removing the call to _findfirst, and initializing dd_handle
to INVALID_HANDLE_VALUE.

At the same time, make sure we use FindClose instead of _findclose,
which is symmetric to readdir's FindFirstFile. Take into account that
the find-handle might already be closed by readdir.

52de4db579 mingw: use real pid
The Windows port have so far been using process handles in place
of PID. However, this is not work consistent with what getpid
returns.

PIDs are system-global identifiers, but process handles are local
to a process. Using PIDs instead of process handles allows, for
instance, a user to kill a hung process with the Task Manager,
something that would have been impossible with process handles.

Change the code to use the real PID, and use OpenProcess to get a
process-handle. Store the PID and the process handle in a linked
list protected by a critical section, so we can safely close the
process handle later.

Linked list code written by Pat Thoyts.

Unfortunately, on Windows an IPv6 address can contain "%1", so expand

As of 2dbc887e, shell.c employs execv(), so provide a MinGW-specific

As a bonus, this also resolves a compilation warning due to an
execv() prototype mismatch between Linux and MinGW. Linux expects
the second argument to be (char *const *), whereas MinGW expects
(const char *const *).

9b9784cab9 MinGW: fix stat() and lstat() implementations for handling symlinks
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.

Includes squashed fix st_mode for symlink dirs

ce518bbd6c Fix compat/regex ANSIfication on MinGW
compat/regexec.c had a weird combination of function declaration in ANSI
style and function definition in K&R style, for example:

 static unsigned
 re_copy_regs (struct re_registers *regs, regmatch_t *pmatch,
      int nregs, int regs_allocated) internal_function;

 static unsigned
 re_copy_regs (regs, pmatch, nregs, regs_allocated)
     struct re_registers *regs;
     regmatch_t *pmatch;
     int nregs, regs_allocated;
 { ... }

with this #define:

 #ifndef _LIBC
 # ifdef __i386__
 #  define internal_function   __attribute ((regparm (3), stdcall))
 # else
 #  define internal_function
 # endif
 #endif

The original version as shown above was fine, but with the ANSIfied
function definition and in the case where internal_function is not empty,
gcc identifies the declaration and definition as different and bails out.

Adding internal_function to the definition doesn't help (it results in
a syntax error); hence, remove it from the subset of declarations that gcc
flags as erroneous.

c8b296450e Fix checkout of large files to network shares on Windows XP
Bigger writes to network drives on Windows XP fail.  Cap them at 31MB to
allow them to succeed.  Callers need to be prepared for write() calls
that do less work than requested anyway.

On local drives, write() calls are translated to WriteFile() calls with
a cap of 64KB on Windows XP and 256KB on Vista.  Thus a cap of 31MB won't
affect the number of WriteFile() calls which do the actual work.  There's
still room for some other version of Windows to use a chunk size of 1MB
without increasing the number of system calls.
