When a requested feature cannot be activated because the version of

http: when using Secure Channel, ignore sslCAInfo by default
As of cURL v7.60.0, the Secure Channel backend can use the certificate
bundle provided via `http.sslCAInfo`, but that would override the
Windows Certificate Store. Since this is not desirable by default, let's
tell Git to not ask cURL to use that bundle by default when the `schannel`
backend was configured via `http.sslBackend`, unless
`http.schannelUseSSLCAInfo` overrides this behavior.

http: add support for disabling SSL revocation checks in cURL
This adds support for a new http.schannelCheckRevoke config value.
This config value is only used if http.sslBackend is set to "schannel",
which forces cURL to use the Windows Certificate Store when validating
server certificates associated with a remote server.
This config value should only be set to "false" if you are in an
environment where revocation checks are blocked by the network, with
no alternative options.
This is only supported in cURL 7.44 or later.
Note: originally, we wanted to call the config setting
`http.schannel.checkRevoke`. This, however, does not work: the `http.*`
config settings can be limited to specific URLs via `http.<url>.*`
(and this feature would mistake `schannel` for a URL).

upload-pack: fix broken if/else chain in config callback
The upload_pack_config() callback uses an if/else chain
like:
if (!strcmp(var, "a"))
...
else if (!strcmp(var, "b"))
...
etc
This works as long as the conditions are mutually exclusive,
but one of them is not. 20b20a22f8 (upload-pack: provide a
hook for running pack-objects, 2016-05-18) added:
else if (current_config_scope() != CONFIG_SCOPE_REPO) {
... check some more options ...
}
That was fine in that commit, because it came at the end of
the chain. But later, 10ac85c785 (upload-pack: add object
filtering for partial clone, 2017-12-08) did this:
else if (current_config_scope() != CONFIG_SCOPE_REPO) {
... check some more options ...
} else if (!strcmp("uploadpack.allowfilter", var))
...
We'd always check the scope condition first, meaning we'd
_only_ respect allowfilter when it's in the repo config. You
can see this with:
git -c uploadpack.allowfilter=true upload-pack . | head -1
which will not advertise the filter capability (but will
after this patch). We never noticed because:
- our tests always set it in the repo config
- in protocol v2, we use a different code path that
actually calls repo_config_get_bool() separately, so
that _does_ work. Real-world people experimenting with
this may be using v2.
The more recent uploadpack.allowrefinwant option is in the
same boat.
There are a few possible fixes:
1. Bump the scope conditional back to the bottom of the
chain. But that just means somebody else is likely to
make the same mistake later.
2. Make the conditional more like the others. I.e.:
else if (!current_config_scope() != CONFIG_SCOPE_REPO &&
!strcmp(var, "uploadpack.notallowedinrepo"))
This works, but the idea of the original structure was
that we may grow multiple sensitive options like this.
3. Pull it out of the chain entirely. The chain mostly
serves to avoid extra strcmp() calls after we've found
a match. But it's not worth caring about those. In the
worst case, when there isn't a match, we're already
hitting every strcmp (and this happens regularly for
stuff like "core.bare", etc).
This patch does (3).

Initialize archivers as soon as possible when running git-archive.
Various non-obvious behavior depends on having the archivers
initialized, such as determining the desired archival format from the
provided filename.
Since 08716b3c11 ("archive: refactor file extension format-guessing",
2011-06-21), archive_format_from_filename() has used the registered
archivers to match filenames (provided via --output) to archival
formats. However, when git-archive is executed with --remote, format
detection happens before the archivers have been registered. This causes
archives from remotes to always be generated as TAR files, regardless of
the actual filename (unless an explicit --format is provided).
This patch fixes that behavior; archival format is determined properly
from the output filename, even when --remote is used.

`git repack` can drop unreachable commits without further warning,
making the corresponding entries in `.git/shallow` invalid, which causes
serious problems when deepening the branches.
One scenario where unreachable commits are dropped by `git repack` is
when a `git fetch --prune` (or even a `git fetch` when a ref was
force-pushed in the meantime) can make a commit unreachable that was
reachable before.
Therefore it is not safe to assume that a `git repack -adlf` will keep
unreachable commits alone (under the assumption that they had not been
packed in the first place, which is an assumption at least some of Git's
code seems to make).
This is particularly important to keep in mind when looking at the
`.git/shallow` file: if any commits listed in that file become
unreachable, it is not a problem, but if they go missing, it *is* a
problem. One symptom of this problem is that a deepening fetch may now
fail with
fatal: error in object: unshallow <commit-hash>
To avoid this problem, let's prune the shallow list in `git repack` when
the `-d` option is passed, unless `-A` is passed, too (which would force
the now-unreachable objects to be turned into loose objects instead of
being deleted). Additionally, we also need to take `--keep-reachable`
and `--unpack-unreachable=<date>` into account.
Note: an alternative solution discussed during the review of this patch
was to teach `git fetch` to simply ignore entries in .git/shallow if the
corresponding commits do not exist locally. A quick test, however,
revealed that the .git/shallow file is written during a shallow *clone*,
in which case the commits do not exist, either, but the "shallow" line
*does* need to be sent. Therefore, this approach would be a lot more
finicky than the approach presented by the this patch.

