When core.sharedRepository is used, set_shared_perm() in path.c
needs lstat() to return the correct POSIX permissions.
The default for cygwin is core.ignoreCygwinFSTricks = false, which
means that the fast implementation in do_stat() is used instead of
lstat().
lstat() under cygwin uses the Windows security model to implement
POSIX-like permissions. The user, group or everyone bits can be set
individually.
do_stat() simplifes the file permission bits, and may return a wrong
value. The read-only attribute of a file is used to calculate the
permissions, resulting in either rw-r--r-- or r--r--r--
One effect of the simplified do_stat() is that t1301 fails.
Add a function cygwin_get_st_mode_bits() which returns the POSIX
permissions. When not compiling for cygwin, true_mode_bits() in
path.c is used.
Side note:
t1301 passes under cygwin 1.5.
The "user write" bit is synchronized with the "read only" attribute
of a file:
$ chmod 444 x
$ attrib x
A R C:\temp\pt\x
cygwin 1.7 would show
A C:\temp\pt\x

The previous macro was confusing to some, and did not include "cygwin" in
its name. The updated name more clearly expresses a choice of the
win32api implementation that shipped with version 1.5 of cygwin.

The cygwin project recently switched to a new implementation of the
windows api, now using header files from the mingw-64 project. These
new header files are incompatible with the way cygwin.c included the
old headers: cygwin.c can be compiled using the new or the older (mingw)
headers, but different files must be included in different order for each
to work. The new headers are in use only for the current release series
(based upon the v1.7.x dll version). The previous release series using
the v1.5 dll is kept available but unmaintained for use on older versions
of Windows. So, patch cygwin.c to use the new include ordering only if
the dll version is 1.7 or higher.

* jc/maint-cygwin-trust-executable-bit-default:
cygwin: trust executable bit by default
|
|
Earlier 7974843 (compat/cygwin.c: make runtime detection of lstat/stat
lessor impact, 2008-10-23) fixed the low-level "do we use cygwin specific
hacks for stat/lstat?" logic not to call into git_default_config() from
random codepaths that are typically very late in the program, to prevent
the call from potentially overwriting other variables that are initialized
from the configuration.
However, it forgot that on Cygwin, trust-executable-bit should default to
true.
Noticed by J6t, confirmed by Ramsay Jones, and the brown paper bag is on
Gitster's head.

The 'forced modes' test fails on cygwin because the post-update
hook loses it's executable bit when copied from the templates
directory by git-init. The template loses it's executable bit
because the lstat() function resolves to the "native Win32 API"
implementation.
This call to lstat() happens after git-init has set the "git_dir"
(so has_git_dir() returns true), but before the configuration has
been fully initialised. At this point git_config() does not find
any config files to parse and returns 0. Unfortunately, the code
used to determine the cygwin l/stat() function bindings did not
check the return from git_config() and assumed that the config
was complete and accessible once "git_dir" was set.
In order to fix the test, we simply change the binding code to
test the return value from git_config(), to ensure that it actually
had config values to read, before determining the requested binding.

The original patch that lead to an earlier commit adbc0b6 (cygwin: Use
native Win32 API for stat, 2008-09-30) did not call git_default_config()
and it was a good thing. The lazy config reading when lstat/stat is
called for the first time to find out if core.filemode is set can happen
anytime in the calling program. If it happens after the calling program
parsed the configuration file to prime its default parameter settings and
processed its command line parameters to tweak them, this will overwrite
the values set by the program with the values read from the config file.
This essentially reverts the code to the version as submitted by Mark,
with a bit more comments to clarify why we do not fall back on the default
configuration parser from git_cygwin_config().

Cygwin's POSIX emulation allows use of core.filemode true, unlike native
Window's implementation of stat / lstat, and Cygwin/git users who have
configured core.filemode true in various repositories will be very
unpleasantly surprised to find that git is no longer honoring that option.
So, this patch forces use of Cygwin's stat functions if core.filemode is
set true, regardless of any other considerations.

lstat/stat functions in Cygwin are very slow, because they try to emulate
some *nix things that Git does not actually need. This patch adds Win32
specific implementation of these functions for Cygwin.
This implementation handles most situation directly but in some rare cases
it falls back on the implementation provided for Cygwin. This is necessary
for two reasons:
- Cygwin has its own file hierarchy, so absolute paths used in Cygwin is
not suitable to be used Win32 API. cygwin_conv_to_win32_path can not be
used because it automatically dereference Cygwin symbol links, also it
causes extra syscall. Fortunately Git rarely use absolute paths, so we
always use Cygwin implementation for absolute paths.
- Support of symbol links. Cygwin stores symbol links as ordinary using
one of two possible formats. Therefore, the fast implementation falls
back to Cygwin functions if it detects potential use of symbol links.
The speed of this implementation should be the same as mingw_lstat for
common cases, but it is considerable slower when the specified file name
does not exist.
Despite all efforts to make the fast implementation as robust as possible,
it may not work well for some very rare situations. I am aware only one
situation: use Cygwin mount to bind unrelated paths inside repository
together. Therefore, the core.ignoreCygwinFSTricks configuration option is
provided, which controls whether native or Cygwin version of stat is used.
