There are a couple of reserved names that cannot be file names on
Windows, such as `AUX`, `NUL`, etc. For an almost complete list, see
https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/win32/fileio/naming-a-file
If one would try to create a directory named `NUL`, it would actually
"succeed", i.e. the call would return success, but nothing would be
created.
Worse, even adding a file extension to the reserved name does not make
it a valid file name. To understand the rationale behind that behavior,

Our optimization to avoid calling into read_directory_recursive() when
all pathspecs have a common leading directory mean that we need to match
the logic that read_directory_recursive() would use if we had just
called it from the root. Since it does more than call treat_path() we
need to copy that same logic.
Alternatively, we could try to change treat_path to return path_recurse
for an untracked directory under the given special circumstances that
this logic checks for, but a simple switch results in many test failures
such as 'git clean -d' not wiping out untracked but empty directories.
To work around that, we'd need the caller of treat_path to check for
path_recurse and sometimes special case it into path_untracked. In
other words, we'd still have extra logic in both places.
Needing to duplicate logic like this means it is guaranteed someone will
eventually need to make further changes and forget to update both
locations. It is tempting to just nuke the leading_directory special
casing to avoid such bugs and simplify the code, but unpack_trees'
verify_clean_subdirectory() also calls read_directory() and does so with
a non-empty leading path, so I'm hesitant to try to restructure further.
Add obnoxious warnings to treat_leading_path() and
read_directory_recursive() to try to warn people of such problems.

Many years ago, the directory traversing logic had an optimization that
would always recurse into any directory that was a common prefix of all
the pathspecs without walking the leading directories to get down to
the desired directory. Thus,
git ls-files -o .git/ # case A
would notice that .git/ was a common prefix of all pathspecs (since
it is the only pathspec listed), and then traverse into it and start
showing unknown files under that directory. Unfortunately, .git/ is not
a directory we should be traversing into, which made this optimization
problematic. This also affected cases like
git ls-files -o --exclude-standard t/ # case B
where t/ was in the .gitignore file and thus isn't interesting and
shouldn't be recursed into. It also affected cases like
git ls-files -o --directory untracked_dir/ # case C
where untracked_dir/ is indeed untracked and thus interesting, but the
--directory flag means we only want to show the directory itself, not
recurse into it and start listing untracked files below it.
The case B class of bugs were noted and fixed in commits 16e2cfa909
("read_directory(): further split treat_path()", 2010-01-08) and
48ffef966c ("ls-files: fix overeager pathspec optimization",
2010-01-08), with the idea being that we first wanted to check whether
the common prefix was interesting. The former patch noted that
treat_path() couldn't be used when checking the common prefix because
treat_path() requires a dir_entry() and we haven't read any directories
at the point we are checking the common prefix. So, that patch split
treat_one_path() out of treat_path(). The latter patch then created a
new treat_leading_path() which duplicated by hand the bits of
treat_path() that couldn't be broken out and then called
treat_one_path() for the remainder. There were three problems with this
approach:
* The duplicated logic in treat_leading_path() accidentally missed the
check for special paths (such as is_dot_or_dotdot and matching
".git"), causing case A types of bugs to continue to be an issue.
* The treat_leading_path() logic assumed we should traverse into
anything where path_treatment was not path_none, i.e. it perpetuated
class C types of bugs.
* It meant we had split logic that needed to kept in sync, running the
risk that people introduced new inconsistencies (such as in commit
be8a84c526, which we reverted earlier in this series, or in commit
df5bcdf83a which we'll fix in a subsequent commit)
Fix most these problems by making treat_leading_path() not only loop
over each leading path component, but calling treat_path() directly on
each. To do so, we have to create a synthetic dir_entry, but that only
takes a few lines. Then, pay attention to the path_treatment result we
get from treat_path() and don't treat path_excluded, path_untracked, and
path_recurse all the same as path_recurse.
This leaves one remaining problem, the new inconsistency from commit
df5bcdf83a. That will be addressed in a subsequent commit.

