In the `git add -i` command, we show unique prefixes of the commands and
files, to give an indication what prefix would select them.
Naturally, the C implementation looks a lot different than the Perl
implementation: in Perl, a trie is much easier implemented, while we
already have a pretty neat hashmap implementation in C that we use for
the purpose of storing (not necessarily unique) prefixes.
The idea: for each item that we add, we generate prefixes starting with
the first letter, then the first two letters, then three, etc, until we
find a prefix that is unique (or until the prefix length would be
longer than we want). If we encounter a previously-unique prefix on the
way, we adjust that item's prefix to make it unique again (or we mark it
as having no unique prefix if we failed to find one). These partial
prefixes are stored in a hash map (for quick lookup times).
To make sure that this function works as expected, we add a test using a
special-purpose test helper that was added for that purpose.
Note: We expect the list of prefix items to be passed in as a list of
pointers rather than as regular list to avoid having to copy information
(the actual items will most likely contain more information than just
the name and the length of the unique prefix, but passing in `struct
prefix_item *` would not allow for that).

The reason why we did not start with the main loop to begin with is that
it is the first user of `list_and_choose()`, which uses the `list()`
function that we conveniently introduced for use by the `status`
command.
Apart from the "and choose" part, there are more differences between the
way the `status` command calls the `list_and_choose()` function in the
Perl version of `git add -i` compared to the other callers of said
function. The most important ones:
- The list is not only shown, but the user is also asked to make a
choice, possibly selecting multiple entries.
- The list of items is prefixed with a marker indicating what items have
been selected, if multi-selection is allowed.
- Initially, for each item a unique prefix (if there exists any within
the given parameters) is determined, and shown in the list, and
accepted as a shortcut for the selection.
These features will be implemented later, except the part where the user
can choose a command. At this stage, though, the built-in `git add -i`
still only supports the `status` command, with the remaining commands to
follow over the course of the next commits.
In addition, we also modify `list()` to support displaying the commands
in columns, even if there is currently only one.
The Perl script `git-add--interactive.perl` mixed the purposes of the
"list" and the "and choose" part into the same function. In the C
version, we will keep them separate instead, calling the `list()`
function from the `list_and_choose()` function.
Note that we only have a prompt ending in a single ">" at this stage;
later commits will add commands that display a double ">>" to indicate
that the user is in a different loop than the main one.

This implements the `status` command of `git add -i`. The data
structures introduced in this commit will be extended as needed later.
At this point, we re-implement only part of the `list_and_choose()`
function of the Perl script `git-add--interactive.perl` and call it
`list()`. It does not yet color anything, or do columns, or allow user
input.
Over the course of the next commits, we will introduce a
`list_and_choose()` function that uses `list()` to display the list of
options and let the user choose one or more of the displayed items. This
will be used to implement the main loop of the built-in `git add -i`, at
which point the new `status` command can actually be used.
Note that we pass the list of items as a `struct item **` as opposed to
a `struct item *`, to allow for the actual items to contain much more
information than merely the name.

Make the diffstat interface (namely, the diffstat_t struct and
compute_diffstat) no longer be internal to diff.c and allow it to be used
by other parts of git.
This is helpful for code that may want to easily extract information
from files using the diff machinery, while flushing it differently from
how the show_* functions used by diff_flush() do it. One example is the

This is hardly the first conversion of a Git command that is implemented
as a script to a built-in. So far, the most successful strategy for such
conversions has been to add a built-in helper and call that for more and
more functionality from the script, as more and more parts are
converted.
With the interactive add, we choose a different strategy. The sole
reason for this is that on Windows (where such a conversion has the most
benefits in terms of speed and robustness) we face the very specific
problem that a `system()` call in Perl seems to close `stdin` in the
parent process when the spawned process consumes even one character from
`stdin`. And that just does not work for us here, as it would stop the
main loop as soon as any interactive command was performed by the
helper. Which is almost all of the commands in `git add -i`.
It is almost as if Perl told us once again that it does not want us to
use it on Windows.
Instead, we follow the opposite route where we start with a bare-bones
version of the built-in interactive add, guarded by the new
`add.interactive.useBuiltin` config variable, and then add more and more
functionality to it, until it is feature complete.
At this point, the built-in version of `git add -i` only states that it
cannot do anything yet ;-)

On a case-insensitive filesystem, such as HFS+ or NTFS, it is possible

Teach register_rename_src() to see if new file pair
can simply be appended to the rename_src[] array before
performing the binary search to find the proper insertion
point.
This is a performance optimization. This routine is called
during run_diff_files in status and the caller is iterating
over the sorted index, so we should expect to be able to
append in the normal case. The existing insert logic is
preserved so we don't have to assume that, but simply take
advantage of it if possible.

