Martin Erik Werner 6127ff63cf setup: fix windows path buffer over-stepping
Fix a buffer over-stepping issue triggered by providing an absolute path
that is similar to the work tree path.

abspath_part_inside_repo() may currently increment the path pointer by
offset_1st_component() + wtlen, which is too much, since
offset_1st_component() is a subset of wtlen.

For the *nix-style prefix '/', this does (by luck) not cause any issues,
since offset_1st_component() is 1 and there will always be a '/' or '\0'
that can "absorb" this.

In the case of DOS-style prefixes though, the offset_1st_component() is
3 and this can potentially over-step the string buffer. For example if

    work_tree = "c:/r"
    path      = "c:/rl"

Then wtlen is 4, and incrementing the path pointer by (3 + 4) would
end up 2 bytes outside a string buffer of length 6.

Similarly if

    work_tree = "c:/r"
    path      = "c:/rl/d/a"

Then (since the loop starts by also incrementing the pointer one step),
this would mean that the function would miss checking if "c:/rl/d" could
be the work_tree, arguably this is unlikely though, since it would only
be possible with symlinks on windows.

Fix this by simply avoiding to increment by offset_1st_component() and
wtlen at the same time.

	Git - the stupid content tracker

////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

"git" can mean anything, depending on your mood.

 - random three-letter combination that is pronounceable, and not
   actually used by any common UNIX command.  The fact that it is a
   mispronunciation of "get" may or may not be relevant.
 - stupid. contemptible and despicable. simple. Take your pick from the
   dictionary of slang.
 - "global information tracker": you're in a good mood, and it actually
   works for you. Angels sing, and a light suddenly fills the room.
 - "goddamn idiotic truckload of sh*t": when it breaks

Git is a fast, scalable, distributed revision control system with an
unusually rich command set that provides both high-level operations
and full access to internals.

Git is an Open Source project covered by the GNU General Public
License version 2 (some parts of it are under different licenses,
compatible with the GPLv2). It was originally written by Linus
Torvalds with help of a group of hackers around the net.

Please read the file INSTALL for installation instructions.

See Documentation/gittutorial.txt to get started, then see
Documentation/everyday.txt for a useful minimum set of commands, and
Documentation/git-commandname.txt for documentation of each command.
If git has been correctly installed, then the tutorial can also be
read with "man gittutorial" or "git help tutorial", and the
documentation of each command with "man git-commandname" or "git help
commandname".

CVS users may also want to read Documentation/gitcvs-migration.txt
("man gitcvs-migration" or "git help cvs-migration" if git is
installed).

Many Git online resources are accessible from http://git-scm.com/
including full documentation and Git related tools.

The user discussion and development of Git take place on the Git
mailing list -- everyone is welcome to post bug reports, feature
requests, comments and patches to git@vger.kernel.org (read
Documentation/SubmittingPatches for instructions on patch submission).
To subscribe to the list, send an email with just "subscribe git" in
the body to majordomo@vger.kernel.org. The mailing list archives are
available at http://news.gmane.org/gmane.comp.version-control.git/,
http://marc.info/?l=git and other archival sites.

The maintainer frequently sends the "What's cooking" reports that
list the current status of various development topics to the mailing
list.  The discussion following them give a good reference for
project status, development direction and remaining tasks.
