By default, the buffer type of Windows' `stdout` is unbuffered (_IONBF),
and there is no need to manually fflush `stdout`.

But some programs, such as the Windows Filtering Platform driver
provided by the security software, may change the buffer type of
`stdout` to full buffering. This nees `fflush(stdout)` to be called
manually, otherwise there will be no output to `stdout`.

Start work on a new 'git survey' command to scan the repository
for monorepo performance and scaling problems.  The goal is to
measure the various known "dimensions of scale" and serve as a
foundation for adding additional measurements as we learn more
about Git monorepo scaling problems.

The initial goal is to complement the scanning and analysis performed
by the GO-based 'git-sizer' (https://github.com/github/git-sizer) tool.
It is hoped that by creating a builtin command, we may be able to take
advantage of internal Git data structures and code that is not
accessible from GO to gain further insight into potential scaling
problems.

When 'git survey' provides information to the user, this will be presented
in one of two formats: plaintext and JSON. The JSON implementation will be
delayed until the functionality is complete for the plaintext format.

The most important parts of the plaintext format are headers specifying the
different sections of the report and tables providing concreted data.

Create a custom table data structure that allows specifying a list of
strings for the row values. When printing the table, check each column for
the maximum width so we can create a table of the correct size from the
start.

The table structure is designed to be flexible to the different kinds of
output that will be implemented in future changes.

Continue the size_t evacuation around large object handling: with
deflate_it() and the locals around it widened, the
cast_size_t_to_ulong() shim the prior delta_delta() widening had to
leave behind in emit_binary_diff_body() goes away. deflate_it() is
file-static; the only callers are the two in emit_binary_diff_body()
already touched here.

emit_diff_symbol() formats the resulting sizes via uintmax_t / %"PRIuMAX",
so the diff output is not affected; only the per-process upper bound
on a binary patch chunk that this function can address grows beyond
4 GiB on Windows.

At the moment, nothing is obvious about the reason for the use of the
path-walk API, but this will become more prevelant in future iterations. For
now, use the path-walk API to sum up the counts of each kind of object.

For example, this is the reachable object summary output for my local repo:

REACHABLE OBJECT SUMMARY

Now that we have explored objects by count, we can expand that a bit more to
summarize the data for the on-disk and inflated size of those objects. This
information is helpful for diagnosing both why disk space (and perhaps
clone or fetch times) is growing but also why certain operations are slow
because the inflated size of the abstract objects that must be processed is
so large.

Note: zlib-ng is slightly more efficient even at those small sizes. Even
between zlib versions, there are slight differences in compression. To
accommodate for that in the tests, not the exact numbers but some rough
approximations are validated (the test should validate `git survey`,
after all, not zlib).

Continue the size_t evacuation. read_blob_data_from_index() reads
the blob through the size_t odb_read_object() API but writes the
size back through an unsigned long out-parameter, silently
truncating anything past 4 GiB on Windows. Widen the out-parameter,
drop the cast_size_t_to_ulong() shim, and move the matching locals
in the two convert.c callers and the one in attr.c. Their
downstream consumers (gather_convert_stats() widened in the prior
commit and read_attr_from_buf() already size_t) take the new type
directly.

The winsock2 library provides functions that work on different data
types than file descriptors, therefore we wrap them.

But that is not the only difference: they also do not set `errno` but
expect the callers to enquire about errors via `WSAGetLastError()`.

Let's translate that into appropriate `errno` values whenever the socket
operations fail so that Git's code base does not have to change its
expectations.

most of them. Produce some more meaningful error messages in these

Our builds for ARM64 link against the newer UCRT strerror() that does know

Although NTLM authentication is considered weak (extending even to
NTLMv2, which purportedly allows brute-forcing reasonably complex
8-character passwords in a matter of days, given ample compute
resources), it _is_ one of the authentication methods supported by
libcurl.

Note: The added test case *cannot* reuse the existing `custom_auth`
facility. The reason is that that facility is backed by an NPH script
("No Parse Headers"), which does not allow handling the 3-phase NTLM
authentication correctly (in my hands, the NPH script would not even be
called upon the Type 3 message, a "200 OK" would be returned, but no
headers, let alone the `git http-backend` output as payload). Having a
separate NTLM authentication script makes the exact workings clearer and
more readable, anyway.

with the size_t shape the rest of the tree topic is moving toward.

struct tree_desc.size stays unsigned int -- the on-disk tree format
hard-caps each tree at 4 GiB, so the field is intentionally narrow
and the assignment in init_tree_desc_internal() already truncated
unsigned long inputs the same way it now truncates size_t inputs.
The widening is purely about the call-side type-correctness; the
internal cap is unchanged.

