Recently the Git for Windows project started the upgrade process to
a MSYS2 runtime version based on Cygwin v3.x.
This has the very notable consequence that `$(uname -r)` no longer
reports a version starting with "2", but a version with "3".
That breaks our build, as df5218b4c30b (config.mak.uname: support MSys2,
2016-01-13) simply did not expect the version reported by `uname -r` to
depend on the underlying Cygwin version: it expected the reported
version to match the "2" in "MSYS2".
So let's invert that test case to test for *anything else* than a
version starting with "1" (for MSys). That should safeguard us for the
future, even if Cygwin ends up releasing versionsl like 314.272.65536.

Makefile: use `git ls-files` to list header files, if possible
In d85b0dff72 (Makefile: use `find` to determine static header
dependencies, 2014-08-25), we switched from a static list of header
files to a dynamically-generated one, asking `find` to enumerate them.
Back in those days, we did not use `$(LIB_H)` by default, and many a
`make` implementation seems smart enough not to run that `find` command
in that case, so it was deemed okay to run `find` for special targets
requiring this macro.
However, as of ebb7baf02f (Makefile: add a hdr-check target,
2018-09-19), $(LIB_H) is part of a global rule and therefore must be
expanded. Meaning: this `find` command has to be run upon every
`make` invocation. In the presence of many a worktree, this can tax the
developers' patience quite a bit.
Even in the absence of worktrees or other untracked files and
directories, the cost of I/O to generate that list of header files is
simply a lot larger than a simple `git ls-files` call.
Therefore, just like in 335339758c (Makefile: ask "ls-files" to list
source files if available, 2011-10-18), we now prefer to use `git
ls-files` to enumerate the header files to enumerating them via `find`,
falling back to the latter if the former failed (which would be the case
e.g. in a worktree that was extracted from a source .tar file rather
than from a clone of Git's sources).
This has one notable consequence: we no longer include `command-list.h`
in `LIB_H`, as it is a generated file, not a tracked one, but that is
easily worked around. Of the three sites that use `LIB_H`, two
(`LOCALIZED_C` and `CHK_HDRS`) already handle generated headers
separately. In the third, the computed-dependency fallback, we can just
add in a reference to $(GENERATED_H).
Likewise, we no longer include not-yet-tracked header files in `LIB_H`.
Given the speed improvements, these consequences seem a comparably small
price to pay.

built-in rebase: set ORIG_HEAD just once, before the rebase
Technically, the scripted version set ORIG_HEAD only in two spots (which
really could have been one, because it called `git checkout $onto^0` to
start the rebase and also if it could take a shortcut, and in both cases
it called `git update-ref $orig_head`).
Practically, it *implicitly* reset ORIG_HEAD whenever `git reset --hard`
was called.
However, what we really want is that it is set exactly once, at the

built-in rebase: no need to check out `onto` twice
In the case that the rebase boils down to a fast-forward, the built-in
rebase reset the working tree twice: once to start the rebase at `onto`,
then realizing that the original (pre-rebase) HEAD was an ancestor and
we basically already fast-forwarded to the post-rebase HEAD,
`reset_head()` was called to update the original ref and to point HEAD
back to it.
That second `reset_head()` call does not need to touch the working tree,
though, as it does not change the actual tip commit (and therefore the
working tree should stay unchanged anyway): only the ref needs to be
updated (because the rebase detached the HEAD, and we want to go back to
the branch on which the rebase was started).
But that second `reset_head()` was called without the flag to leave the
working tree alone (the reason: when that call was introduced, that flag
was not yet even thought of). Let's avoid that unnecessary work by
passing that flag.

When transmitting and receiving POSTs for protocol v0 and v1,
remote-curl uses post_rpc() (and associated functions), but when doing
the same for protocol v2, it uses a separate set of functions
(proxy_rpc() and others). Besides duplication of code, this has caused
at least one bug: the auth retry mechanism that was implemented in v0/v1
was not implemented in v2.
To fix this issue and avoid it in the future, make remote-curl also use
post_rpc() when handling protocol v2. Because line lengths are written
to the HTTP request in protocol v2 (unlike in protocol v0/v1), this
necessitates changes in post_rpc() and some of the functions it uses;
perform these changes too.
A test has been included to ensure that the code for both the unchunked
and chunked variants of the HTTP request is exercised.
Note: stateless_connect() has been updated to use the lower-level packet
reading functions instead of struct packet_reader. The low-level control
is necessary here because we cannot change the destination buffer of
struct packet_reader while it is being used; struct packet_buffer has a
peeking mechanism which relies on the destination buffer being present
in between a peek and a read.

