clean: show an error message when the path is too long
When `lstat()` failed, `git clean` would abort without an error
message, leaving the user quite puzzled.
In particular on Windows, where the default maximum path length is
quite small (yet there are ways to circumvent that limit in many
cases), it is very important that users be given an indication why
their command failed because of too long paths when it did.
This test case makes sure that a warning is issued that would have
helped the user who reported this issue:
https://github.com/git-for-windows/git/issues/521
Note that we temporarily set `core.longpaths = false` in the regression
test; this ensures forward-compatibility with the `core.longpaths`
feature that has not yet been upstreamed from Git for Windows.

rm: resolving by removal is not a warning-worthy event
When resolving a conflict on a path in favor of removing it, using
"git rm" on it is the standard way to do so. The user however is
greeted with a "needs merge" message during that operation:
The removal by "git rm" does get performed, but an uninitiated user
may find it confusing, "needs merge? so I need to resolve conflict
before being able to remove it???"
The message is coming from "update-index --refresh" that is called
internally to make sure "git rm" knows which paths are clean and
which paths are dirty, in order to prevent removal of paths modified
relative to the index without the "-f" option. We somehow ended up
not squelching this message which seeped through to the UI surface.
Use the same mechanism used by "git commit", "git describe", etc. to
squelch the message.
mingw: support spawning programs containing spaces in their names
On some older Windows versions (e.g. Windows 7), the CreateProcessW()
function does not really support spaces in its first argument,
lpApplicationName. But it supports passing NULL as lpApplicationName,
which makes it figure out the application from the (possibly quoted)
first argument of lpCommandLine.
Let's use that trick (if we are certain that the first argument matches
the executable's path) to support launching programs whose path contains
spaces.
We will abuse the test-fake-ssh.exe helper to verify that this works and
does not regress.

transport-helper: enforce atomic in push_refs_with_push
Teach transport-helper how to notice if skipping a ref during push would
violate atomicity on the client side. We notice that a ref would be
rejected, and choose not to send it, but don't notice that if the client
has asked for --atomic we are violating atomicity if all the other
pushes we are sending would succeed. Asking the server end to uphold
atomicity wouldn't work here as the server doesn't have any idea that we
tried to update a ref that's broken.
The added test-case is a succinct way to reproduce this issue that fails
today. The same steps work fine when we aren't using a transport-helper
to get to the upstream, i.e. when we've added a local repository as a

diff: munmap() file contents before running external diff
When running an external diff from, say, a diff tool, it is safe to
assume that we want to write the files in question. On Windows, that
means that there cannot be any other process holding an open handle to
said files, or even just a mapped region.
So let's make sure that `git diff` itself is not holding any open handle
to the files in question.
In fact, we will just release the file pair right away, as the external
diff uses the files we just wrote, so we do not need to hold the file
contents in memory anymore.

Lately Homebrew learned to automagically clean up information about
outdated packages during other 'brew' commands, which might be useful
for the avarage user, but is a waste of time in CI build jobs, because
the next build jobs will start from the exact same image containing
the same outdated packages anyway.
Export HOMEBREW_NO_INSTALL_CLEANUP=1 to disable this auto cleanup feature,
shaving off about 20-30s from the time needed to install dependencies
in our macOS build jobs on Travis CI.

Lately our GCC macOS build job on Travis CI has been erroring out
while installing dependencies with:
+brew link gcc@8
Error: No such keg: /usr/local/Cellar/gcc@8
The command "ci/install-dependencies.sh" failed and exited with 1 during .
Now, while gcc@8 is still pre-installed (but not linked) and would be
perfectly usable in the Travis CI macOS image we use [1], it's at
version 8.2. However, when installing dependencies we first
explicitly run 'brew update', which spends over two minutes to update
itself and information about the available packages, and it learns
about GCC 8.3. After that point gcc@8 exclusively refers to v8.3,
and, unfortunately, 'brew' is just too dumb to be able to do anything
with the still installed 8.2 package, and the subsequent 'brew link
gcc@8' fails. (Even 'brew uninstall gcc@8' fails with the same
error!)
Don't run 'brew update' to keep the already installed GCC 8.2 'brew
link'-able. Note that in addition we have to 'export
HOMEBREW_NO_AUTO_UPDATE=1' first, because 'brew' is so very helpful
that it would implicitly run update for us on the next 'brew install
<pkg>' otherwise.
Disabling 'brew update' has additional benefits:
- It shaves off 2-3mins from the ~4mins currently spent on
installing dependencies, and the macOS build jobs have always been
prone to exceeding the time limit on Travis CI.
- Our builds won't suddenly break because of the occasional Homebrew
breakages [2].
The drawback is that we'll be stuck with slightly older versions of
the packages that we install via Homebrew (Git-LFS 2.5.2 and Perforce
2018.1; they are currently at 2.7.2 and 2019.1, respectively). We
might want to reconsider this decision as time goes on and/or switch
to a more recent macOS image as they become available.