Since we are already walking our reachable objects using the path-walk API,
let's now collect lists of the paths that contribute most to different
metrics. Specifically, we care about

 * Number of versions.
 * Total size on disk.
 * Total inflated size (no delta or zlib compression).

This information can be critical to discovering which parts of the
repository are causing the most growth, especially on-disk size. Different
packing strategies might help compress data more efficiently, but the toal
inflated size is a representation of the raw size of all snapshots of those
paths. Even when stored efficiently on disk, that size represents how much
information must be processed to complete a command such as 'git blame'.

The exact disk size seems to be not quite robust enough for testing, as
could be seen by the `linux-musl-meson` job consistently failing, possibly
because of zlib-ng deflates differently: t8100.4(git survey
(default)) was failing with a symptom like this:

   TOTAL OBJECT SIZES BY TYPE
   ===============================================
   Object Type | Count | Disk Size | Inflated Size
   ------------+-------+-----------+--------------
  -    Commits |    10 |      1523 |          2153
  +    Commits |    10 |      1528 |          2153
         Trees |    10 |       495 |          1706
         Blobs |    10 |       191 |           101
  -       Tags |     4 |       510 |           528
  +       Tags |     4 |       547 |           528

This means: the disk size is unlikely something we can verify robustly.
Since zlib-ng seems to increase the disk size of the tags from 528 to
547, we cannot even assume that the disk size is always smaller than the
inflated size. We will most likely want to either skip verifying the
disk size altogether, or go for some kind of fuzzy matching, say, by
replacing `s/ 1[45][0-9][0-9] / ~1.5k /` and `s/ [45][0-9][0-9] / ~½k /`
or something like that.

NTLM authentication is relatively weak. This is the case even with the
default setting of modern Windows versions, where NTLMv1 and LanManager
are disabled and only NTLMv2 is enabled: NTLMv2 hashes of even
reasonably complex 8-character passwords can be broken in a matter of
days, given enough compute resources.

Even worse: On Windows, NTLM authentication uses Security Support
Provider Interface ("SSPI"), which provides the credentials without
requiring the user to type them in.

Which means that an attacker could talk an unsuspecting user into
cloning from a server that is under the attacker's control and extracts
the user's NTLMv2 hash without their knowledge.

For that reason, let's disallow NTLM authentication by default.

NTLM authentication is quite simple to set up, though, and therefore
there are still some on-prem Azure DevOps setups out there whose users
and/or automation rely on this type of authentication. To give them an
escape hatch, introduce the `http.<url>.allowNTLMAuth` config setting
that can be set to `true` to opt back into using NTLM for a specific
remote repository.

The `git_terminal_prompt()` function expects the terminal window to be
attached to a Win32 Console. However, this is not the case with terminal
windows other than `cmd.exe`'s, e.g. with MSys2's own `mintty`.

Non-cmd terminals such as `mintty` still have to have a Win32 Console
to be proper console programs, but have to hide the Win32 Console to
be able to provide more flexibility (such as being resizeable not only
vertically but also horizontally). By writing to that Win32 Console,
`git_terminal_prompt()` manages only to send the prompt to nowhere and
to wait for input from a Console to which the user has no access.

This commit introduces a function specifically to support `mintty` -- or
other terminals that are compatible with MSys2's `/dev/tty` emulation. We
use the `TERM` environment variable as an indicator for that: if the value
starts with "xterm" (such as `mintty`'s "xterm_256color"), we prefer to
let `xterm_prompt()` handle the user interaction.

The most prominent user of `git_terminal_prompt()` is certainly
`git-remote-https.exe`. It is an interesting use case because both
`stdin` and `stdout` are redirected when Git calls said executable, yet
it still wants to access the terminal.

When running inside a `mintty`, the terminal is not accessible to the
`git-remote-https.exe` program, though, because it is a MinGW program
and the `mintty` terminal is not backed by a Win32 console.

To solve that problem, we simply call out to the shell -- which is an
*MSys2* program and can therefore access `/dev/tty`.