After completing a bisection, we print out the commit we found using an
internal version of diff-tree. The result is aesthetically lacking:
- it shows a raw diff, which is generally less informative for human
readers than "--stat --summary" (which we already decided was nice
for humans in format-patch's output).
- by not abbreviating hashes, the result is likely to wrap on most
people's terminals
- we don't use "-r", so if the commit touched files in a directory,
you only get to see the top-level directory mentioned
- we don't specify "--cc" or similar, so merges print nothing (not
even the commit message!)
Even though bisect might be driven by scripts, there's no reason to
consider this part of the output as machine-readable (if anything, the
initial "$hash is the first bad commit" might be parsed, but we won't
touch that here). Let's make it prettier and more informative for a
human reading the output.
While we're tweaking the options, let's also switch to using the diff
"ui" config. If we're accepting that this is human-readable output, then
we should respect the user's options for how to display it.
Note that we have to touch a few tests in t6030. These check bisection
in a corrupted repository (it's missing a subtree). They didn't fail
with the previous code, because it didn't actually recurse far enough in
the diff to find the broken tree. But now we'll see the corruption and
complain.
Adjusting the tests to expect the die() is the best fix. We still
confirm that we're able to bisect within the broken repo. And we'll
still print "$hash is the first bad commit" as usual before dying;
showing that is a reasonable outcome in a corrupt repository (and was
what might happen already, if the root tree was corrupt).

Commit e22278c0a0 (bisect: display first bad commit without forking a

setting options in the rev_info struct (and explaining in comments how
they map to command-line options), we can just pass the command-line
options to setup_revisions().
This is shorter, easier to change, and less likely to break if
revision.c internals change.
Note that we unconditionally set the output format to "raw". The
conditional in the original code didn't actually do anything useful,
since nobody had an opportunity to set the format to anything.

Makefile: allow for combining DEVELOPER=1 and CFLAGS="..."
Ever since the DEVELOPER=1 facility introduced there's been no way to
have custom CFLAGS (e.g. CFLAGS="-O0 -g -ggdb3") while still
benefiting from the set of warnings and assertions DEVELOPER=1
enables.
This is because the semantics of variables in the Makefile are such
that the user setting CFLAGS overrides anything we set, including what
we're doing in config.mak.dev[1].
So let's introduce a "DEVELOPER_CFLAGS" variable in config.mak.dev and
add it to ALL_CFLAGS. Before this the ALL_CFLAGS variable
would (basically, there's some nuance we won't go into) be set to:
$(CPPFLAGS) [$(CFLAGS) *or* $(CFLAGS) in config.mak.dev] $(BASIC_CFLAGS) $(EXTRA_CPPFLAGS)
The reason for putting DEVELOPER_CFLAGS first is to allow for
selectively overriding something DEVELOPER=1 brings in. On both GCC
and Clang later settings override earlier ones. E.g. "-Wextra
-Wno-extra" will enable no "extra" warnings, but not if those two
arguments are reversed.
Examples of things that weren't possible before, but are now:
# Use -O0 instead of -O2 for less painful debuggng
DEVELOPER=1 CFLAGS="-O0 -g"
# DEVELOPER=1 plus -Wextra, but disable some of the warnings
DEVELOPER=1 DEVOPTS="no-error extra-all" CFLAGS="-O0 -g -Wno-unused-parameter"
The reason for the patches leading up to this one re-arranged the
various *FLAGS assignments and includes is just for readability. The
Makefile supports assignments out of order, e.g.:
$ cat Makefile
X = $(A) $(B) $(C)
A = A
B = B
include c.mak
all:
@echo $(X)
$ cat c.mak
C=C
$ make
A B C
So we could have gotten away with the much smaller change of changing
"CFLAGS" in config.mak.dev to "DEVELOPER_CFLAGS" and adding that to
ALL_CFLAGS earlier in the Makefile "before" the config.mak.*
includes. But I think it's more readable to use variables "after"
they're included.
Makefile: move the setting of *FLAGS closer to "include"
Move the setting of variables like CFLAGS down past settings like
"prefix" and default programs like "TAR" to just before we do the
include from "config.mak.*".
There's no functional changes here yet, but move note that
"ALL_CFLAGS" and "ALL_LDFLAGS" are moved below the include. A
follow-up change will tweak those depending on a variable set in
config.mak.dev.

When "--no-index" is in effect (or implied by the arguments), git-diff
jumps early to a special code path to perform that diff. This means we
miss out on some settings like enabling --ext-diff and --textconv by
default.
Let's jump to the no-index path _after_ we've done more setup on
rev.diffopt. Since some of the options don't affect us (e.g., items
related to the index), let's re-order the setup into two blocks (see the
in-code comments).
Note that we also need to stop re-initializing the diffopt struct in
diff_no_index(). This should not be necessary, as it will already have
been initialized by cmd_diff() (and there are no other callers). That in
turn lets us drop the "repository" argument from diff_no_index (which
never made much sense, since the whole point is that you don't need a

In addition to the usual printf-style API, trace2 provides higer-level
event verbs with fixed-fields allowing structured data to be written.
This makes post-processing and analysis easier for external tools.
Trace2 defines 3 output targets. These are set using the environment
variables "GIT_TR2", "GIT_TR2_PERF", and "GIT_TR2_EVENT". These may be
set to "1" or to an absolute pathname (just like the current GIT_TRACE).
* GIT_TR2 is intended to be a replacement for GIT_TRACE and logs command
summary data.
* GIT_TR2_PERF is intended as a replacement for GIT_TRACE_PERFORMANCE.
It extends the output with columns for the command process, thread,
repo, absolute and relative elapsed times. It reports events for
child process start/stop, thread start/stop, and per-thread function
nesting.
* GIT_TR2_EVENT is a new structured format. It writes event data as a
series of JSON records.