be useful (they say things like "'git add' to stage", but that is
only possible after aborting the current "git commit" session).
But there is one case that the hints can be useful: When the current
attempt to commit is rejected because no change is recorded in the

hints can immediately be followed by the user. Teach the codepath

I forgot this in my previous patch `--pathspec-from-file` for
`git commit` [1]. When both `--pathspec-from-file` and `--all` were
specified, `--all` took precedence and `--pathspec-from-file` was
ignored. Before `--pathspec-from-file` was implemented, this case was
prevented by this check in `parse_and_validate_options()` :
die(_("paths '%s ...' with -a does not make sense"), argv[0]);
It is unfortunate that these two cases are disconnected. This came as
result of how the code was laid out before my patches, where `pathspec`
is parsed outside of `parse_and_validate_options()`. This branch is
already full of refactoring patches and I did not dare to go for another
one.
Fix by mirroring `die()` for `--pathspec-from-file` as well.

If this developer's workflow is any indication, then this is *the* most
useful feature of Git's interactive `add `command.
Note: once again, this is not a verbatim conversion from the Perl code
to C: the `hunk_splittable()` function, for example, essentially did all
the work of splitting the hunk, just to find out whether more than one
hunk would have been the result (and then tossed that result into the
trash). In C we instead count the number of resulting hunks (without
actually doing the work of splitting, but just counting the transitions
from non-context lines to context lines), and store that information
with the hunk, and we do that *while* parsing the diff in the first
place.
Another deviation: the built-in `git add -p` was designed with a single
strbuf holding the diff (and another one holding the colored diff, if
that one was asked for) in mind, and hunks essentially store just the
start and end offsets pointing into that strbuf. As a consequence, when
we split hunks, we now use a special mode where the hunk header is
generated dynamically, and only the rest of the hunk is stored using
such start/end offsets. This way, we also avoid the frequent
formatting/re-parsing of the hunk header of the Perl version.

When a user uses the sparse-checkout feature in cone mode, they
add patterns using "git sparse-checkout set <dir1> <dir2> ..."
or by using "--stdin" to provide the directories line-by-line over
stdin. This behaviour naturally looks a lot like the way a user
would type "git add <dir1> <dir2> ..."
If core.ignoreCase is enabled, then "git add" will match the input
using a case-insensitive match. Do the same for the sparse-checkout
feature.
Perform case-insensitive checks while updating the skip-worktree
bits during unpack_trees(). This is done by changing the hash
algorithm and hashmap comparison methods to optionally use case-
insensitive methods.
When this is enabled, there is a small performance cost in the
hashing algorithm. To tease out the worst possible case, the
following was run on a repo with a deep directory structure:
git ls-tree -d -r --name-only HEAD |
git sparse-checkout set --stdin
The 'set' command was timed with core.ignoreCase disabled or
enabled. For the repo with a deep history, the numbers were
core.ignoreCase=false: 62s
core.ignoreCase=true: 74s (+19.3%)
For reproducibility, the equivalent test on the Linux kernel
repository had these numbers:
core.ignoreCase=false: 3.1s
core.ignoreCase=true: 3.6s (+16%)
Now, this is not an entirely fair comparison, as most users
will define their sparse cone using more shallow directories,
and the performance improvement from eb42feca97 ("unpack-trees:
hash less in cone mode" 2019-11-21) can remove most of the
hash cost. For a more realistic test, drop the "-r" from the
ls-tree command to store only the first-level directories.
In that case, the Linux kernel repository takes 0.2-0.25s in
each case, and the deep repository takes one second, plus or
minus 0.05s, in each case.
Thus, we _can_ demonstrate a cost to this change, but it is
unlikely to matter to any reasonable sparse-checkout cone.