The `prune_shallow()` function wants a full reachability check to be
completed before it goes to work, to ensure that all unreachable entries
are removed from the shallow file.
However, in the upcoming patch we do not even want to go that far. We
really only need to remove entries corresponding to pruned commits, i.e.
to commits that no longer exist.
Let's support that use case.
Rather than extending the signature of `prune_shallow()` to accept
another Boolean, let's turn it into a bit field and declare constants,
for readability.

repack: point out a bug handling stale shallow info
A `git fetch --prune` can turn previously-reachable objects unreachable,
even commits that are in the `shallow` list. A subsequent `git repack
-ad` will then unceremoniously drop those unreachable commits, and the
`shallow` list will become stale. This means that when we try to fetch
with a larger `--depth` the next time, we may end up with:
fatal: error in object: unshallow <commit-hash>

t5410 creates a sample script "alternate-refs", and sets

shouldn't work, as "." is not in our $PATH, and so we should
not find it.
However, due to a bug in run-command.c, we sometimes find it
anyway! Even more confusing, this bug is only in the
fork-based version of run-command. So the test passes on
Linux (etc), but fails on Windows.

Since commit e3a434468f (run-command: use the
async-signal-safe execv instead of execvp, 2017-04-19),
prepare_cmd() does its own PATH lookup for any commands we
run (on non-Windows platforms).
However, its logic does not match the old execvp call when
we fail to find a matching entry in the PATH. Instead of
feeding the name directly to execv, execvp would consider
that an ENOENT error. By continuing and passing the name
directly to execv, we effectively behave as if "." was
included at the end of the PATH. This can have confusing and
even dangerous results.
The fix itself is pretty straight-forward. There's a new
test in t0061 to cover this explicitly, and I've also added
a duplicate of the ENOENT test to ensure that we return the
correct errno for this case.

mingw: fix getcwd when the parent directory cannot be queried
`GetLongPathName()` function may fail when it is unable to query
the parent directory of a path component to determine the long name
for that component. It happens, because it uses `FindFirstFile()`
function for each next short part of path. The `FindFirstFile()`
requires `List Directory` and `Synchronize` desired access for a calling
process.
In case of lacking such permission for some part of path,
the `GetLongPathName()` returns 0 as result and `GetLastError()`
returns ERROR_ACCESS_DENIED.
`GetFinalPathNameByHandle()` function can help in such cases, because
it requires `Read Attributes` and `Synchronize` desired access to the
target path only.
The `GetFinalPathNameByHandle()` function was introduced on
`Windows Server 2008/Windows Vista`. So we need to load it dynamically.
`CreateFile()` parameters:
`lpFileName` = path to the current directory
`dwDesiredAccess` = 0 (it means `Read Attributes` and `Synchronize`)
`dwShareMode` = FILE_SHARE_READ | FILE_SHARE_WRITE | FILE_SHARE_DELETE
(it prevents `Sharing Violation`)
`lpSecurityAttributes` = NULL (default security attributes)
`dwCreationDisposition` = OPEN_EXISTING
(required to obtain a directory handle)
`dwFlagsAndAttributes` = FILE_FLAG_BACKUP_SEMANTICS
(required to obtain a directory handle)
`hTemplateFile` = NULL (when opening an existing file or directory,
`CreateFile` ignores this parameter)
The string that is returned by `GetFinalPathNameByHandle()` function
uses the \\?\ syntax. To skip the prefix and convert backslashes
to slashes, the `normalize_ntpath()` mingw function will be used.
Note: `GetFinalPathNameByHandle()` function returns a final path.
It is the path that is returned when a path is fully resolved.
For example, for a symbolic link named "C:\tmp\mydir" that points to
"D:\yourdir", the final path would be "D:\yourdir".

When switching the current working directory, say, in PowerShell, it is
quite possible to use a different capitalization than the one that is
recorded on disk. While doing the same in `cmd.exe` adjusts the
capitalization magically, that does not happen in PowerShell so that
`getcwd()` returns the current directory in a different way than is
recorded on disk.
Typically this creates no problems except when you call
git log .
in a subdirectory called, say, "GIT/" but you switched to "Git/" and
your `getcwd()` reports the latter, then Git won't understand that you
wanted to see the history as per the `GIT/` subdirectory but it thinks you
wanted to see the history of some directory that may have existed in the
past (but actually never did).
So let's be extra careful to adjust the capitalization of the current
directory before working with it.

When we access IPv6-related functions, we load the corresponding system
library using the `LoadLibrary()` function, which is not the recommended
way to load system libraries.
In practice, it does not make a difference: the `ws2_32.dll` library
containing the IPv6 functions is already loaded into memory, so
LoadLibrary() simply reuses the already-loaded library.
Still, recommended way is recommended way, so let's use that instead.
While at it, also adjust the code in contrib/ that loads system libraries.
