Support building Git with Visual Studio
The bits about .git/branches/* have been dropped from the series.
We may want to drop the support for it, but until that happens, the
tests should rely on the existence of the support to pass.

Update the Italian translation for Git v2.23.0 (l10n round 1), as
well as adding some minor localization fixes.
Signed-off-by: Alessandro Menti <alessandro.menti@alessandromenti.it>
Since 07b2c0eaca (config: learn the "onbranch:" includeIf condition,
2019-06-05), there is a potential catch-22 in the early config path: if
the `include.onbranch:` feature is used, Git assumes that the Git
directory has been initialized already. However, in the early config
code path that is not true.
One way to trigger this is to call the following commands in any
repository:
git config includeif.onbranch:refs/heads/master.path broken
git help -a
The symptom triggered by the `git help -a` invocation reads like this:
BUG: refs.c:1851: attempting to get main_ref_store outside of repository
Let's work around this, simply by ignoring the `includeif.onbranch:`
setting when parsing the config when the ref store has not been
initialized (yet).
Technically, there is a way to solve this properly: teach the refs
machinery to initialize the ref_store from a given gitdir/commondir pair
(which we _do_ have in the early config code path), and then use that in
`include_by_branch()`. This, however, is a pretty involved project, and
we're already in the feature freeze for Git v2.23.0.
Note: when calling above-mentioned two commands _outside_ of any Git
worktree (passing the `--global` flag to `git config`, as there is
obviously no repository config available), at the point when
`include_by_branch()` is called, `the_repository` is `NULL`, therefore
we have to be extra careful not to dereference it in that case.

Compilation fix.
* cb/xdiff-no-system-includes-in-dot-c:

Commit 7328482253 (repack: disable bitmaps-by-default if .keep files
exist, 2019-06-29) taught repack to prefer disabling bitmaps to
duplicating objects (unless bitmaps were asked for explicitly).
But there's an easier way to do this: if we keep passing the
--honor-pack-keep flag to pack-objects when auto-enabling bitmaps, then
pack-objects already makes the same decision (it will disable bitmaps
rather than duplicate). Better still, pack-objects can actually decide
to do so based not just on the presence of a .keep file, but on whether
that .keep file actually impacts the new pack we're making (so if we're
racing with a push or fetch, for example, their temporary .keep file
will not block us from generating bitmaps if they haven't yet updated
their refs).
And because repack uses the --write-bitmap-index-quiet flag, we don't
have to worry about pack-objects generating confusing warnings when it
does see a .keep file. We can confirm this by tweaking the .keep test to
check repack's stderr.

Depending on various config options, a full repack may not be able to
build a reachability bitmap index (e.g., if pack.packSizeLimit forces us
to write multiple packs). In these cases pack-objects may write a
warning to stderr.
Since 36eba0323d (repack: enable bitmaps by default on bare repos,
2019-03-14), we may generate these warnings even when the user did not
explicitly ask for bitmaps. This has two downsides:
- it can be confusing, if they don't know what bitmaps are
- a daemonized auto-gc will write this to its log file, and the
presence of the warning may suppress further auto-gc (until
gc.logExpiry has elapsed)
Let's have repack communicate to pack-objects that the choice to turn on
bitmaps was not made explicitly by the user, which in turn allows
pack-objects to suppress these warnings.

After our test snippet finishes, the .keep file is left in place, making

The iteration order of a hashmap is undefined, and may depend on things
like the exact set of items added, or the table has been grown or
shrunk. In the case of an oidmap, it even depends on endianness, because
we take the oid hash by casting sha1 bytes directly into an unsigned
int.
Let's sort the test-tool output from any hash iterators. In the case of
t0011, this is just future-proofing. But for t0016, it actually fixes a
reported failure on the big-endian s390 and nonstop ports.
I didn't bother to teach the helper functions to optionally sort output.
They are short enough that it's simpler to just repeat them inline for
the iteration tests than it is to add a --sort option.

A few tests printed 'errno' as an integer and compared with
hardcoded integers; this is obviously not portable.
A two things to note are:
- the string obtained by strerror() is not portable, and cannot be
used for the purpose of these tests.
- there unfortunately isn't a portable way to map error numbers to
error names.
As we only care about a few selected errors, just map the error
number to the name before emitting for comparison.

This is one of the few places where Git violates its own deprecation of
the dashed form. It is not necessary, either.
As of 595d59e2b5 (git.c: ignore pager.* when launching builtin as
dashed external, 2017-08-02), Git wants to ignore the pager.* config
setting when expanding aliases. So let's strip out the
check_pager_config(<command-name>) call from the copy-edited code.
This code actually made it into upstream git.git already, but it was
disabled in `#if 0 ... #endif` guards so far.

When compiling with Visual Studio, the projects' names are identical to
the executables modulo the extensions. Read: there will exist both a
directory called `git` as well as an executable called `git.exe` in the

lest they try to execute directories.

The default location for `.exe` files linked by Visual Studio depends on
the mode (debug vs release) and the architecture. Meaning: after a full
build, there is a `git.exe` in the top-level directory, but none of the
built-ins are linked..
When running a test script in Git Bash, it therefore would pick up the
wrong, say, `git-receive-pack.exe`: the one installed at the same time
as the Git Bash.
Absolutely not what we want. We want to have confidence that our test
covers the MSVC-built Git executables, and not some random stuff.

The entire idea of generating the VS solution makes only sense if we
generate it via Continuous Integration; otherwise potential users would
still have to download the entire Git for Windows SDK.
If we pre-generate the Visual Studio solution, Git can be built entirely
within Visual Studio, and the test scripts can be run in a regular Git
for Windows (e.g. the Portable Git flavor, which does not include a full
GCC toolchain and therefore weighs only about a tenth of Git for
Windows' SDK).
So let's just add a target in the Makefile that can be used to generate
said solution; The generated files will then be committed so that they
can be pushed to a branch ready to check out by Visual Studio users.
To make things even more useful, we also generate and commit other files
that are required to run the test suite, such as templates and
bin-wrappers: with this, developers can run the test suite in a regular
Git Bash after building the solution in Visual Studio.
Note: for this build target, we do not actually need to initialize the
`vcpkg` system, so we don't.

Based on the previous patches in this patch series that fixed the
generator for `.vcproj` files (which were used by Visual Studio prior to
2015 to define projects), this patch offers to generate project
definitions for neweer versions of Visual Studio (which use `.vcxproj`
files).
To that end, this patch copy-edits the generator of the `.vcproj`.
In addition, we now use the `vcpkg` system which allows us to build
Git's dependencies (e.g. curl, libexpat) conveniently. The support
scripts were introduced in the `jh/msvc` patch series, and with this
patch we initialize the `vcpkg` conditionally, in the `libgit` project's
`PreBuildEvent`. To allow for parallel building of the projects, we
therefore put `libgit` at the bottom of the project hierarchy.

Rather than swallowing the errors, it is better to have them in a file.
To make it obvious what this is about, use the file name
'msvc-build-makedryerrors.txt'.
Further, if the output is empty, simply delete that file. As we target
Git for Windows' SDK (which, unlike its predecessor msysGit, offers Perl
versions newer than 5.8), we can use the quite readable syntax `if -f -z
$ErrsFile` (available in Perl >=5.10).
Note that the file will contain the new values of the GIT_VERSION and
GITGUI_VERSION if they were generated by the make file. They are omitted
