As of Git v2.28.0, the diff for files staged via `git add -N` marks them as new files. Git GUI was ill-prepared for that, and this patch teaches Git GUI about them. Please note that this will not even fix things with v2.28.0, as the `rp/apply-cached-with-i-t-a` patches are required on Git's side, too.

Git's regular Makefile mentions that HOST_CPU should be defined when cross-compiling Git: https://github.com/git-for-windows/git/blob/37796bca76ef4180c39ee508ca3e42c0777ba444/Makefile#L438-L439 This is then used to set the GIT_HOST_CPU variable when compiling Git: https://github.com/git-for-windows/git/blob/37796bca76ef4180c39ee508ca3e42c0777ba444/Makefile#L1337-L1341 Then, when the user runs `git version --build-options`, it returns that value: https://github.com/git-for-windows/git/blob/37796bca76ef4180c39ee508ca3e42c0777ba444/help.c#L658 This commit adds the same functionality to the CMake configuration.

As reported in newren/git-filter-repo#225, it looks like 99 bytes is not really sufficient to represent e.g. the full path to Python when installed via Windows Store (and this path is used in the hasb bang line when installing scripts via `pip`). Let's increase it to what is probably the maximum sensible path size: MAX_PATH. This makes `parse_interpreter()` in line with what `lookup_prog()` handles.

We used to have that `make vcxproj` hack, but a hack it is.

Because `git subtree` (unlike most other `contrib` modules) is included as part of the standard release of Git for Windows, its stability should be verified as consistently as it is for the rest of git. By including the `git subtree` tests in the CI workflow, these tests are as much of a gate to merging and indicator of stability as the standard test suite.

Ensure key CMake option values are part of the CMake output to facilitate user support when tool updates impact the wider CMake actions, particularly ongoing 'improvements' in Visual Studio. These CMake displays perform the same function as the build-options.txt provided in the main Git for Windows. CMake is already chatty. The setting of CMAKE_EXPORT_COMPILE_COMMANDS is also reported. Include the environment's CMAKE_EXPORT_COMPILE_COMMANDS value which may have been propogated to CMake's internal value. Testing the CMAKE_EXPORT_COMPILE_COMMANDS processing can be difficult in the Visual Studio environment, as it may be cached in many places. The 'environment' may include the OS, the user shell, CMake's own environment, along with the Visual Studio presets and caches. See previous commit for arefacts that need removing for a clean test.

Start work on a new 'git survey' command to scan the repository for monorepo performance and scaling problems. The goal is to measure the various known "dimensions of scale" and serve as a foundation for adding additional measurements as we learn more about Git monorepo scaling problems. The initial goal is to complement the scanning and analysis performed by the GO-based 'git-sizer' (https://github.com/github/git-sizer) tool. It is hoped that by creating a builtin command, we may be able to take advantage of internal Git data structures and code that is not accessible from GO to gain further insight into potential scaling problems.

This option was added in fa93bb2 (MinGW: Fix stat definitions to work with MinGW runtime version 4.0, 2013-09-11), i.e. a _long_ time ago. So long, in fact, that it still targeted MinGW. But we switched to mingw-w64 in 2015, which seems not to share the problem, and therefore does not require a fix. Even worse: This flag is incompatible with UCRT64, which we are about to support by way of upstreaming `mingw-w64-git` to the MSYS2 project, see msys2/MINGW-packages#26470 for details. So let's send that option into its well-deserved retirement. Signed-off-by: Johannes Schindelin <johannes.schindelin@gmx.de>

When 'git survey' provides information to the user, this will be presented in one of two formats: plaintext and JSON. The JSON implementation will be delayed until the functionality is complete for the plaintext format. The most important parts of the plaintext format are headers specifying the different sections of the report and tables providing concreted data. Create a custom table data structure that allows specifying a list of strings for the row values. When printing the table, check each column for the maximum width so we can create a table of the correct size from the start. The table structure is designed to be flexible to the different kinds of output that will be implemented in future changes. Signed-off-by: Derrick Stolee <stolee@gmail.com>

On LLP64 systems, such as Windows, the size of `long`, `int`, etc. is only 32 bits (for backward compatibility). Git's use of `unsigned long` for file memory sizes in many places, rather than size_t, limits the handling of large files on LLP64 systems (commonly given as `>4GB`). Provide a minimum test for handling a >4GB file. The `hash-object` command, with the `--literally` and without `-w` option avoids writing the object, either loose or packed. This avoids the code paths hitting the `bigFileThreshold` config test code, the zlib code, and the pack code. Subsequent patches will walk the test's call chain, converting types to `size_t` (which is larger in LLP64 data models) where appropriate.