Commit be8a84c526 ("dir.c: make 'git-status --ignored' work within
leading directories", 2013-04-15) noted that
git status --ignored <SOMEPATH>
would not list ignored files and directories within <SOMEPATH> if
<SOMEPATH> was untracked, and modified the behavior to make it show
them. However, it did so via a hack that broke consistency; it would
show paths under <SOMEPATH> differently than a simple
git status --ignored | grep <SOMEPATH>
would show them. A correct fix is slightly more involved, and
complicated slightly by this hack, so we revert this commit (but keep
corrected versions of the testcases) and will later fix the original
bug with a subsequent patch.
Some history may be helpful:
A very, very similar case to the commit we are reverting was raised in
commit 48ffef966c ("ls-files: fix overeager pathspec optimization",
2010-01-08); but it actually went in somewhat the opposite direction. In
that commit, it mentioned how
git ls-files -o --exclude-standard t/
used to show untracked files under t/ even when t/ was ignored, and then
changed the behavior to stop showing untracked files under an ignored
directory. More importantly, this commit considered keeping this
behavior but noted that it would be inconsistent with the behavior when
multiple pathspecs were specified and thus rejected it.
The reason for this whole inconsistency when one pathspec is specified
versus zero or two is because common prefixes of pathspecs are sent
through a different set of checks (in treat_leading_path()) than normal
file/directory traversal (those go through read_directory_recursive()
and treat_path()). As such, for consistency, one needs to check that
both codepaths produce the same result.
Revert commit be8a84c526, except instead
of removing the testcase it added, modify it to check for correct and
consistent behavior. A subsequent patch in this series will fix the
testcase.

When we had multiple `format.notes` config values where we had `<ref1>`,
`false`, `<ref2>` (in that order), then we would print out the notes for
both `<ref1>` and `<ref2>`. This doesn't make sense, however, since we
parse the config in a top-down manner and a `false` should be able to
override previous configurations, just like how `--no-notes` will
override previous `--notes`.
Duplicate the logic that handles the `--[no-]notes[=]` option to
`format.notes` for consistency. As a result, when parsing the config
from top to bottom, `format.notes = true` will behave like `--notes`,
`format.notes = <ref>` will behave like `--notes=<ref>` and
`format.notes = false` will behave like `--no-notes`.
This change isn't strictly backwards compatible but since it is an edge
case where a sane user would not mix notes refs with `false` and this
feature is relatively new (released only in v2.23.0), this change should
be harmless.

The name_rev() function calls itself recursively for each interesting
parent of the commit it got as parameter, and, consequently, it can
segfault when processing a deep history if it exhausts the available
stack space. E.g. running 'git name-rev --all' and 'git name-rev
HEAD~100000' in the gcc, gecko-dev, llvm, and WebKit repositories
results in segfaults on my machine ('ulimit -s' reports 8192kB of
stack size limit), and nowadays the former segfaults in the Linux repo
as well (it reached the necessasry depth sometime between v5.3-rc4 and
-rc5).
Eliminate the recursion by inserting the interesting parents into a
LIFO 'prio_queue' [1] and iterating until the queue becomes empty.
Note that the parent commits must be added in reverse order to the
LIFO 'prio_queue', so their relative order is preserved during
processing, i.e. the first parent should come out first from the
queue, because otherwise performance greatly suffers on mergy
histories [2].
The stacksize-limited test 'name-rev works in a deep repo' in
't6120-describe.sh' demonstrated this issue and expected failure. Now
the recursion is gone, so flip it to expect success. Also gone are
the dmesg entries logging the segfault of that segfaulting 'git
name-rev' process on every execution of the test suite.
Note that this slightly changes the order of lines in the output of
'git name-rev --all', usually swapping two lines every 35 lines in
git.git or every 150 lines in linux.git. This shouldn't matter in
practice, because the output has always been unordered anyway.
This patch is best viewed with '--ignore-all-space'.
[1] Early versions of this patch used a 'commit_list', resulting in
~15% performance penalty for 'git name-rev --all' in 'linux.git',
presumably because of the memory allocation and release for each
insertion and removal. Using a LIFO 'prio_queue' has basically no
effect on performance.
[2] We prefer shorter names, i.e. 'v0.1~234' is preferred over
'v0.1^2~5', meaning that usually following the first parent of a
merge results in the best name for its ancestors. So when later
we follow the remaining parent(s) of a merge, and reach an already
named commit, then we usually find that we can't give that commit
a better name, and thus we don't have to visit any of its
ancestors again.
OTOH, if we were to follow the Nth parent of the merge first, then
the name of all its ancestors would include a corresponding '^N'.
Those are not the best names for those commits, so when later we
reach an already named commit following the first parent of that
merge, then we would have to update the name of that commit and
the names of all of its ancestors as well. Consequently, we would
have to visit many commits several times, resulting in a
significant slowdown.

