Add process ancestry data to trace2 on macOS to match what we
already do on Linux and Windows. Also adjust the way Windows
implementation reports this information to match the other two.
* mc/tr2-process-ancestry-cleanup:
t0213: add trace2 cmd_ancestry tests
test-tool: extend trace2 helper with 400ancestry
trace2: emit cmd_ancestry data for Windows
trace2: refactor Windows process ancestry trace2 event
build: include procinfo.c impl for macOS
trace2: add macOS process ancestry tracing

Allow recording process ID of the process that holds the lock next
to a lockfile for diagnosis.
* pc/lockfile-pid:

Since 2f732bf15e (tr2: log parent process name, 2021-07-21) it is now
now possible to emit a specific process ancestry event in TRACE2. We
should emit the Windows process ancestry data with the correct event
type.
To not break existing consumers of the data_json "windows/ancestry"
event, we continue to emit the ancestry data as a JSON event.

In 353d3d77f4 (trace2: collect Windows-specific process information,
2019-02-22) we added process ancestry information for Windows to TRACE2
via a data_json event. It was only later in 2f732bf15e (tr2: log parent
process name, 2021-07-21) that the specific cmd_ancestry event was
added to TRACE2.
In a future commit we will emit the ancestry information with the newer
cmd_ancestry TRACE2 event. Right now, we rework this implementation of
trace2_collect_process_info to separate the calculation of ancestors
from building and emiting the JSON array via a data_json event.

In 353d3d77f4 (trace2: collect Windows-specific process information,
2019-02-22) Windows-specific process ancestry information was added as
a data_json event to TRACE2. Furthermore in 2f732bf15e (tr2: log
parent process name, 2021-07-21) similar functionality was added for
Linux-based systems, using procfs.
Teach Git to also log process ancestry on macOS using the sysctl with
KERN_PROC to get process information (PPID and process name).
Like the Linux implementation, we use the cmd_ancestry TRACE2 event
rather than using a data_json event and creating another custom data
point.

When a lock file is held, it can be helpful to know which process owns
it, especially when debugging stale locks left behind by crashed
processes. Add an optional feature that creates a companion PID file
alongside each lock file, containing the PID of the lock holder.
For a lock file "foo.lock", the PID file is named "foo~pid.lock". The
tilde character is forbidden in refnames and allowed in Windows
filenames, which guarantees no collision with the refs namespace
(e.g., refs "foo" and "foo~pid" cannot both exist). The file contains
a single line in the format "pid <value>" followed by a newline.
The PID file is created when a lock is acquired (if enabled), and
automatically cleaned up when the lock is released (via commit or
rollback). The file is registered as a tempfile so it gets cleaned up
by signal and atexit handlers if the process terminates abnormally.
When a lock conflict occurs, the code checks for an existing PID file
and, if found, uses kill(pid, 0) to determine if the process is still
running. This allows providing context-aware error messages:
Lock is held by process 12345. Wait for it to finish, or remove
the lock file to continue.
Or for a stale lock:
Lock was held by process 12345, which is no longer running.
Remove the stale lock file to continue.
The feature is controlled via core.lockfilePid configuration (boolean).
Defaults to false. When enabled, PID files are created for all lock
operations.
Existing PID files are always read when displaying lock errors,
regardless of the core.lockfilePid setting. This ensures helpful
diagnostics even when the feature was previously enabled and later
disabled.

When creating directories via `safe_create_leading_directories()`, we
might encounter an already-existing directory which is not
readable by the current user. To handle that situation, Git's code calls
`stat()` to determine whether we're looking at a directory.
In such a case, `CreateFile()` will fail, though, no matter what, and
consequently `mingw_stat()` will fail, too. But POSIX semantics seem to
still allow `stat()` to go forward.
So let's call `mingw_lstat()` to the rescue if we fail to get a file
handle due to denied permission in `mingw_stat()`, and fill the stat
info that way.
We need to be careful to not allow this to go forward in case that we're
looking at a symbolic link: to resolve the link, we would still have to
create a file handle, and we just found out that we cannot. Therefore,
`stat()` still needs to fail with `EACCES` in that case.
This fixes https://github.com/git-for-windows/git/issues/2531.