In bf2d5d8 (Don't let ld strip relocations, 2016-01-16) (picked from git-for-windows@6a237925bf10), Git for Windows introduced the `-Wl,-pic-executable` flag, specifying the exact entry point via `-e`. This required discerning between i686 and x86_64 code because the former required the symbol to be prefixed with an underscore, the latter did not. As per https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=10865, the specified symbols are already the default, though. So let's drop the overly-specific definition.

Now that we have explored objects by count, we can expand that a bit more to summarize the data for the on-disk and inflated size of those objects. This information is helpful for diagnosing both why disk space (and perhaps clone or fetch times) is growing but also why certain operations are slow because the inflated size of the abstract objects that must be processed is so large. Note: zlib-ng is slightly more efficient even at those small sizes. Even between zlib versions, there are slight differences in compression. To accommodate for that in the tests, not the exact numbers but some rough approximations are validated (the test should validate `git survey`, after all, not zlib).

Continue walking the code path for the >4GB `hash-object --literally` test. The `hash_object_file_literally()` function internally uses both `hash_object_file()` and `write_object_file_prepare()`. Both function signatures use `unsigned long` rather than `size_t` for the mem buffer sizes. Use `size_t` instead, for LLP64 compatibility. While at it, convert those function's object's header buffer length to `size_t` for consistency. The value is already upcast to `uintmax_t` for print format compatibility. Note: The hash-object test still does not pass. A subsequent commit continues to walk the call tree's lower level hash functions to identify further fixes.

Continue walking the code path for the >4GB `hash-object --literally`
test to the hash algorithm step for LLP64 systems.
This patch lets the SHA1DC code use `size_t`, making it compatible with
LLP64 data models (as used e.g. by Windows).
The interested reader of this patch will note that we adjust the
signature of the `git_SHA1DCUpdate()` function without updating _any_
call site. This certainly puzzled at least one reviewer already, so here
is an explanation:
This function is never called directly, but always via the macro
`platform_SHA1_Update`, which is usually called via the macro
`git_SHA1_Update`. However, we never call `git_SHA1_Update()` directly
in `struct git_hash_algo`. Instead, we call `git_hash_sha1_update()`,
which is defined thusly:
static void git_hash_sha1_update(git_hash_ctx *ctx,
const void *data, size_t len)
{
git_SHA1_Update(&ctx->sha1, data, len);
}
i.e. it contains an implicit downcast from `size_t` to `unsigned long`
(before this here patch). With this patch, there is no downcast anymore.
With this patch, finally, the t1007-hash-object.sh "files over 4GB hash
literally" test case is fixed.

Git for Windows uses MSYS2's Bash to run the test suite, which comes with benefits but also at a heavy price: on the plus side, MSYS2's POSIX emulation layer allows us to continue pretending that we are on a Unix system, e.g. use Unix paths instead of Windows ones, yet this is bought at a rather noticeable performance penalty. There *are* some more native ports of Unix shells out there, though, most notably BusyBox-w32's ash. These native ports do not use any POSIX emulation layer (or at most a *very* thin one, choosing to avoid features such as fork() that are expensive to emulate on Windows), and they use native Windows paths (usually with forward slashes instead of backslashes, which is perfectly legal in almost all use cases). And here comes the problem: with a $PWD looking like, say, C:/git-sdk-64/usr/src/git/t/trash directory.t5813-proto-disable-ssh Git's test scripts get quite a bit confused, as their assumptions have been shattered. Not only does this path contain a colon (oh no!), it also does not start with a slash. This is a problem e.g. when constructing a URL as t5813 does it: ssh://remote$PWD. Not only is it impossible to separate the "host" from the path with a $PWD as above, even prefixing $PWD by a slash won't work, as /C:/git-sdk-64/... is not a valid path. As a workaround, detect when $PWD does not start with a slash on Windows, and simply strip the drive prefix, using an obscure feature of Windows paths: if an absolute Windows path starts with a slash, it is implicitly prefixed by the drive prefix of the current directory. As we are talking about the current directory here, anyway, that strategy works. Signed-off-by: Johannes Schindelin <johannes.schindelin@gmx.de>