On Windows, symbolic links actually have a type depending on the target:
it can be a file or a directory.

In certain circumstances, this poses problems, e.g. when a symbolic link
is supposed to point into a submodule that is not checked out, so there
is no way for Git to auto-detect the type.

To help with that, we will add support over the course of the next
commits to specify that symlink type via the Git attributes. This
requires an index_state, though, something that Git for Windows'
`symlink()` replacement cannot know about because the function signature
is defined by the POSIX standard and not ours to change.

So let's introduce a helper function to create symbolic links that
*does* know about the index_state.

Continue the size_t evacuation. textconv_object() fills its
out-parameter from fill_textconv()'s size_t return through an

new shape where callers can.

cat-file's 'c' and batch-mode 'c' branches lose their size_ul
bridge variables (one site becomes a direct call, the other
collapses an if/else into a single negated condition that reads as
"try textconv, fall back to a raw read").

blame.c likewise drops the file_size_st bridge in fill_origin_blob()
and hoists final_buf_size_st to bracket both branches in
setup_scoreboard(). The latter keeps a cast_size_t_to_ulong() shim
because struct blame_scoreboard.final_buf_size is still unsigned
long; that field is its own topic.

Upstream, the 'core.useBuiltinFSMonitor' setting was rendered obsolete by
"overloading" the 'core.fsmonitor' setting to take a boolean value. However,
several applications (e.g., 'scalar') utilize the original config setting,
so it should be preserved for a deprecation period before complete removal:

* if 'core.fsmonitor' is a boolean, the user is correctly using the new
  config syntax; do not use 'core.useBuiltinFSMonitor'.
* if 'core.fsmonitor' is unspecified, use 'core.useBuiltinFSMonitor'.
* if 'core.fsmonitor' is a path, override and use the builtin FSMonitor if
  'core.useBuiltinFSMonitor' is 'true'; otherwise, use the FSMonitor hook
  indicated by the path.

Additionally, for this deprecation period, advise users to switch to using
'core.fsmonitor' to specify their use of the builtin FSMonitor.

Mirror what git survey already reports: lightweight tags
(pointing straight at a commit/tree/blob) and annotated tags
(pointing at an OBJ_TAG that is itself stored as a separate
object) are different things in many monorepo contexts, and one
of the differences git survey users routinely care about. Add
an annotated_tags counter to struct ref_stats, populate it in
count_references() by peeking at the ref OID's object type, and
expose it as a sub-row under Tags in the table output and as
references.tags.annotated.count in the machine-readable formats.

Step toward pivoting the standalone git survey command onto
git repo structure; this fills the first of the four feature
gaps documented in the assessment.

`git repo structure` walks every reference enumerated by
`refs_for_each_ref()` and feeds each reference's tip into the path
walk that produces the object counts. There is no way to scope the
inquiry to a subset of refs, even though that is the most common
need when an operator is investigating what part of the history is
driving cost: only branches, only release tags, only one remote's
view, etc.

Add a single `--ref-filter=<pattern>` option that, when given,
restricts both the reference count and the object walk to refs whose
full name matches one of the patterns. The option is repeatable;
multiple patterns form a union, so `--ref-filter='refs/heads/*'
--ref-filter='refs/tags/v*'` includes local branches and tags whose
short name starts with `v`. Patterns use `wildmatch()` with
`WM_PATHNAME` semantics so a `*` does not cross `/`, matching the
convention used by `git for-each-ref` positional arguments.

Choosing a single flexible filter, rather than a proliferation of
per-kind flags like `--branches`, `--tags`, `--remotes`, keeps the
option surface small and lets the same mechanism express
narrow selections the per-kind flags could not, such as "only release
tags" (`'refs/tags/v*'`) or "only one remote's branches"
(`'refs/remotes/origin/*'`). Without `--ref-filter`, behaviour is
unchanged: every ref `refs_for_each_ref()` enumerates contributes.

Both the reference counter and the path-walk seeding (via
`add_pending_oid()`) sit on the same callback, so an early return
when no pattern matches naturally excludes a ref from both. No
separate object-walk machinery is needed.

Cover the two interesting code paths with tests in t1901: a single
filter narrowing to branches, and two filters unioning to include
both branches and tags.