As of Windows 10 Build 14972 in Developer Mode, a new flag is supported
by `CreateSymbolicLink()` to create symbolic links even when running
outside of an elevated session (which was previously required).
This new flag is called `SYMBOLIC_LINK_FLAG_ALLOW_UNPRIVILEGED_CREATE`
and has the numeric value 0x02.
Previous Windows 10 versions will not understand that flag and return
an `ERROR_INVALID_PARAMETER`, therefore we have to be careful to try
passing that flag only when the build number indicates that it is
supported.
For more information about the new flag, see this blog post:

Symlinks on Windows have a flag that indicates whether the target is a
file or a directory. Symlinks of wrong type simply don't work. This even
affects core Win32 APIs (e.g. `DeleteFile()` refuses to delete directory
symlinks).
However, `CreateFile()` with FILE_FLAG_BACKUP_SEMANTICS does work. Check
the target type by first creating a tentative file symlink, opening it,
and checking the type of the resulting handle. If it is a directory,
recreate the symlink with the directory flag set.
It is possible to create symlinks before the target exists (or in case
of symlinks to symlinks: before the target type is known). If this
happens, create a tentative file symlink and postpone the directory
decision: keep a list of phantom symlinks to be processed whenever a new
directory is created in `mingw_mkdir()`.
Limitations: This algorithm may fail if a link target changes from file
to directory or vice versa, or if the target directory is created in
another process. It's the best Git can do, though.

symlinks (remember: Windows discerns between symlinks pointing to
directories and those pointing to files). Support for directory symlinks
will be added in a subseqeuent commit.

If symlinks are enabled, resolve all symlinks when changing directories,
as required by POSIX.
Note: Git's `real_path()` function bases its link resolution algorithm
on this property of `chdir()`. Unfortunately, the current directory on
Windows is limited to only MAX_PATH (260) characters. Therefore using
symlinks and long paths in combination may be problematic.

Older MSVCRT's `_wrename()` function cannot rename symlinks over
existing files: it returns success without doing anything. Newer
MSVCR*.dll versions probably do not share this problem: according to CRT
sources, they just call `MoveFileEx()` with the `MOVEFILE_COPY_ALLOWED`
flag.
Avoid the `_wrename()` call, and go with directly calling
`MoveFileEx()`, with proper error handling of course.

to directories on Windows; The error code would be `ERROR_ACCESS_DENIED`

The Win32 API calls do not set `errno`; Instead, error codes for failed
operations must be obtained via the `GetLastError()` function. Git would
not know what to do with those error values, though, which is why Git's
Windows compatibility layer translates them to `errno` values.
Let's handle a couple of symlink-related error codes that will become
relevant with the upcoming support for symlinks on Windows.

Symlinks on Windows don't work the same way as on Unix systems. For
example, there are different types of symlinks for directories and
files, and unless using a recent-ish Windows version in Developer Mode,
creating symlinks requires administrative privileges.
By default, disable symlink support on Windows. That is, users
explicitly have to enable it with `git config [--system|--global]
core.symlinks true`; For convenience, `git init` (and `git clone`)
will perform a test whether the current setup allows creating symlinks
and will configure that setting in the repository config.
The test suite ignores system / global config files. Allow
testing *with* symlink support by checking if native symlinks are
enabled in MSYS2 (via setting the special environment variable
`MSYS=winsymlinks:nativestrict` to ask the MSYS2 runtime to enable
creating symlinks).
Note: This assumes that Git's test suite is run in MSYS2's Bash, which
is true for the time being (an experiment to switch to BusyBox-w32
failed due to the experimental nature of BusyBox-w32).

In several places, Git's Windows-specific code follows the pattern where
it tries to perform an operation, and retries several times when that
operation fails, sleeping an increasing amount of time, before finally
giving up and asking the user whether to rety (after, say, closing an
editor that held a handle to a file, preventing the operation from
succeeding).
This logic is a bit hard to use, and inconsistent:
`mingw_unlink()` and `mingw_rmdir()` duplicate the code to retry,
and both of them do so incompletely. They also do not restore `errno` if the
user answers 'no'.
Introduce a `retry_ask_yes_no()` helper function that handles retry with
small delay, asking the user, and restoring `errno`.
Note that in `mingw_unlink()`, we include the `_wchmod()` call in the
retry loop (which may fail if the file is locked exclusively).
In `mingw_rmdir()`, we include special error handling in the retry loop.

POSIX specifies that upon successful return from `lstat()`: "the
value of the st_size member shall be set to the length of the pathname
contained in the symbolic link not including any terminating null byte".
Git typically doesn't trust the `stat.st_size` member of symlinks (e.g.
see `strbuf_readlink()`). Therefore, it is tempting to save on the extra
overhead of opening and reading the reparse point merely to calculate
the exact size of the link target.
This is, in fact, what Git for Windows did, from May 2015 to May 2020.
At least almost: some functions take shortcuts if `st_size` is 0 (e.g.
`diff_populate_filespec()`), hence Git for Windows hard-coded the length
of all symlinks to MAX_PATH.
This did cause problems, though, specifically in Git repositories
that were also accessed by Git for Cygwin or Git for WSL. For example,
doing `git reset --hard` using Git for Windows would update the size of
symlinks in the index to be MAX_PATH; at a later time Git for Cygwin
or Git for WSL would find that symlinks have changed size during `git
status` and update the index. And then Git for Windows would think that
the index needs to be updated. Even if the symlinks did not, in fact,
change. To avoid that, the correct size must be determined.

