Eric Sunshine 4e3687858e config.mak.uname: Darwin: define HAVE_GETDELIM for modern OS X releases
On Mac OS X, getdelim() first became available with Xcode 4.1[1], which
was released the same day as OS X 10.7 "Lion", so assume getdelim()
availability from 10.7 onward. (As of this writing, OS X is at 10.10
"Yosemite".)

According to Wikipedia[2], 4.1 was also available for download by paying
developers on OS X 10.6 "Snow Leopard", so it's possible that some 10.6
machines may have getdelim(). However, as strbuf's use of getdelim() is
purely an optimization, let's be conservative and assume 10.6 and
earlier lack getdelim().

[1]: Or, possibly with Xcode 4.0, but that version is no longer
     available for download, or not available to non-paying developers,
     so testing is not possible.

Jeff King 0cc30e0e84 strbuf_getwholeline: use getdelim if it is available
We spend a lot of time in strbuf_getwholeline in a tight
loop reading characters from a stdio handle into a buffer.
The libc getdelim() function can do this for us with less
overhead. It's in POSIX.1-2008, and was a GNU extension
before that. Therefore we can't rely on it, but can fall
back to the existing getc loop when it is not available.

The HAVE_GETDELIM knob is turned on automatically for Linux,
where we have glibc. We don't need to set any new
feature-test macros, because we already define _GNU_SOURCE.
Other systems that implement getdelim may need to other
macros (probably _POSIX_C_SOURCE >= 200809L), but we can
address that along with setting the Makefile knob after
testing the feature on those systems.

Running "git rev-parse refs/heads/does-not-exist" on a repo
with an extremely large (1.6GB) packed-refs file went from
(best-of-5):

  real    0m8.601s
  user    0m8.084s
  sys     0m0.524s

to:

  real    0m6.768s
  user    0m6.340s
  sys     0m0.432s

for a wall-clock speedup of 21%.

Based on a patch from Rasmus Villemoes <rv@rasmusvillemoes.dk>.

Johannes Schindelin 2b4c6efc82 read-cache: optionally disallow NTFS .git variants
The point of disallowing ".git" in the index is that we
would never want to accidentally overwrite files in the
repository directory. But this means we need to respect the
filesystem's idea of when two paths are equal. The prior
commit added a helper to make such a comparison for NTFS
and FAT32; let's use it in verify_path().

We make this check optional for two reasons:

  1. It restricts the set of allowable filenames, which is
     unnecessary for people who are not on NTFS nor FAT32.
     In practice this probably doesn't matter, though, as
     the restricted names are rather obscure and almost
     certainly would never come up in practice.

  2. It has a minor performance penalty for every path we
     insert into the index.

This patch ties the check to the core.protectNTFS config
option. Though this is expected to be most useful on Windows,
we allow it to be set everywhere, as NTFS may be mounted on
other platforms. The variable does default to on for Windows,
though.

Karsten Blees e96942e821 Win32: fix environment memory leaks
All functions that modify the environment have memory leaks.

Disable gitunsetenv in the Makefile and use env_setenv (via mingw_putenv)
instead (this frees removed environment entries).

Move xstrdup from env_setenv to make_augmented_environ, so that
mingw_putenv no longer copies the environment entries (according to POSIX
[1], "the string [...] shall become part of the environment"). This also
fixes the memory leak in gitsetenv, which expects a POSIX compliant putenv.

[1] http://pubs.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/009695399/functions/putenv.html

Note: This patch depends on taking control of char **environ and having
our own mingw_putenv (both introduced in "Win32: Unicode environment
(incoming)").

Karsten Blees 148d6771bf trace: add high resolution timer function to debug performance issues
Add a getnanotime() function that returns nanoseconds since 01/01/1970 as
unsigned 64-bit integer (i.e. overflows in july 2554). This is easier to
work with than e.g. struct timeval or struct timespec. Basing the timer on
the epoch allows using the results with other time-related APIs.

To simplify adaption to different platforms, split the implementation into
a common getnanotime() and a platform-specific highres_nanos() function.

The common getnanotime() function handles errors, falling back to
gettimeofday() if highres_nanos() isn't implemented or doesn't work.

getnanotime() is also responsible for normalizing to the epoch. The offset
to the system clock is calculated only once on initialization, i.e.
manually setting the system clock has no impact on the timer (except if
the fallback gettimeofday() is in use). Git processes are typically short
lived, so we don't need to handle clock drift.

The highres_nanos() function returns monotonically increasing nanoseconds
relative to some arbitrary point in time (e.g. system boot), or 0 on
failure. Providing platform-specific implementations should be relatively
easy, e.g. adapting to clock_gettime() as defined by the POSIX realtime
extensions is seven lines of code.

This version includes highres_nanos() implementations for:
 * Linux: using clock_gettime(CLOCK_MONOTONIC)
 * Windows: using QueryPerformanceCounter()

Todo:
 * enable clock_gettime() on more platforms
 * add Mac OSX version, e.g. using mach_absolute_time + mach_timebase_info

Dynamic linking is generally preferred over static linking, and MSVCRT.dll
has been integral part of Windows for a long time.

This also fixes linker warnings for _malloc and _free in zlib.lib, which
seems to be compiled for MSVCRT.dll already.

The DLL version also exports some of the CRT initialization functions,
which are hidden in the static libcmt.lib (e.g. __wgetmainargs, required by
subsequent Unicode patches).

Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy 39539495ac index-pack: work around thread-unsafe pread()
Multi-threaing of index-pack was disabled with c0f8654
(index-pack: Disable threading on cygwin - 2012-06-26), because
pread() implementations for Cygwin and MSYS were not thread
safe.  Recent Cygwin does offer usable pread() and we enabled
multi-threading with 103d530f (Cygwin 1.7 has thread-safe pread,
2013-07-19).

Work around this problem on platforms with a thread-unsafe
pread() emulation by opening one file handle per thread; it
would prevent parallel pread() on different file handles from
stepping on each other.

Also remove NO_THREAD_SAFE_PREAD that was introduced in c0f8654
because it's no longer used anywhere.

This workaround is unconditional, even for platforms with
thread-safe pread() because the overhead is small (a couple file
handles more) and not worth fragmenting the code.

Most gmtime implementations return a NULL value when they

leave the "struct tm" untouched.  Let's also recognize this
and convert it to a NULL (with this patch, t4212 should pass
on FreeBSD).

Marat Radchenko 4b623d80f7 MSVC: link in invalidcontinue.obj for better POSIX compatibility
By default, Windows abort()'s instead of setting
errno=EINVAL when invalid arguments are passed to standard functions.

For example, when PAGER quits and git detects it with
errno=EPIPE on write(), check_pipe() in write_or_die.c tries raise(SIGPIPE)
but since there is no SIGPIPE on Windows, it is treated as invalid argument,
causing abort() and crash report window.

Linking in invalidcontinue.obj (provided along with MS compiler) allows
raise(SIGPIPE) to return with errno=EINVAL.

    #else
    # define xalloca(size)      (xmalloc(size))
    # define xalloca_free(p)    (free(p))
    #endif

   and use it like

   func() {
       p = xalloca(size);
       ...

       xalloca_free(p);
   }

This way, for systems, where alloca is available, we'll have optimal
on-stack allocations with fast executions. On the other hand, on
systems, where alloca is not available, this gracefully fallbacks to
xmalloc/free.

Both autoconf and config.mak.uname configurations were updated. For
autoconf, we are not bothering considering cases, when no alloca.h is
available, but alloca() works some other way - its simply alloca.h is
available and works or not, everything else is deep legacy.

For config.mak.uname, I've tried to make my almost-sure guess for where
alloca() is available, but since I only have access to Linux it is the
only change I can be sure about myself, with relevant to other changed
systems people Cc'ed.

NOTE

SunOS and Windows had explicit -DHAVE_ALLOCA_H in their configurations.
I've changed that to now-common HAVE_ALLOCA_H=YesPlease which should be
correct.

Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy 70a8fc999d stop using fnmatch (either native or compat)
Since v1.8.4 (about six months ago) wildmatch is used as default
replacement for fnmatch. We have seen only one fix since so wildmatch
probably has done a good job as fnmatch replacement. This concludes
the fnmatch->wildmatch transition by no longer relying on fnmatch.

Junio C Hamano d6cbf2fa7a Merge branch 'rj/cygwin-clarify-use-of-cheating-lstat'
Cygwin port added a "not quite correct but a lot faster and good
enough for many lstat() calls that are only used to see if the
working tree entity matches the index entry" lstat() emulation some
time ago, and it started biting us in places.  This removes it and
uses the standard lstat() that comes with Cygwin.

Recent topic that uses lstat on packed-refs file is broken when
this cheating lstat is used, and this is a simplest fix that is
also the cleanest direction to go in the long run.

Mark Levedahl c28facd216 cygwin: stop forcing core.filemode=false
We force core.filemode=false since c869753e (Force core.filemode to
false on Cygwin., 2006-12-30), even when the repository is on a
filesystem on which Cygwin can give us trustable filemodes, because
many native Windows applications the users use to edit files in the
working tree tend to (re)create files with executable bit randomly
set or reset.  However, binary distribution of Git that is supplied
by the downstream project to its users has been built without this
consideration.

Drop NO_TRUSTABLE_FILEMODE from our default configuration so that
hand-compiled Git out of box will match theirs.

Ramsay Jones f66450ae94 cygwin: Remove the Win32 l/stat() implementation
Commit adbc0b6b ("cygwin: Use native Win32 API for stat", 30-09-2008)
added a Win32 specific implementation of the stat functions. In order
to handle absolute paths, cygwin mount points and symbolic links, this
implementation may fall back on the standard cygwin l/stat() functions.
Also, the choice of cygwin or Win32 functions is made lazily (by the
first call(s) to l/stat) based on the state of some config variables.

Unfortunately, this "schizophrenic stat" implementation has been the
source of many problems ever since. For example, see commits 7faee6b8,
79748439, 452993c2, 085479e7, b8a97333, 924aaf3e, 05bab3ea and 0117c2f0.

In order to avoid further problems, such as the issue raised by the new
reference handling API, remove the Win32 l/stat() implementation.

Pierre le Riche fb99070303 msysgit: Add the --large-address-aware linker directive to the makefile.
This has the effect of increasing the address space from 2GB to 4GB under
64-bit Windows, reducing the likelihood of an "out of memory" error when
e.g.  repacking a large repository.  The test suite passes with this
patch, with and without the MEM_TOP_DOWN flag added to all VirtualAlloc
calls.  While this is no guarantee that there are no issues with large
memory support (it could break Git on other setups than mine, for
example), it at least increases the chance that nothing obvious goes wrong
(such as errors introduced by faulty sign extension, say, with ssize_t).
