Edward Thomson 544139f5 2015-04-28T16:39:47 win32: keep full path for realpath usage
Edward Thomson c074d7a4 2015-04-28T12:24:08 win32: mimic git_path_dirload_with_stat closely
Edward Thomson b3f6cef0 2015-04-28T11:16:42 dirload: loop conditional; less path mangling
Edward Thomson e05531dd 2015-04-27T18:02:06 win32 dirload: don't heap allocate DIR structure

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).
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:\)