When obtaining lstat information for reparse points, we need to call
`FindFirstFile()` in addition to `GetFileInformationEx()` to obtain
the type of the reparse point (symlink, mount point etc.). However,
currently there is no error handling whatsoever if `FindFirstFile()`
fails.
Call `FindFirstFile()` before modifying the `stat *buf` output parameter
and error out if the call fails.
Note: The `FindFirstFile()` return value includes all the data
that we get from `GetFileAttributesEx()`, so we could replace
`GetFileAttributesEx()` with `FindFirstFile()`. We don't do that because
`GetFileAttributesEx()` is about twice as fast for single files. I.e.
we only pay the extra cost of calling `FindFirstFile()` in the rare case
that we encounter a reparse point.
Please also note that the indentation the remaining reparse point
code changed, and hence the best way to look at this diff is with
`--color-moved -w`. That code was _not_ moved because a subsequent
commit will move it to an altogether different function, anyway.

With respect to symlinks, the current `mingw_stat()` implementation is
almost identical to `mingw_lstat()`: except for the file type (`st_mode
& S_IFMT`), it returns information about the link rather than the target.
Implement `mingw_stat()` by opening the file handle requesting minimal
permissions, and then calling `GetFileInformationByHandle()` on it. This
way, all links are resolved by the Windows file system layer.

The Win32 API function `GetFileAttributes()` cannot handle paths with
trailing dir separators. The current `mingw_stat()`/`mingw_lstat()`
implementation calls `GetFileAttributes()` twice if the path has
trailing slashes (first with the original path that was passed as
function parameter, and and a second time with a path copy with trailing
'/' removed).
With the conversion to wide Unicode, we get the length of the path for
free, and also have a (wide char) buffer that can be modified. This
makes it easy to avoid that extraneous Win32 API call.

As pointed out in https://github.com/git-for-windows/git/issues/1676,
the `git rev-parse --is-inside-work-tree` command currently fails when
the current directory's path contains symbolic links.
The underlying reason for this bug is that `getcwd()` is supposed to
resolve symbolic links, but our `mingw_getcwd()` implementation did not.
We do have all the building blocks for that, though: the
`GetFinalPathByHandleW()` function will resolve symbolic links. However,
we only called that function if `GetLongPathNameW()` failed, for
historical reasons: the latter function was supported for a long time,
but the former API function was introduced only with Windows Vista, and
we used to support also Windows XP. With that support having been
dropped, we are free to call the symbolic link-resolving function right
away.

The `_wopen()` function would gladly follow a symbolic link to a

It was reported to the Git for Windows project that a simple `git init`
fails on Windows Server 2016:
D:\Dev\test> git init
error: could not write config file D:/Dev/test/.git/config: Function not implemented
fatal: could not set 'core.repositoryformatversion' to '0'
According to https://endoflife.date/windows-server, Windows Server 2016
is officially supported for another one-and-a-half years as of time of
writing, so this is not good.
The culprit is the `mingw_rename()` changes that try to use POSIX
semantics when available, but fail to fall back properly on Windows
Server 2016.
This fixes https://github.com/git-for-windows/git/issues/5695.

ReFS is an alternative filesystem to NTFS. On Windows 2022, it seems not
to support the rename operation using POSIX semantics that Git uses on
Windows as of 391bceae4350 (compat/mingw: support POSIX semantics for
atomic renames, 2024-10-27).
However, Windows 2022 reports `ERROR_NOT_SUPPORTED` in this instance.
This is in contrast to `ERROR_INVALID_PARAMETER` (as previous Windows
versions would report that do not support POSIX semantics in renames at
all).
Let's handle both errors the same: by falling back to the best-effort
option, namely to rename without POSIX semantics.
This fixes https://github.com/git-for-windows/git/issues/5427

In ac33519ddfa8 (mingw: restrict file handle inheritance only on Windows
7 and later, 2019-11-22), I introduced code to safe-guard the
defense-in-depth handling that restricts handles' inheritance so that it
would work with Windows 7, too.
Let's revert this patch: Git for Windows dropped supporting Windows 7 (and
Windows 8) directly after Git for Windows v2.46.2. For full details, see
https://gitforwindows.org/requirements#windows-version.
Actually, on second thought: revert only the part that makes this handle
inheritance restriction logic optional and that suggests to open a bug
report if it fails, but keep the fall-back to try again without said
logic: There have been a few false positives over the past few years
(where the warning was triggered e.g. because Defender was still
accessing a file that Git wanted to overwrite), and the fall-back logic
seems to have helped occasionally in such situations.
