On Windows, strftime() does not silently ignore invalid formats, but
warns about them and then returns 0 and sets errno to EINVAL.
Unfortunately, Git does not expect such a behavior, as it disagrees
with strftime()'s semantics on Linux. As a consequence, Git
misinterprets the return value 0 as "I need more space" and grows the
buffer. As the larger buffer does not fix the format, the buffer grows
and grows and grows until we are out of memory and abort.
Ideally, we would switch off the parameter validation just for
strftime(), but we cannot even override the invalid parameter handler
via _set_thread_local_invalid_parameter_handler() using MINGW because
that function is not declared. Even _set_invalid_parameter_handler(),
which *is* declared, does not help, as it simply does... nothing.
So let's just bite the bullet and override strftime() for MINGW and
abort on an invalid format string. While this does not provide the
best user experience, it is the best we can do.
See https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/fe06s4ak.aspx for more
details.

The "2>&1" notation in Powershell and in Unix shells implies that stderr
is redirected to the same handle into which stdout is already written.
Let's use this special value to allow the same trick with
GIT_REDIRECT_STDERR and GIT_REDIRECT_STDOUT: if the former's value is
`2>&1`, then stderr will simply be written to the same handle as stdout.
The functionality was suggested by Jeff Hostetler.

Particularly when calling Git from applications, such as Visual Studio's
Team Explorer, it is important that stdin/stdout/stderr are closed
properly. However, when spawning processes on Windows, those handles
must be marked as inheritable if we want to use them, but that flag is a
global flag and may very well be used by other spawned processes which
then do not know to close those handles.
Let's introduce a set of environment variables (GIT_REDIRECT_STDIN and
friends) that specify paths to files, or even better, named pipes (which
are similar to Unix sockets) and that are used by the spawned Git
process. This helps work around above-mentioned issue: those named
pipes will be opened in a non-inheritable way upon startup, and no
handles are passed around (and therefore no inherited handles need to be
closed by any spawned child).
This feature shipped with Git for Windows (marked as experimental) since
v2.11.0(2), so it has seen some serious testing in the meantime.

We often try to open a file for reading whose existence is

On Windows, certain characters are prohibited in file names, most
prominently the colon. When fopen() is called with such an invalid file
name, the underlying Windows API actually reports a particular error,
but since there is no suitable errno value, this error is translated
to EINVAL. Detect the case and report ENOENT instead.

On Windows the environment variable PATH contains a semicolon-separated
list of directories to search for, in order, when looking for the
location of a binary to run. get_path_split() parses it and returns an
array of string copies, which is iterated by path_lookup(), which in
turn passes each entry to lookup_prog().
Change lookup_prog() to take the directory name as a length-limited
string instead of as a NUL-terminated one and parse PATH directly in
path_lookup(). This avoids memory allocations, simplifying the code.

On Windows, .git and optionally any files whose name starts with a
dot are now marked as hidden, with a core.hideDotFiles knob to
customize this behaviour.
* js/windows-dotgit:
mingw: remove unnecessary definition
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

On Windows, when writing to a pipe fails, errno is always

triggers EINVAL: the buffer is NULL, or the length is odd but the mode
is 16-bit Unicode (the broken pipe is not mentioned as possible cause).
Git never sets the file mode to anything but binary, therefore we know

not NULL.

However, these sites make it hard to audit sprintf and
strcpy calls for buffer overflows, as a reader has to

Note that environment functions are _not_ thread-safe and are not required
to be so by POSIX, the application is responsible for synchronizing access
to the environment. MSVCRT's getenv and our new getenv implementation are
better than that in that they are thread-safe with respect to other getenv
calls as long as the environment is not modified. Git's indiscriminate use

As of d41489a6 "Add more large blob test cases", git's high-level memory
allocation functions (xmalloc, xmemdupz etc.) access the environment to
simulate limited memory in tests (see 'getenv("GIT_ALLOC_LIMIT")' in
memory_limit_check()). These functions should not be used before the
environment is fully initialized (particularly not to initialize the
environment itself).
The current solution ('environ = NULL; ALLOC_GROW(environ...)') only works
because MSVCRT's getenv() reinitializes environ when it is NULL (i.e. it
leaves us with two sets of unusabe (non-UTF-8) and unfreeable (CRT-
allocated) environments).
Add our own set of malloc-or-die functions to be used in startup code.

When spawning child processes via start_command(), the environment and all

make_environment_block to create a sorted environment block string as
required by CreateProcess.
Move the merge logic to make_environment_block so that we only need to copy

expects a delta (such as child_process.env) rather than a full environment.
This is not a problem as the parameter is only used by start_command()
(all other callers previously passed char **environ, and now pass NULL).

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

Convert environment from UTF-16 to UTF-8 on startup.
No changes to getenv() are necessary, as the MSVCRT version is implemented
on top of char **environ.
However, putenv / _wputenv from MSVCRT no longer work, for two reasons:
1. they try to keep environ, _wenviron and the Win32 process environment
in sync, using the default system encoding instead of UTF-8 to convert
between charsets
2. msysgit and MSVCRT use different allocators, memory allocated in git
cannot be freed by the CRT and vice versa
Implement mingw_putenv using the env_setenv helper function from the
environment merge code.
Note that in case of memory allocation failure, putenv now dies with error
message (due to xrealloc) instead of failing with ENOMEM. As git assumes
setenv / putenv to always succeed, this prevents it from continuing with
incorrect settings.