When run using GIT_TEST_PROTOCOL_VERSION=2, a test in t5551 fails
because 4 POSTs (probe, ls-refs, probe, fetch) are sent instead of 2
(probe, fetch).
One way to resolve this would be to relax the condition (from "= 2" to
greater than 1, say), but upon further inspection, the test probably
shouldn't be counting the number of POSTs. This test states that large
requests are split across POSTs, but this is not correct; the main
change is that chunked transfer encoding is used, but the request is
still contained within one POST. (The test coincidentally works because
Git indeed sends 2 POSTs in the case of a large request, but that is
because, as stated above, the first POST is a probing RPC - see
post_rpc() in remote-curl.c for more information.)
Therefore, instead of counting POSTs, check that chunked transfer
encoding is used. This also has the desirable side effect of passing
with GIT_TEST_PROTOCOL_VERSION=2.

On a case-insensitive filesystem, such as HFS+ or NTFS, it is possible
that the idea Bash has of the current directory differs in case from
what Git thinks it is. That's totally okay, though, and we should not
expect otherwise.
On Windows, for example, when you call
cd C:\GIT-SDK-64
in a PowerShell and there exists a directory called `C:\git-sdk-64`, the
current directory will be reported in all upper-case. Even in a Bash
that you might call from that PowerShell. Git, however, will have
normalized this via `GetFinalPathByHandle()`, and the expectation in
t0001 that the recorded gitdir will match what `pwd` says will be
violated.
Let's address this by comparing these paths in a case-insensitive
manner when `core.ignoreCase` is `true`.

The current semantic patch for COPY_ARRAY transforms memcpy(3) calls on
pointers, but Coccinelle distinguishes them from arrays. It already
contains three rules to handle the options for sizeof (i.e. source,
destination and type), and handling arrays as source and destination
would require four times as many rules if we enumerated all cases.
We also don't handle array subscripts, and supporting that would
increase the number of rules by another factor of four. (An isomorphism
telling Coccinelle that "sizeof x[...]" is equivalent to "sizeof *x"
would be nice..)
Support arrays and array subscripts, but keep the number of rules down
by adding normalization steps: First turn array subscripts into
derefences, then determine the types of expressions used with sizeof and
replace them with these types, and then convert the different possible
combinations of arrays and pointers with memcpy(3) to COPY_ARRAY.

The kwset functionality makes use of the obstack code, which expects to
be handed a function that can allocate large chunks of data. It expects
that function to accept a `size` parameter of type `long`.
This upsets GCC 8 on Windows, because `long` does not have the same
bit size as `size_t` there.
Now, the proper thing to do would be to switch to `size_t`. But this
would make us deviate from the "upstream" code even further, making it
hard to synchronize with newer versions, and also it would be quite
involved because that `long` type is so invasive in that code.

merge-recursive: restore accidentally dropped setting of path
In commit 8daec1df03de ("merge-recursive: switch from (oid,mode) pairs
to a diff_filespec", 2019-04-05), we actually switched from
(oid,mode,path) triplets to a diff_filespec -- but most callsites in the

focused on that. The oversight in the commit message apparently spilled
over to the code as well; one of the dozen or so callsites accidentally
dropped the setting of the path in the conversion. Restore the path
setting in that location.
Also, this pointed out that our testsuite was lacking a good rename/add
test, at least one that involved the need for merge content with the
rename. Add such a test, and since rename/add vs. add/rename could
possibly be important, redo the merge the opposite direction to make
sure we don't have issues with the direction of the merge. These
testcases failed before restoring the setting of path, but with the
paths appropriately set the testcases both pass.