On Windows, the current working directory is pretty much guaranteed to contain a colon. If we feed that path to CVS, it mistakes it for a separator between host and port, though. This has not been a problem so far because Git for Windows uses MSYS2's Bash using a POSIX emulation layer that also pretends that the current directory is a Unix path (at least as long as we're in a shell script). However, that is rather limiting, as Git for Windows also explores other ports of other Unix shells. One of those is BusyBox-w32's ash, which is a native port (i.e. *not* using any POSIX emulation layer, and certainly not emulating Unix paths). So let's just detect if there is a colon in $PWD and punt in that case. Signed-off-by: Johannes Schindelin <johannes.schindelin@gmx.de>
…ITOR" In e3f7e01 (Revert "editor: save and reset terminal after calling EDITOR", 2021-11-22), we reverted the commit wholesale where the terminal state would be saved and restored before/after calling an editor. The reverted commit was intended to fix a problem with Windows Terminal where simply calling `vi` would cause problems afterwards. To fix the problem addressed by the revert, but _still_ keep the problem with Windows Terminal fixed, let's revert the revert, with a twist: we restrict the save/restore _specifically_ to the case where `vi` (or `vim`) is called, and do not do the same for any other editor. This should still catch the majority of the cases, and will bridge the time until the original patch is re-done in a way that addresses all concerns.

The `--stdin` option was a well-established paradigm in other commands, therefore we implemented it in `git reset` for use by Visual Studio. Unfortunately, upstream Git decided that it is time to introduce `--pathspec-from-file` instead.

In this time and age, AI is everywhere. However, it's sometimes not very easy to use. For green-field projects it works quite a bit better than for existing legacy projects. And Git's source code is _quite_ as legacy code as they come... 😁 Now, the only way how AI can be used efficiently with legacy code is by providing enough information by way of prompt context for the AI to have a chance to make any sense of the code. The structure and the architecture is, after all, not designed for AI, but rather the opposite: By virtue of having grown organically over two decades, there is no design that AI coding models would readily grasp. So here is a document that describes all kinds of aspects about this project. The idea is to help AI by providing information that it does not have ingrained in its weights. The idea is to provide information that a human prompter might take for granted, but no coding model will have been trained on specifically.

Rather than using private IFTTT Applets that send mails to this maintainer whenever a new version of a Git for Windows component was released, let's use the power of GitHub workflows to make this process publicly visible. This workflow monitors the Atom/RSS feeds, and opens a ticket whenever a new version was released. Note: Bash sometimes releases multiple patched versions within a few minutes of each other (i.e. 5.1p1 through 5.1p4, 5.0p15 and 5.0p16). The MSYS2 runtime also has a similar system. We can address those patches as a group, so we shouldn't get multiple issues about them.

Reintroduce the 'core.useBuiltinFSMonitor' config setting (originally added in 0a756b2 (fsmonitor: config settings are repository-specific, 2021-03-05)) after its removal from the upstream version of FSMonitor. Upstream, the 'core.useBuiltinFSMonitor' setting was rendered obsolete by "overloading" the 'core.fsmonitor' setting to take a boolean value. However, several applications (e.g., 'scalar') utilize the original config setting, so it should be preserved for a deprecation period before complete removal: * if 'core.fsmonitor' is a boolean, the user is correctly using the new config syntax; do not use 'core.useBuiltinFSMonitor'. * if 'core.fsmonitor' is unspecified, use 'core.useBuiltinFSMonitor'. * if 'core.fsmonitor' is a path, override and use the builtin FSMonitor if 'core.useBuiltinFSMonitor' is 'true'; otherwise, use the FSMonitor hook indicated by the path. Additionally, for this deprecation period, advise users to switch to using 'core.fsmonitor' to specify their use of the builtin FSMonitor. Signed-off-by: Victoria Dye <vdye@github.com>