When working in the root directory of a file share (this is only
possible in Git Bash and Powershell, but not in CMD), the current
directory is reported without a trailing slash.
This is different from Unix and standard Windows directories: both / and
C:\ are reported with a trailing slash as current directories.
If a Git worktree is located there, Git is not quite prepared for that:
while it does manage to find the .git directory/file, it returns as
length of the top-level directory's path *one more* than the length of
the current directory, and setup_git_directory_gently() would then
return an undefined string as prefix.
In practice, this undefined string usually points to NUL bytes, and does
not cause much harm. Under rare circumstances that are really involved
to reproduce (and not reliably so), the reported prefix could be a
suffix string of Git's exec path, though.
A careful analysis determined that this bug is unlikely to be
exploitable, therefore we mark this as a regular bug fix.

On Windows, there are several categories of absolute paths. One such
category starts with a backslash and is implicitly relative to the
drive associated with the current working directory. Example:
c:
git clone https://github.com/git-for-windows/git \G4W
should clone into C:\G4W.
There is currently a problem with that, in that mingw_mktemp() does not
expect the _wmktemp() function to prefix the absolute path with the
drive prefix, and as a consequence, the resulting path does not fit into
the originally-passed string buffer. The symptom is a "Result too large"
error.

A very common assumption in Git's source code base is that
offset_1st_component() returns either 0 for relative paths, or 1 for
absolute paths that start with a slash. In other words, the return value
is either 0 or points just after the dir separator.
This assumption is not fulfilled when calling offset_1st_component()
e.g. on UNC paths on Windows, e.g. "//my-server/my-share". In this case,
offset_1st_component() returns the length of the entire string (which is
correct, because stripping the last "component" would not result in a
valid directory), yet the return value still does not point just after a
dir separator.
This assumption is most prominently seen in the
setup_git_directory_gently_1() function, where we want to append a
".git" component and simply assume that there is already a dir
separator. In the UNC example given above, this assumption is incorrect.
As a consequence, Git will fail to handle a worktree at the top of a UNC
share correctly.
Let's fix this by adding a dir separator specifically for that case: we
found that there is no first component in the path and it does not end
in a dir separator? Then add it.

After importing anything with fast-import, we should always let the
garbage collector do its job, since the objects are written to disk
inefficiently.
This brings down an initial import of http://selenic.com/hg from about
230 megabytes to about 14.
In the future, we may want to make this configurable on a per-remote

Just like with other Git commands, this option makes it read the paths
from the standard input. It comes in handy when resetting many, many
paths at once and wildcards are not an option (e.g. when the paths are
generated by a tool).
Note: we first parse the entire list and perform the actual reset action
only in a second phase. Not only does this make things simpler, it also
helps performance, as do_diff_cache() traverses the index and the
(sorted) pathspecs in simultaneously to avoid unnecessary lookups.
This feature is marked experimental because it is still under review in
the upstream Git project.

If Git were installed in a path containing non-ASCII characters,
commands such as git-am and git-submodule, which are implemented as
externals, would fail to launch with the following error:
> fatal: 'am' appears to be a git command, but we were not
> able to execute it. Maybe git-am is broken?
This was due to lookup_prog not being Unicode-aware. It was somehow
missed in 2ee5a1a14a.
Note that the only problem in this function was calling
GetFileAttributes instead of GetFileAttributesW. The calls to access()
were fine because access() is a macro which resolves to mingw_access,
which already handles Unicode correctly. But I changed lookup_prog to
use _waccess directly so that we only convert the path to UTF-16 once.