`git survey` distinguishes itself from `git repo structure` largely by
its path-level reporting: in addition to whole-repo totals it lists the
paths whose object histories dominate the repository, ranked by raw
count, on-disk size, and inflated size, separately for trees and blobs.
That is often the most actionable output from `git survey`, since it
points an operator at the directories and files that should be reviewed
for cleanup, sparse-checkout exclusion, or rewriting.

`git repo structure` already drives the same path-walk traversal that
`git survey` uses to gather its per-path numbers; the callback simply
discards the path. Aggregate per-(path, type) summaries inside that
existing callback and add a bounded, descending-sorted "top-N" table
keyed by each of the three axes. Gate the feature behind a new
`--top=<n>` option, defaulting to 0, so unadorned invocations are
unaffected and pay no extra work for the top-N tracking.

Mirror the sort and eviction strategy from `builtin/survey.c`: keep an
array of at most N entries sorted from largest to smallest, walk it
from the bottom on each candidate, and shift entries down when a new
one belongs. Compared to `builtin/survey.c`, drop the void-pointer
indirection in the table data, type the comparator's arguments, and
fold the trivial comparators into the `(a > b) - (a < b)` idiom.

For the human-readable `table` output, extend the existing nested
bullet layout with two new top-level sections, `* Top trees` and
`* Top blobs`, each containing three sub-tables (`Top by count`,
`Top by disk size`, `Top by inflated size`). The path becomes the row
name and the relevant scalar becomes the value, reusing
`stats_table_count_addf` and `stats_table_size_addf` so units and
column alignment match the rest of the table.

For the `lines`/`nul` key-value formats, emit one
`objects.<type>.top.by_<axis>.<rank>.path=<path>` entry alongside an
`objects.<type>.top.by_<axis>.<rank>.<axis>=<value>` entry per ranked
path, so consumers can dispatch by axis without parsing the schema.
The root tree's path is the empty string as produced by the path-walk
machinery; preserve that as-is to stay faithful to the upstream
representation rather than fabricating a placeholder.

This is the first piece of folding `git survey`'s functionality into
`git repo structure`. Subsequent commits will add the corresponding
configuration knob and, eventually, turn `git survey` into a thin
deprecated shim over `git repo structure`.

This topic branch re-adds the deprecated --stdin/-z options to `git
reset`. Those patches were overridden by a different set of options in
the upstream Git project before we could propose `--stdin`.

We offered this in MinGit to applications that wanted a safer way to
pass lots of pathspecs to Git, and these applications will need to be
adjusted.

Instead of `--stdin`, `--pathspec-from-file=-` should be used, and
instead of `-z`, `--pathspec-file-nul`.

The preceding commit added `--top=<n>` to `git repo structure`,
reporting the top-N paths per type ranked by count, on-disk size, and
inflated size. Cover the three behaviors that matter for that option:

  * Without `--top`, the key-value output emits no `top.*` keys, so
    existing parsers stay unaffected.

  * `--top=N` produces exactly N ranked entries on each of the six
    `objects.<type>.top.by_<axis>` axes (count/disk_size/inflated_size
    crossed with trees/blobs), and a constructed input where one blob
    is several orders of magnitude bigger than the other lets us
    assert the ordering on the disk-size and inflated-size axes.

  * A negative `--top` is rejected with a non-zero exit and a message
    naming the constraint, so a typo cannot silently degrade into the
    default zero.

Avoid grep patterns starting with `--`; grep would parse the leading
double dash as an option terminator.

Originally introduced as `core.useBuiltinFSMonitor` in Git for Windows
and developed, improved and stabilized there, the built-in FSMonitor
only made it into upstream Git (after unnecessarily long hemming and
hawing and throwing overly perfectionist style review sticks into the
spokes) as `core.fsmonitor = true`.

In Git for Windows, with this topic branch, we re-introduce the
now-obsolete config setting, with warnings suggesting to existing users
how to switch to the new config setting, with the intention to
ultimately drop the patch at some stage.

`git survey` exposes its `--top` default via `survey.top` so that a
site or per-repository operator can switch the detail tables on once
and have every subsequent invocation include them. Mirror that
ergonomics for `git repo structure` so that, as `git survey`'s
functionality is folded into `git repo structure`, the configuration
side of the migration story stays equivalent.

