Our code often opens a path to an optional file, to work on its
contents when we can successfully open it. We can ignore a failure
to open if such an optional file does not exist, but we do want to
report a failure in opening for other reasons (e.g. we got an I/O
error, or the file is there, but we lack the permission to open).
The exact errors we need to ignore are ENOENT (obviously) and
ENOTDIR (less obvious). Instead of repeating comparison of errno
with these two constants, introduce a helper function to do so.

In many places, Git warns about an inaccessible file after a fopen()

about inaccessible files, introduce a new helper specifically to test
whether fopen() failed because the current user lacks the permission to

If git is built with the FREAD_READS_DIRECTORIES build variable set, this
would cause sparse to issue a 'not declared, should it be static?' warning
on Linux. This is a result of the method employed by 'compat/fopen.c' to
suppress the (possible) redefinition of the (system) fopen macro, which
also removes the extern declaration of the git_fopen function.
In order to suppress the warning, introduce a new macro to suppress the
definition (or possibly the re-definition) of the fopen symbol as a macro
override. This new macro (SUPPRESS_FOPEN_REDEFINITION) is only defined in
'compat/fopen.c', just prior to the inclusion of the 'git-compat-util.h'
header file.

Some platforms have ulong that is smaller than time_t, and our
historical use of ulong for timestamp would mean they cannot
represent some timestamp that the platform allows. Invent a

The set_error_handle() function was introduced by 3b331e926
(vreportf: report to arbitrary filehandles, 2015-08-11) so
that run-command could send post-fork, pre-exec errors to
the parent's original stderr.
That use went away in 79319b194 (run-command: eliminate
calls to error handling functions in child, 2017-04-19),
which pushes all of the error reporting to the parent.
This leaves no callers of set_error_handle(). As we're not
likely to add any new ones, let's drop it.

There's a convention in Git's code base to write assertions
as:
if (...some_bad_thing...)
die("BUG: the terrible thing happened");
with the idea that users should never see a "BUG:" message
(but if they, it at least gives a clue what happened). We
use die() here because it's convenient, but there are a few
draw-backs:
1. Without parsing the messages, it's hard for callers to
distinguish BUG assertions from regular errors.
For instance, it would be nice if the test suite could
check that we don't hit any assertions, but
test_must_fail will pass BUG deaths as OK.
2. It would be useful to add more debugging features to
BUG assertions, like file/line numbers or dumping core.
3. The die() handler can be replaced, and might not
actually exit the whole program (e.g., it may just
pthread_exit()). This is convenient for normal errors,
but for an assertion failure (which is supposed to
never happen), we're probably better off taking down
the whole process as quickly and cleanly as possible.
We could address these by checking in die() whether the
error message starts with "BUG", and behaving appropriately.
But there's little advantage at that point to sharing the
die() code, and only downsides (e.g., we can't change the
BUG() interface independently). Moreover, converting all of
the existing BUG calls reveals that the test suite does
indeed trigger a few of them.
Instead, this patch introduces a new BUG() function, which
prints an error before dying via SIGABRT. This gives us test
suite checking and core dumps. The function is actually a
macro (when supported) so that we can show the file/line
number.
We can convert die("BUG") invocations to BUG() in further
patches, dealing with any test fallouts individually.

Previously, we used `unsigned long` for timestamps. This was only a good
choice on Linux, where we know implicitly that `unsigned long` is what is
used for `time_t`.
However, we want to use a different data type for timestamps for two
reasons:
- there is nothing that says that `unsigned long` should be the same data
type as `time_t`, and indeed, on 64-bit Windows for example, it is not:
`unsigned long` is 32-bit but `time_t` is 64-bit.
- even on 32-bit Linux, where `unsigned long` (and thereby `time_t`) is
32-bit, we *want* to be able to encode timestamps in Git that are
currently absurdly far in the future, *even if* the system library is
not able to format those timestamps into date strings.
So let's just switch to the maximal integer type available, which should
be at least 64-bit for all practical purposes these days. It certainly
cannot be worse than `unsigned long`, so...

