(Add a notice that only certain functions can print color escape codes,

As of eac14f8 (Win32: Thread-safe windows console output, 2012-01-14),
however, this is no longer the case, as the ANSI color sequence support
code needed to be replaced with a thread-safe version, one side effect
being that stdout and stderr handled no matter which function is used to
write to it.

The list of attributes we recognize is a bit unwieldy, as we
actually have two arrays that must be kept in sync. Instead,
let's have a single array-of-struct to represent our
mapping. That means we can never have an accident that
causes us to read off the end of an array, and it makes
diffs for adding new attributes much easier to read.

This also makes it easy to handle the "no" cases without
having to repeat each attribute (this shortens the list,
making it easier to read, but also also cuts the size of our
linear search in half). Technically this makes it impossible
for us to add an attribute that starts with "no" (we could
confuse "nobody" for the negation of "body"), but since this
is a constrained set of attributes, that's OK.

Since we can also store the length of each name in the
struct, that makes it easy for us to avoid reading past the
"len" parameter given to us (though in practice it was not a
bug, since all of our current callers are interested in a

8 years agot2300: "git --exec-path" is not usable in $PATH on Windows as-is
Johannes Schindelin [Sat, 18 Jun 2016 10:49:11 +0000 (12:49 +0200)] 
t2300: "git --exec-path" is not usable in $PATH on Windows as-is

The "git" command prepends the exec-path to the PATH environment
variable for processes it spawns.  That is how ". git-sh-setup" in
our scripted Porcelains can find the dot-sourced file in the
exec-path location that is not usually on user's PATH.

When t2300 runs, because it is not spawned by the "git" command, the
scriptlet being tested did not run with a realistic setting of PATH
environment.  It lacked the exec-path on the PATH, and failed to
find the dot-sourced file.  A recent update to t2300 attempted to
fix this, with "PATH=$(git --exec-path):$PATH", which has been the
recommended way around v1.6.0 days (a script whose original was
written before that release that survives to this day is likely to
have such a line).

However, the "git --exec-path" command outputs C:\path\to\exec\dir
(not /c/path/to/exec/dir) on Windows; the recent update failed to
consider the problem that comes from it.

Even though Git itself, when doing the equivalent internally, does
so in a platform native way (i.e. on Windows, C:\path\to\exec\dir is
prepended to the existing value of %PATH% using ';' as a component
separator), the result is further massaged by bash and gets turned
into $PATH that uses /c/path/to/exec/dir with ':' separating the
components, which is the form understood by bash, so scripted
Porcelains find commands from PATH correctly.

An end user script written in shell, however, cannot prepend
"C:\path\to\exec\dir:" to the existing value of $PATH and expect
bash to magically turn it into the form it understands.  In other
words, "PATH=$(git --exec-path):$PATH" does not work as an emulation
of what "Git" internally does to the PATH on Windows.

To correctly emulate how exec-path is prepended to the PATH
environment internally on Windows, we'd need to convert
C:\git-sdk-64\usr\src\git to at least /c\git-sdk-64\usr\src\git
ourselves before prepending it to PATH.
