f30afdabbf mingw: introduce the 'core.hideDotFiles' setting
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
https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/aa363858

867ad08a26 hooks: allow customizing where the hook directory is
Change the hardcoded lookup for .git/hooks/* to optionally lookup in
$(git config core.hooksPath)/* instead.

This is essentially a more intrusive version of the git-init ability to
specify hooks on init time via init templates.

The difference between that facility and this feature is that this can
be set up after the fact via e.g. ~/.gitconfig or /etc/gitconfig to
apply for all your personal repositories, or all repositories on the
system.

I plan on using this on a centralized Git server where users can create
arbitrary repositories under /gitroot, but I'd like to manage all the
hooks that should be run centrally via a unified dispatch mechanism.

1cae428e29 git_config_set_multivar_in_file: handle "unset" errors
We pass off to the "_gently" form to do the real work, and
just die() if it returned an error. However, our die message
de-references "value", which may be NULL if the request was
to unset a variable. Nobody using glibc noticed, because it
simply prints "(null)", which is good enough for the test
suite (and presumably very few people run across this in
practice). But other libc implementations (like Solaris) may
segfault.

Let's not only fix that, but let's make the message more
clear about what is going on in the "unset" case.

9c14bb08a4 git_config_set_multivar_in_file: all non-zero returns are errors
This function is just a thin wrapper for the "_gently" form
of the function. But the gently form is designed to feed
builtin/config.c, which passes our return code directly to
its exit status, and thus uses positive error values for
some cases. We check only negative values, meaning we would
fail to die in some cases (e.g., a malformed key).

This may or may not be triggerable in practice; we tend to
use this non-gentle form only when setting internal
variables, which would not have malformed keys.

d1f884986d git_config_push_parameter: handle empty GIT_CONFIG_PARAMETERS
The "git -c var=value" option stuffs the config value into
$GIT_CONFIG_PARAMETERS, so that sub-processes can see it.
When the config is later read via git_config() or similar,
we parse it back out of that variable.  The parsing end is a
little bit picky; it assumes that each entry was generated
with sq_quote_buf(), and that there is no extraneous
whitespace.

On the generating end, we are careful to append to an
existing $GIT_CONFIG_PARAMETERS variable if it exists.
However, our test for "should we add a space separator" is
too liberal: it will add one even if the environment
variable exists but is empty. As a result, you might end up
with:

   GIT_CONFIG_PARAMETERS=" 'core.foo=bar'"

which the parser will choke on.

This was hard to trigger in older versions of git, since we
only set the variable when we had something to put into it
(though you could certainly trigger it manually). But since
14111fc (git: submodule honor -c credential.* from command
line, 2016-02-29), the submodule code will unconditionally
put the $GIT_CONFIG_PARAMETERS variable into the environment
of any operation in the submodule, whether it is empty or
not. So any of those operations which themselves use "git
-c" will generate the unparseable value and fail.

We can easily fix it by catching this case on the generating
side. While we're adding a test, let's also check that
multiple layers of "git -c" work, which was previously not
tested at all.

3733e69464 use xmallocz to avoid size arithmetic
We frequently allocate strings as xmalloc(len + 1), where
the extra 1 is for the NUL terminator. This can be done more
simply with xmallocz, which also checks for integer
overflow.

There's no case where switching xmalloc(n+1) to xmallocz(n)
is wrong; the result is the same length, and malloc made no
guarantees about what was in the buffer anyway. But in some
cases, we can stop manually placing NUL at the end of the
allocated buffer. But that's only safe if it's clear that
the contents will always fill the buffer.

In each case where this patch does so, I manually examined
the control flow, and I tried to err on the side of caution.

A lot of call-sites for the existing family of `git_config_set`
functions do not check for errors that may occur, e.g. when the

Introduce wrappers that will cause the program to die in those

to let `git_config_set` die by default. They will be removed
later on when `git_config_set` itself has been replaced by
`git_config_set_gently`.

435ec090ec config: add core.untrackedCache
When we know that mtime on directory as given by the environment
is usable for the purpose of untracked cache, we may want the
untracked cache to be always used without any mtime test or
kernel name check being performed.

Also when we know that mtime is not usable for the purpose of
untracked cache, for example because the repo is shared over a
network file system, we may want the untracked-cache to be
automatically removed from the index.

Allow the user to express such preference by setting the
'core.untrackedCache' configuration variable, which can take
'keep', 'false', or 'true' and default to 'keep'.

When read_index_from() is called, it now adds or removes the
untracked cache in the index to respect the value of this
variable. So it does nothing if the value is `keep` or if the
variable is unset; it adds the untracked cache if the value is
`true`; and it removes the cache if the value is `false`.

`git update-index --[no-|force-]untracked-cache` still adds the
untracked cache to, or removes it, from the index, but this
shows a warning if it goes against the value of
core.untrackedCache, because the next time the index is read
the untracked cache will be added or removed if the
configuration is set to do so.

Also `--untracked-cache` used to check that the underlying
operating system and file system change `st_mtime` field of a
directory if files are added or deleted in that directory. But
because those tests take a long time, `--untracked-cache` no
longer performs them. Instead, there is now
`--test-untracked-cache` to perform the tests. This change
makes `--untracked-cache` the same as `--force-untracked-cache`.

This last change is backward incompatible and should be
mentioned in the release notes.

08a3651fe7 Make error message after failing commit_lock_file() less confusing
The error message after a failing commit_lock_file() call sometimes
looks like this, causing confusion:

  $ git remote add remote git@server.com/repo.git
  error: could not commit config file .git/config
  # Huh?!
  # I didn't want to commit anything, especially not my config file!

While in the narrow context of the lockfile module using the verb
'commit' in the error message makes perfect sense, in the broader
context of git the word 'commit' already has a very specific meaning,
hence the confusion.

Reword these error messages to say "could not write" instead of "could
not commit".

While at it, include strerror in the error messages after writing the
config file or the credential store fails to provide some information
about the cause of the failure, and update the style of the error
message after writing the reflog fails to match surrounding error
messages (i.e. no '' around the pathname and no () around the error
description).

9e9de18f1a config: silence warnings for command names with invalid keys
When we are running the git command "foo", we may have to
look up the config keys "pager.foo" and "alias.foo". These
config schemes are mis-designed, as the command names can be
anything, but the config syntax has some restrictions. For
example:

  $ git foo_bar
  error: invalid key: pager.foo_bar
  error: invalid key: alias.foo_bar
  git: 'foo_bar' is not a git command. See 'git --help'.

You cannot name an alias with an underscore. And if you have
an external command with one, you cannot configure its
pager.

In the long run, we may develop a different config scheme
for these features. But in the near term (and because we'll
need to support the existing scheme indefinitely), we should
at least squelch the error messages shown above.

These errors come from git_config_parse_key. Ideally we
would pass a "quiet" flag to the config machinery, but there
are many layers between the pager code and the key parsing.
Passing a flag through all of those would be an invasive
change.

Instead, let's provide a config function to report on
whether a key is syntactically valid, and have the pager and
alias code skip lookup for bogus keys. We can build this
easily around the existing git_config_parse_key, with two
minor modifications:

  1. We now handle a NULL store_key, to validate but not
     write out the normalized key.

  2. We accept a "quiet" flag to avoid writing to stderr.
     This doesn't need to be a full-blown public "flags"
     field, because we can make the existing implementation
     a static helper function, keeping the mess contained
     inside config.c.

This helper function does not complain about the config variable
but just silently reports failure to the caller.  It is useful for
callers that need to parse any string that could be boolean or other
string (e.g. tristate yes/no/auto).