Git's source code assumes that unsigned long is at least as precise as
time_t. Which is incorrect, and causes a lot of problems, in particular
where unsigned long is only 32-bit (notably on Windows, even in 64-bit
versions).
So let's just use a more appropriate data type instead. In preparation
for this, we introduce the new `timestamp_t` data type.
By necessity, this is a very, very large patch, as it has to replace all
timestamps' data type in one go.
As we will use a data type that is not necessarily identical to `time_t`,
we need to be very careful to use `time_t` whenever we interact with the
system functions, and `timestamp_t` everywhere else.

Currently, Git's source code treats all timestamps as if they were
unsigned longs. Therefore, it is okay to write "%lu" when printing them.
There is a substantial problem with that, though: at least on Windows,
time_t is *larger* than unsigned long, and hence we will want to switch
away from the ill-specified `unsigned long` data type.
So let's introduce the pseudo format "PRItime" (currently simply being
defined to "lu") to make it easier to change the data type used for
timestamps.

When core.packedGitLimit is exceeded, git will close packs. If there
is a repack operation going on in parallel with a fetch, the fetch
might open a pack, and then be forced to close it due to
packedGitLimit being hit. The repack could then delete the pack
out from under the fetch, causing the fetch to fail.
Increase core.packedGitLimit's default value to prevent
this.
On current 64-bit x86_64 machines, 48 bits of address space are
available. It appears that 64-bit ARM machines have no standard
amount of address space (that is, it varies by manufacturer), and IA64
and POWER machines have the full 64 bits. So 48 bits is the only
limit that we can reasonably care about. We reserve a few bits of the
48-bit address space for the kernel's use (this is not strictly
necessary, but it's better to be safe), and use up to the remaining
45. No git repository will be anywhere near this large any time soon,
so this should prevent the failure.

Add an implementation based on compat/qsort.c for platforms that lack a
native standards-compliant qsort_s() (i.e. basically everyone). It
doesn't perform the full range of possible checks: It uses size_t
instead of rsize_t and doesn't check nmemb and size against RSIZE_MAX
because we probably don't have the restricted size type defined. For
the same reason it returns int instead of errno_t.

Calculating offsets involving a NULL pointer is undefined. It works in
practice (for now?), but we should not rely on it. Allocate first and
then simply refer to the flexible array member by its name instead of
performing pointer arithmetic up front. The resulting code is slightly
shorter, easier to read and doesn't rely on undefined behaviour.
NB: The cast to a (non-const) void pointer is necessary to keep support

Add COPY_ARRAY, a safe and convenient helper for copying arrays,
complementing ALLOC_ARRAY and REALLOC_ARRAY. Users just specify source,
destination and the number of elements; the size of an element is
inferred automatically.
It checks if the multiplication of size and element count overflows.
The inferred size is passed first to st_mult, which allows the division
there to be done at compilation time.
As a basic type safety check it makes sure the sizes of source and
destination elements are the same. That's evaluated at compilation time
as well.
COPY_ARRAY is safe to use with NULL as source pointer iff 0 elements are
to be copied. That convention is used in some cases for initializing
arrays. Raw memcpy(3) does not support it -- compilers are allowed to
assume that only valid pointers are passed to it and can optimize away
NULL checks after such a call.

We just introduced a test that demonstrates that our sloppy use of
regexec() on a mmap()ed area can result in incorrect results or even
hard crashes.
So what we need to fix this is a function that calls regexec() on a
length-delimited, rather than a NUL-terminated, string.
Happily, there is an extension to regexec() introduced by the NetBSD
project and present in all major regex implementation including
Linux', MacOSX' and the one Git includes in compat/regex/: by using
the (non-POSIX) REG_STARTEND flag, it is possible to tell the
regexec() function that it should only look at the offsets between
pmatch[0].rm_so and pmatch[0].rm_eo.
That is exactly what we need.
Since support for REG_STARTEND is so widespread by now, let's just
introduce a helper function that always uses it, and tell people
on a platform whose regex library does not support it to use the
one from our compat/regex/ directory.