In 'builtin/name-rev.c' in the name_rev() function there is a loop
iterating over all parents of the given commit, and the loop body
looks like this:
if (parent_number > 1) {
if (generation > 0)
// branch #1
new_name = ...
else
// branch #2
new_name = ...
name_rev(parent, new_name, ...);
} else {
// branch #3
name_rev(...);
}
These conditions are not covered properly in the test suite. As far
as purely test coverage goes, they are all executed several times over
in 't6120-describe.sh'. However, they don't directly influence the
command's output, because the repository used in that test script
contains several branches and tags pointing somewhere into the middle
of the commit DAG, and thus result in a better name for the
to-be-named commit. This can hide bugs: e.g. by replacing the
'new_name' parameter of the first recursive name_rev() call with
'tip_name' (effectively making both branch #1 and #2 a noop) 'git
name-rev --all' shows thousands of bogus names in the Git repository,
but the whole test suite still passes successfully. In an early
version of a later patch in this series I managed to mess up all three
branches (at once!), but the test suite still passed.
So add a new test case that operates on the following history:
A--------------master
\ /
\----------M2
\ /
\---M1-C
\ /
B
and names the commit 'B' to make sure that all three branches are
crucial to determine 'B's name:
- There is only a single ref, so all names are based on 'master',
without any undesired interference from other refs.
- Each time name_rev() follows the second parent of a merge commit,
it appends "^2" to the name. Following 'master's second parent
right at the start ensures that all commits on the ancestry path
from 'master' to 'B' have a different base name from the original
'tip_name' of the very first name_rev() invocation. Currently,
while name_rev() is recursive, it doesn't matter, but it will be
necessary to properly cover all three branches after the recursion
is eliminated later in this series.
- Following 'M2's second parent makes sure that branch #2 (i.e. when
'generation = 0') affects 'B's name.
- Following the only parent of the non-merge commit 'C' ensures that
branch #3 affects 'B's name, and that it increments 'generation'.
- Coming from 'C' 'generation' is 1, thus following 'M1's second
parent makes sure that branch #1 affects 'B's name.

The five tests checking 'git fast-import's checkpoint handling in
't9300-fast-import.sh', all with the prefix "V:" in their test
description, can hang indefinitely if 'git fast-import' unexpectedly
dies early in any of these tests.
These five tests run 'git fast-import' in the background, while
feeding instructions to its standard input through a fifo (fd 8) from
a background subshell, and reading and verifying its standard output
through another fifo (fd 9) in the test script's main shell process.
This "reading and verifying" is basically a 'while read ...' shell
loop iterating until 'git fast-import' outputs the expected line,
ignoring any other output. This doesn't work very well when 'git
fast-import' dies before printing that particular line, because the
'read' builtin doesn't get EOF after the death of 'git fast-import',
as their input and output are not connected directly but through a
fifo. Consequently, that 'read' hangs waiting for the next line from
the already dead 'git fast-import', leaving the test script and in
turn the whole test suite hanging.
Avoid this hang by checking whether the background 'git fast-import'
process exited unexpectedly early, and interrupt the 'while read' loop
if it did. We have to jump through some hoops to achive that, though:
- Start the background 'git fast-import' in another background
subshell, which then:
- prints the PID of that 'git fast-import' process to the fifo,
to be read by the main shell process, so it will know which
process to kill when the test is finished.
- waits until that 'git fast-import' process exits. If it does
exit, then report its exit code, and write a message to the
fifo used for 'git fast-import's standard output, thus
un-block the 'read' builtin in the main shell process.
- Modify that 'while read' loop to break the loop upon seeing that
message, and fail the test in the usual way.
- Once the test is finished kill that background subshell as well,
and do so before killing the background 'git fast-import'.
Otherwise the background 'git fast-import' and subshell processes
would die racily, and if 'git fast-import' were to die sooner,
then we might get some undesired and potentially confusing
messages in the test's output.

