Edward Thomson f2b114ba 2020-03-08T18:11:45 win32: introduce relative path handling function Add a function that takes a (possibly) relative UTF-8 path and emits a UTF-16 path with forward slashes translated to backslashes. If the given path is, in fact, absolute, it will be translated to absolute path handling rules.
Edward Thomson fb7da154 2020-03-08T16:34:23 win32: clarify usage of path canonicalization funcs The path canonicalization functions on win32 are intended to canonicalize absolute paths; those with prefixes. In other words, things start with drive letters (`C:\`), share names (`\\server\share`), or other prefixes (`\\?\`). This function removes leading `..` that occur after the prefix but before the directory/file portion (eg, turning `C:\..\..\..\foo` into `C:\foo`). This translation is not appropriate for local paths.
Edward Thomson fe1fb36e 2019-01-13T21:10:50 win32: move type definitions for improved inclusion Move some win32 type definitions to a standalone file so that they can be included before other header files try to use the definitions.
Edward Thomson b2e85f98 2018-10-17T08:48:43 win32: rename `git_win32__canonicalize_path` The internal API `git_win32__canonicalize_path` is far, far too easily confused with the internal API `git_win32_path_canonicalize`. The former removes the namespace prefix from a path (eg, given `\\?\C:\Temp\foo`, it returns `C:\Temp\foo`, and given `\\?\UNC\server\share`, it returns `\\server\share`). As such, rename it to `git_win32_path_remove_namespace`. `git_win32_path_canonicalize` remains unchanged.

Patrick Steinhardt 0c7f49dd 2017-06-30T13:39:01 Make sure to always include "common.h" first Next to including several files, our "common.h" header also declares various macros which are then used throughout the project. As such, we have to make sure to always include this file first in all implementation files. Otherwise, we might encounter problems or even silent behavioural differences due to macros or defines not being defined as they should be. So in fact, our header and implementation files should make sure to always include "common.h" first. This commit does so by establishing a common include pattern. Header files inside of "src" will now always include "common.h" as its first other file, separated by a newline from all the other includes to make it stand out as special. There are two cases for the implementation files. If they do have a matching header file, they will always include this one first, leading to "common.h" being transitively included as first file. If they do not have a matching header file, they instead include "common.h" as first file themselves. This fixes the outlined problems and will become our standard practice for header and source files inside of the "src/" from now on.

J Wyman 1920ee4e 2015-03-26T18:10:24 Improvements to status performance on Windows. Changed win32/path_w32.c to utilize NTFS' FindFirst..FindNext data instead of doing an lstat per file. Avoiding unnecessary directory opens and file scans reduces IO, improving overall performance. Effect is magnified due to NTFS being a kernel mode file system (as opposed to user mode).
Carlos Martín Nieto 629417bd 2014-12-19T08:08:47 Fix ming32 compilation We need to know what wchar_t and MAX_PATH are. Including common.h takes care of that for us.
Edward Thomson a64119e3 2014-11-25T18:13:00 checkout: disallow bad paths on win32 Disallow: 1. paths with trailing dot 2. paths with trailing space 3. paths with trailing colon 4. paths that are 8.3 short names of .git folders ("GIT~1") 5. paths that are reserved path names (COM1, LPT1, etc). 6. paths with reserved DOS characters (colons, asterisks, etc) These paths would (without \\?\ syntax) be elided to other paths - for example, ".git." would be written as ".git". As a result, writing these paths literally (using \\?\ syntax) makes them hard to operate with from the shell, Windows Explorer or other tools. Disallow these.
Edward Thomson cceae9a2 2014-12-01T13:09:58 win32: use NT-prefixed "\\?\" paths When turning UTF-8 paths into UCS-2 paths for Windows, always use the \\?\-prefixed paths. Because this bypasses the system's path canonicalization, handle the canonicalization functions ourselves. We must: 1. always use a backslash as a directory separator 2. only use a single backslash between directories 3. not rely on the system to translate "." and ".." in paths 4. remove trailing backslashes, except at the drive root (C:\)
