Commit f2f0267 (archive-tar: use xsnprintf for trivial
formatting, 2015-09-24) converted cases of "sprintf" to
"xsnprintf", but accidentally left one as just "snprintf".
This meant that we could silently truncate the resulting
buffer instead of flagging an error.
In practice, this is impossible to achieve, as we are
formatting a ustar checksum, which can be at most 7
characters. But the point of xsnprintf is to document and
check for "should be impossible" conditions; this site was
just accidentally mis-converted during f2f0267.

Windows: only add a no-op pthread_sigmask() when needed
In f924b52 (Windows: add pthread_sigmask() that does nothing,
2016-05-01), we introduced a no-op for Windows. However, this breaks
building Git in Git for Windows' SDK because pthread_sigmask() is
already a no-op there, #define'd in the pthread_signal.h header in
/mingw64/x86_64-w64-mingw32/include/.
Let's wrap the definition of pthread_sigmask() in a guard that skips
it when compiling with MinGW-w64' headers.

For some reason, the definition of the MINGW version of
`mark_as_git_dir()` slipped into this developer's patch series to
support building Git for Windows.
As the `mark_as_git_dir()` function is not needed at all anymore (it was
used originally to support the core.hideDotFiles = gitDirOnly setting,
but we now use a different method to support that case), let's just
remove it.
Signed-off-by: Johannes Schindelin <johannes.schindelin@gmx.de> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
On Unix (and Linux), files and directories whose names start with a dot
are usually not shown by default. This convention is used by Git: the
.git/ directory should be left alone by regular users, and only accessed
through Git itself.
On Windows, no such convention exists. Instead, there is an explicit flag
to mark files or directories as hidden.
In the early days, Git for Windows did not mark the .git/ directory (or
for that matter, any file or directory whose name starts with a dot)
hidden. This lead to quite a bit of confusion, and even loss of data.
Consequently, Git for Windows introduced the core.hideDotFiles setting,
with three possible values: true, false, and dotGitOnly, defaulting to
marking only the .git/ directory as hidden.
The rationale: users do not need to access .git/ directly, and indeed (as
was demonstrated) should not really see that directory, either. However,
not all dot files should be hidden by default, as e.g. Eclipse does not
show them (and the user would therefore be unable to see, say, a
.gitattributes file).
In over five years since the last attempt to bring this patch into core
Git, a slightly buggy version of this patch has served Git for Windows'
users well: no single report indicated problems with the hidden .git/
directory, and the stream of problems caused by the previously non-hidden
.git/ directory simply stopped. The bugs have been fixed during the
process of getting this patch upstream.
Note that there is a funny quirk we have to pay attention to when
creating hidden files: we use Win32's _wopen() function which
transmogrifies its arguments and hands off to Win32's CreateFile()
function. That latter function errors out with ERROR_ACCESS_DENIED (the
equivalent of EACCES) when the equivalent of the O_CREAT flag was passed
and the file attributes (including the hidden flag) do not match an
existing file's. And _wopen() accepts no parameter that would be
transmogrified into said hidden flag. Therefore, we simply try again
without O_CREAT.
A slightly different method is required for our fopen()/freopen()
function as we cannot even *remove* the implicit O_CREAT flag.
Therefore, we briefly mark existing files as unhidden when opening them
via fopen()/freopen().
The ERROR_ACCESS_DENIED error can also be triggered by opening a file
that is marked as a system file (which is unlikely to be tracked in
Git), and by trying to create a file that has *just* been deleted and is
awaiting the last open handles to be released (which would be handled
better by the "Try again?" logic, a story for a different patch series,
though). In both cases, it does not matter much if we try again without
the O_CREAT flag, read: it does not hurt, either.
For details how ERROR_ACCESS_DENIED can be triggered, see
https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/aa363858

rebase--interactive: avoid empty list in shell for-loop
The $strategy_opts variable contains a space-separated list
of strategy options, each individually shell-quoted. To loop
over each, we "unwrap" them by doing an eval like:
eval '
for opt in '"$strategy_opts"'
do
...
done
'
Note the quoting that means we expand $strategy_opts inline
in the code to be evaluated (which is the right thing
because we want the IFS-split and de-quoting). If the
variable is empty, however, we ask the shell to eval the
following code:
for opt in
do
...
done
without anything between "in" and "do". Most modern shells
are happy to treat that like a noop, but reportedly ksh88 on
AIX considers it a syntax error. So let's catch the case
that the variable is empty and skip the eval altogether
(since we know the loop would be a noop anyway).

test-lib-functions.sh: rewrite test_seq without Perl
Rewrite the 'seq' imitation using only commands and features that
are typically found built into modern POSIX shells, instead of
relying on Perl to run a single-liner script.
88d50724 (am --skip: revert changes introduced by failed 3way merge,
2015-06-06), unlike all the other patches in the series, forgot to
quote the output from "$(git ls-files -u)" when using it as the
argument to "test -z", leading to a syntax error on platforms whose
test does not interpret "test -z" (no other arguments) as testing if
a string "-z" is the null string (which GNU test and test that is
built into bash and dash seem to do).
Note that $(git ls-files -u | wc -l) is deliberately left unquoted,
as some implementations of "wc -l" includes extra blank characters
in its output and cannot be compared as string, i.e. "test 0 = $(...)".

test-lib-functions.sh: remove misleading comment on test_seq
We never used the "letters" form since we came up with "test_seq" to
replace use of non-portable "seq" in our test script, which we
introduced it at d17cf5f3 (tests: Introduce test_seq, 2012-08-04).
We use this helper to either iterate for N times (i.e. the values on
the lines do not even matter), or just to get N distinct strings
(i.e. the values on the lines themselves do not really matter, but
we care that they are different from each other and reproducible).
Stop promising that we may allow using "letters"; this would open an
easier reimplementation that does not rely on $PERL, if somebody
later wants to.
The test uses the 'z' option, i.e. "compress the output while at
it", which is GNUism and not portable.

characters whose final bytes is an ASCII '\' (0x5c), and they

The last test added to 't5510-fetch' in 0898c9628104 (fetch: release
pack files before garbage-collecting, 2016-01-13) may sporadically
trigger following error message from the test harness:
rm: cannot remove 'trash directory.t5510-fetch/auto-gc/.git': Directory not empty
The test in question forces an auto-gc, which, if the system supports
it, runs in the background by default, and occasionally takes long
enough for the test to finish and for 'test_done' to start
housekeeping. This can lead to the test's 'git gc --auto' in the
background and 'test_done's 'rm -rf $trash' in the foreground racing
each other to create and delete files and directories. It might just
happen that 'git gc' re-creates a directory that 'rm -rf' already
visited and removed, which ultimately triggers the above error.
Disable detaching the auto-gc process to ensure that it finishes
before the test can continue, thus avoiding this racy situation.