The five tests running 'git fast-import' in the background in
't9300-fast-import.sh' store the PID of that background process in a
pidfile, to be used to check whether that background process survived
each test and then to kill it in test_when_finished commands. To
achieve this all these five tests run three $(cat <pidfile>) command
substitutions each.
Store the PID of the background 'git fast-import' in a variable to

The first thing `git add -p` does is to generate a diff. If this diff
cannot be generated, `git add -p` should not continue as if nothing
happened, but instead fail.
What we *actually* do here is much broader: we now verify for *every*
`run_cmd_pipe()` call that the spawned process actually succeeded.
Note that we have to change two callers in this patch, as we need to
store the spawned process' output in a local variable, which means that
the callers can no longer decide whether to interpret the `return <$fh>`
in array or in scalar context.
This bug was noticed while writing a test case for the diff.algorithm
feature, and we let that test case double as a regression test for this

The `git add -p` command offers different prompts for regular diff hunks
vs mode change pseudo hunks vs diffs deleting files.
Let's cover this in the regresion test suite, in preparation for
re-implementing `git add -p` in C.
For the mode change prompt, we use a trick that lets this test case pass
even on systems without executable bit, i.e. where `core.filemode =
false` (such as Windows): we first add the file to the index with `git
add --chmod=+x`, and then call `git add -p` with `core.filemode` forced
to `true`. The file on disk has no executable bit set, therefore we will
see a mode change.

The TTY prerequisite is a rather heavy one: it not only requires Perl to
work, but also the IO/Pty.pm module (with native support, and it
requires pseudo terminals, too).
In particular, test cases marked with the TTY prerequisite would be
skipped in Git for Windows' SDK.
In the case of `git add -p`, we do not actually need that big a hammer,
as we do not want to test any functionality that requires a pseudo
terminal; all we want is for the interactive add command to use color,
even when being called from within the test suite.
And we found exactly such a trick earlier already: when we added a test
case to verify that the main loop of `git add -i` is colored
appropriately. Let's use that trick instead of the TTY prerequisite.
While at it, we avoid the pipes, as we do not want a SIGPIPE to break
the regression test cases (which will be much more likely when we do not
run everything through Perl because that is inherently slower).

Disallow dubiously-nested submodule git directories
...
In v2.20.x, Git clones submodules recursively by first creating the
submodules' gitdirs and _then_ "updating" the submodules. This can lead
to the situation where the clone path is taken because the directory
(while it exists already) is not a git directory, but then the clone
fails because that gitdir is unexpectedly already a directory.
This _also_ works around the vulnerability that was fixed in "Disallow
dubiously-nested submodule git directories", but it produces a different
error message than the one expected by the test case, therefore we
adjust the test case accordingly.
Note: as the two submodules "race each other", there are actually two
possible error messages, therefore we have to teach the test case to
expect _two_ possible (and good) outcomes in addition to the one it
expected before.
Note: this workaround is only necessary for the v2.20.x release train;
The behavior changed again in v2.21.x so that the original test case's
expectations are met again.

This allows hosting providers to detect whether they are being used
to attack users using malicious 'update = !command' settings in
.gitmodules.
Since ac1fbbda20 (submodule: do not copy unknown update mode from
.gitmodules, 2013-12-02), in normal cases such settings have been
treated as 'update = none', so forbidding them should not produce any
collateral damage to legitimate uses. A quick search does not reveal
any repositories making use of this construct, either.