Add a small `git_config_int` callback bound to `repo.structure.top`
and invoke it before `parse_options()`, so a `--top=<N>` on the
command line cleanly overrides the configured default (including
`--top=0` to opt out of the detail tables when configuration enables
them). Reject negative configured values with the same wording as the
command-line guard, since `git_config_int()` happily returns negative
integers.

Document the new variable in a fresh `Documentation/config/repo.adoc`
and wire it into the alphabetical includes in `Documentation/config.adoc`
between `repack.adoc` and `rerere.adoc`. Cover the precedence
behaviour with a t1901 test: a configured value enables the tables by
default, and a command-line `--top=0` suppresses them again.

Note that the reported paths respect the `core.quotePath` setting.

…updates

Start monitoring updates of Git for Windows' component in the open
`git survey` started life as an experimental scale-measurement tool;
the preceding commits give `git repo structure` the path-level detail
tables and ref-scoping mechanism that were `git survey`'s main draw,
so the two now overlap substantially. Plan the migration explicitly:
add a short notice at the top of the description making clear which
of `git survey`'s knobs map to which `git repo structure` option, and
state that a future release will turn `git survey` into a thin shim
over `git repo structure`.

Putting the notice in the description (rather than only the synopsis)
ensures it shows up in `git help survey` rendering before the reader
sees any option specifics, so an operator skimming the page learns
about the replacement before adopting any survey-specific flags.

`git survey` was an experimental scale-measurement tool whose
distinctive features (ref-kind filters, top-N path tables) are now
all available in `git repo structure`. With the path-level reporting
in place (commits "repo: filter the structure scope via
--ref-filter=<pattern>" and "repo: report top-N paths by count, disk,
and inflated size in structure"), there is no functionality `git
survey` provides that `git repo structure` cannot.

Replace the 764-line `git survey` implementation with a roughly
hundred-line shim that:

  * Accepts the existing `git survey` command line so callers in
    scripts continue to parse without changes.
  * Emits a deprecation warning naming the replacement command, so
    interactive users learn about the migration target.
  * Translates the survey-specific knobs into the equivalent
    `git repo structure` invocation and re-execs the canonical
    command via `execv_git_cmd()`. Per-kind ref selectors fan out
    into the corresponding `refs/heads/*`, `refs/tags/*`, etc.
    `--ref-filter` patterns; `--top=<N>` is forwarded directly;
    `--all-refs` becomes the absence of any `--ref-filter`.

Two survey options have no `git repo structure` counterpart:
`--verbose` controlled per-step trace output the new command does
not emit, and `--detached` selected the detached HEAD which
`git repo structure` does not enumerate separately. Both are
silently accepted and produce a single warning each, so old
invocations keep working while the absence of these knobs in `git
repo structure` is made visible.

Rewrite t8100 to assert the shim's contract: the deprecation
warning is printed, the output is byte-identical to a corresponding
`git repo structure` invocation, and the per-kind selector
translation produces the right `--ref-filter` pattern. The
preceding survey-specific output assertions (the multi-column
plaintext tables) no longer apply, since `git repo structure`'s
output format is now the canonical one and is covered by t1901.

The `survey.*` configuration keys (`survey.top`, `survey.progress`,
`survey.verbose`) are no longer honored by the shim. They were
mirrored by the preceding `repo.structure.top` work for the most
useful knob; users with `survey.top` set in config should migrate
to `repo.structure.top`. This is a backward-incompatible removal
documented by the deprecation notice in `git-survey.adoc`.

…it-for-windows#6268)

`git survey` was always experimental, and I never got around to
upstreaming it to make it non-experimental.

In the meantime, the `git repo structure` command was upstreamed
upstream, which covers most of the same ground with a cleaner option
surface and a stable output contract. This PR closes the remaining gap
(annotated-tag breakdown, ref scoping, top-N paths by
count/disk/inflated, and the corresponding configuration knob) and then
turns `git survey` into a thin shim that warns about deprecation,
translates its old command line into the equivalent `git repo structure`
invocation, and re-execs the canonical command. Net result: one
user-facing tool to maintain and to teach instead of two.

The intent is that scripts pinned to `git survey` keep working (a
warning aside), and that operators have a single answer when they ask
"how do I see what's making my repository large?". The `survey.*`
configuration keys are intentionally dropped; the only one that
mattered, `survey.top`, has a direct replacement in
`repo.structure.top`.
