The backslash character is not a valid part of a file name on Windows.
If, in Windows, Git attempts to write a file that has a backslash
character in the filename, it will be incorrectly interpreted as a
directory separator.
This caused CVE-2019-1354 in MinGW, as this behaviour can be manipulated
to cause the checkout to write to files it ought not write to, such as
adding code to the .git/hooks directory. This was fixed by e1d911dd4c
(mingw: disallow backslash characters in tree objects' file names,
2019-09-12). However, the vulnerability also exists in Cygwin: while
Cygwin mostly provides a POSIX-like path system, it will still interpret
a backslash as a directory separator.
To avoid this vulnerability, CVE-2021-29468, extend the previous fix to
also apply to Cygwin.
Similarly, extend the test case added by the previous version of the
commit. The test suite doesn't have an easy way to say "run this test
if in MinGW or Cygwin", so add a new test prerequisite that covers both.
As well as checking behaviour in the presence of paths containing
backslashes, the existing test also checks behaviour in the presence of
paths that differ only by the presence of a trailing ".". MinGW follows
normal Windows application behaviour and treats them as the same path,
but Cygwin more closely emulates *nix systems (at the expense of
compatibility with native Windows applications) and will create and
distinguish between such paths. Gate the relevant bit of that test
accordingly.

While not documented as such, many of the top-level options like
`--git-dir` and `--work-tree` support two syntaxes: they accept both an
equals sign between option and its value, and they do support option and
value as two separate arguments. The recently added `--config-env`
option only supports the syntax with an equals sign.
Mitigate this inconsistency by accepting both syntaxes and add tests to
verify both work.

When executing `git -h`, then the `--config-env` documentation rightly
lists the option as requiring an equals between the option and its
argument: this is the only currently supported format. But the git(1)
manpage incorrectly lists the option as taking a space in between.
Fix the issue by adding the missing space.

We pass our prune expiration to mark_reachable_objects(), which will
traverse not only the reachable objects, but consider any recent ones as
tips for reachability; see d3038d22f9 (prune: keep objects reachable
from recent objects, 2014-10-15) for details.
However, this interacts badly with the bitmap code path added in
fde67d6896 (prune: use bitmaps for reachability traversal, 2019-02-13).
If we hit the bitmap-optimized path, we return immediately to avoid the
regular traversal, accidentally skipping the "also traverse recent"
code.
Instead, we should do an if-else for the bitmap versus regular
traversal, and then follow up with the "recent" traversal in either
case. This reuses the "rev_info" for a bitmap and then a regular
traversal, but that should work OK (the bitmap code clears the pending
array in the usual way, just like a regular traversal would).
Note that I dropped the comment above the regular traversal here. It
has little explanatory value, and makes the if-else logic much harder to
read.
Here are a few variants that I rejected:
- it seems like both the reachability and recent traversals could be
done in a single traversal. This was rejected by d3038d22f9 (prune:
keep objects reachable from recent objects, 2014-10-15), though the
balance may be different when using bitmaps. However, there's a
subtle correctness issue, too: we use revs->ignore_missing_links for
the recent traversal, but not the reachability one.
- we could try using bitmaps for the recent traversal, too, which
could possibly improve performance. But it would require some fixes
in the bitmap code, which uses ignore_missing_links for its own
purposes. Plus it would probably not help all that much in practice.
We use the reachable tips to generate bitmaps, so those objects are
likely not covered by bitmaps (unless they just became unreachable).
And in general, we expect the set of unreachable objects to be much
smaller anyway, so there's less to gain.
The test in t5304 detects the bug and confirms the fix.
I also beefed up the tests in t6501, which covers the mtime-checking
code more thoroughly, to handle the bitmap case (in addition to just
"loose" and "packed" cases). Interestingly, this test doesn't actually
detect the bug, because it is running "git gc", and not "prune"
directly. And "gc" will call "repack" first, which does not suffer the
same bug. So the old-but-reachable-from-recent objects get scooped up
into the new pack along with the actually-recent objects, which gives
both a recent mtime. But it seemed prudent to get more coverage of the
bitmap case for related code.

When a bitmap walk has to traverse (to fill in non-bitmapped objects),
we use rev_info's include_check mechanism to let us stop the traversal
early. But after setting the function and its data parameter, we never
clean it up. This means that if the rev_info is used for a subsequent
traversal without bitmaps, it will unexpectedly call into our
include_check function (worse, it will do so pointing to a now-defunct
stack variable in include_check_data, likely resulting in a segfault).
There's no code which does this now, but it's an accident waiting to
happen. Let's clean up after ourselves in the bitmap code.

In order to test whether the new GIT_CONFIG_SYSTEM environment variable
behaves as expected, we unset GIT_CONFIG_NOSYSTEM in one of our tests in
t1300. But because tests are not executed in a subshell, this unset
leaks into all subsequent tests and may thus cause them to fail in some
environments. These failures are easily reproducable with `make

Fix the issue by not using `sane_unset GIT_CONFIG_NOSYSTEM`, but instead
just manually add it to the environment of the two command invocations
which need it.

When we use `git for-each-ref`, every ref will allocate
its own output strbuf and error strbuf. But we can reuse
the final strbuf for each step ref's output. The error
buffer will also be reused, despite the fact that the git
will exit when `format_ref_array_item()` return a non-zero
value and output the contents of the error buffer.
The performance for `git for-each-ref` on the Git repository
itself with performance testing tool `hyperfine` changes from
23.7 ms ± 0.9 ms to 22.2 ms ± 1.0 ms. Optimization is relatively
minor.
At the same time, we apply this optimization to `git tag -l`
and `git branch -l`.
This approach is similar to the one used by 79ed0a5
(cat-file: use a single strbuf for all output, 2018-08-14)
to speed up the cat-file builtin.