Since ac1fbbda20 (submodule: do not copy unknown update mode from
.gitmodules, 2013-12-02), Git has been careful to avoid copying
[submodule "foo"]
update = !run an arbitrary scary command
from .gitmodules to a repository's local config, copying in the
setting 'update = none' instead. The gitmodules(5) manpage documents
the intention:
The !command form is intentionally ignored here for security
reasons
Unfortunately, starting with v2.20.0-rc0 (which integrated ee69b2a9
(submodule--helper: introduce new update-module-mode helper,
2018-08-13, first released in v2.20.0-rc0)), there are scenarios where
we *don't* ignore it: if the config store contains no
submodule.foo.update setting, the submodule-config API falls back to
reading .gitmodules and the repository-supplied !command gets run
after all.
This was part of a general change over time in submodule support to
read more directly from .gitmodules, since unlike .git/config it
allows a project to change values between branches and over time
(while still allowing .git/config to override things). But it was
never intended to apply to this kind of dangerous configuration.
The behavior change was not advertised in ee69b2a9's commit message
and was missed in review.
Let's take the opportunity to make the protection more robust, even in
Git versions that are technically not affected: instead of quietly
converting 'update = !command' to 'update = none', noisily treat it as
an error. Allowing the setting but treating it as meaning something
else was just confusing; users are better served by seeing the error
sooner. Forbidding the construct makes the semantics simpler and
means we can check for it in fsck (in a separate patch).
As a result, the submodule-config API cannot read this value from
.gitmodules under any circumstance, and we can declare with confidence
For security reasons, the '!command' form is not accepted
here.

Changes involving only blank lines are hidden with --ignore-blank-lines,
unless they appear in the context lines of other changes. This is
handled by xdl_get_hunk() for context added by --inter-hunk-context, -u
and -U.
Function context for -W and --function-context added by xdl_emit_diff()
doesn't pay attention to such ignored changes; it relies fully on
xdl_get_hunk() and shows just the post-image of ignored changes
appearing in function context. That's inconsistent and confusing.
Improve the result of using --ignore-blank-lines and --function-context
together by fully showing ignored changes if they happen to fall within
function context.

While the only permitted drive letters for physical drives on Windows
are letters of the US-English alphabet, this restriction does not apply
to virtual drives assigned via `subst <letter>: <path>`.
To prevent targeted attacks against systems where "funny" drive letters
such as `1` or `!` are assigned, let's handle them as regular drive
letters on Windows.
This fixes CVE-2019-1351.

On Windows, filenames cannot have trailing spaces or periods, when
opening such paths, they are stripped automatically. Read: you can open
the file `README` via the file name `README . . .`. This ambiguity can
be used in combination with other security bugs to cause e.g. remote
code execution during recursive clones. This patch series fixes that.

Over a decade ago, in 25fe217b86 (Windows: Treat Windows style path
names., 2008-03-05), Git was taught to handle absolute Windows paths,
i.e. paths that start with a drive letter and a colon.
Unbeknownst to us, while drive letters of physical drives are limited to
letters of the English alphabet, there is a way to assign virtual drive
letters to arbitrary directories, via the `subst` command, which is
_not_ limited to English letters.
It is therefore possible to have absolute Windows paths of the form
`1:\what\the\hex.txt`. Even "better": pretty much arbitrary Unicode
letters can also be used, e.g. `ä:\tschibät.sch`.
While it can be sensibly argued that users who set up such funny drive
letters really seek adverse consequences, the Windows Operating System
is known to be a platform where many users are at the mercy of
administrators who have their very own idea of what constitutes a
reasonable setup.
Therefore, let's just make sure that such funny paths are still
considered absolute paths by Git, on Windows.
In addition to Unicode characters, pretty much any character is a valid
drive letter, as far as `subst` is concerned, even `:` and `"` or even a
space character. While it is probably the opposite of smart to use them,
let's safeguard `is_dos_drive_prefix()` against all of them.
Note: `[::1]:repo` is a valid URL, but not a valid path on Windows.
As `[` is now considered a valid drive letter, we need to be very
careful to avoid misinterpreting such a string as valid local path in
`url_is_local_not_ssh()`. To do that, we use the just-introduced
function `is_valid_path()` (which will label the string as invalid file
name because of the colon characters).
This fixes CVE-2019-1351.

When creating a directory on Windows whose path ends in a space or a
period (or chains thereof), the Win32 API "helpfully" trims those. For
example, `mkdir("abc ");` will return success, but actually create a
directory called `abc` instead.
This stems back to the DOS days, when all file names had exactly 8
characters plus exactly 3 characters for the file extension, and the
only way to have shorter names was by padding with spaces.
Sadly, this "helpful" behavior is a bit inconsistent: after a successful
`mkdir("abc ");`, a `mkdir("abc /def")` will actually _fail_ (because
the directory `abc ` does not actually exist).
Even if it would work, we now have a serious problem because a Git
repository could contain directories `abc` and `abc `, and on Windows,
they would be "merged" unintentionally.
As these paths are illegal on Windows, anyway, let's disallow any
accesses to such paths on that Operating System.
For practical reasons, this behavior is still guarded by the
config setting `core.protectNTFS`: it is possible (and at least two
regression tests make use of it) to create commits without involving the
worktree. In such a scenario, it is of course possible -- even on
Windows -- to create such file names.
Among other consequences, this patch disallows submodules' paths to end
in spaces on Windows (which would formerly have confused Git enough to
try to write into incorrect paths, anyway).
While this patch does not fix a vulnerability on its own, it prevents an
attack vector that was exploited in demonstrations of a number of
recently-fixed security bugs.
The regression test added to `t/t7417-submodule-path-url.sh` reflects
that attack vector.
Note that we have to adjust the test case "prevent git~1 squatting on
Windows" in `t/t7415-submodule-names.sh` because of a very subtle issue.
It tries to clone two submodules whose names differ only in a trailing
period character, and as a consequence their git directories differ in
the same way. Previously, when Git tried to clone the second submodule,
it thought that the git directory already existed (because on Windows,
when you create a directory with the name `b.` it actually creates `b`),
but with this patch, the first submodule's clone will fail because of
the illegal name of the git directory. Therefore, when cloning the
second submodule, Git will take a different code path: a fresh clone
(without an existing git directory). Both code paths fail to clone the
second submodule, both because the the corresponding worktree directory
exists and is not empty, but the error messages are worded differently.

It is unfortunate that we need to quote arguments differently on
Windows, depending whether we build a command-line for MSYS2's `sh` or
for other Windows executables.
We already have a test helper to verify the latter, with this patch we
can also verify the former.

Certain characters are not admissible in file names on Windows, even if
Cygwin/MSYS2 (and therefore, Git for Windows' Bash) pretend that they
are, e.g. `:`, `<`, `>`, etc
Let's disallow those characters explicitly in Windows builds of Git.
Note: just like trailing spaces or periods, it _is_ possible on Windows
to create commits adding files with such illegal characters, as long as
the operation leaves the worktree untouched. To allow for that, we
continue to guard `is_valid_win32_path()` behind the config setting
`core.protectNTFS`, so that users _can_ continue to do that, as long as
they turn the protections off via that config setting.
Among other problems, this prevents Git from trying to write to an "NTFS
Alternate Data Stream" (which refers to metadata stored alongside a
file, under a special name: "<filename>:<stream-name>"). This fix
therefore also prevents an attack vector that was exploited in
demonstrations of a number of recently-fixed security bugs.

On Windows, file names cannot contain asterisks nor newline characters.
In an upcoming commit, we will make this limitation explicit,
disallowing even the creation of commits that introduce such file names.
However, in the test scripts touched by this patch, we _know_ that those
paths won't be checked out, so we _want_ to allow such file names.
Happily, the stringent path validation will be guarded via the
`core.protectNTFS` flag, so all we need to do is to force that flag off
temporarily.
