56cef9cb1a (fsmonitor: use pthread_cond_timedwait for cookie wait,
2026-04-15) limits the cookie wait to one second so that a filesystem
which never delivers events cannot hang fsmonitor clients. A client that
times out receives a trivial response and scans the entire index.
FSEvents can defer delivery while it batches notifications and does not
guarantee that its queue is drained in one latency interval. A loaded
macOS system can therefore time out even though the event stream is
working.
On an Apple M4 Max (16 cores, 128 GiB RAM) running macOS 26.5.2, two
worktrees with a 1,001,178-entry index timed out 484 of 545 and 297 of
365 fsmonitor requests. One status call performed 934,519 lstat() calls
during a 47-second preload and took 52 seconds overall.
Ask FSEvents to flush pending notifications after creating the cookie
and before starting the timed wait. Use the asynchronous form because
the client handler holds main_lock, which the listener callback also
acquires. Keep the timeout and the behavior of the other backends
unchanged.

git_pread() saves the current file offset via lseek(fd, 0,
SEEK_CUR) and later restores it. If the initial lseek fails
(e.g., the fd is a pipe or otherwise non-seekable),
current_offset is -1. This negative value is later passed to
lseek(fd, -1, SEEK_SET) at line 16, which sets the file position
to an unintended location (or fails with EINVAL on some
platforms).
Check the initial lseek return value and return -1 immediately
if it fails, consistent with the error handling for the other
lseek calls in the same function.

After "mingw: kill child processes in a gentler way", the ownership of
the HANDLE passed to `exit_process()` and `terminate_process_tree()` is
inconsistent. `terminate_process_tree()` always closes the handle;
`exit_process()` closes it on success and on the terminate-tree
fallback, but leaks it on the early return where GetExitCodeProcess()
fails or reports the process is no longer STILL_ACTIVE.
`mingw_kill()` compensated by closing the handle on its own error path,
which is a double-close on every error path that does not hit that one
leaky branch -- the callee has already closed the handle by then.
Coverity flagged the resulting use-after-free as CID 1437238.
Pin down the invariant that `exit_process()` and
`terminate_process_tree()` own the handle from the call onward and close
it on every return path; with that, the bogus close in `mingw_kill()`

On Windows, `unsigned long` and `long` are 32 bits even on 64-bit
builds. The MSVC compatibility header has shimmed `ftruncate()` with
#define ftruncate _chsize
ever since `compat/msvc-posix.h` was introduced. `_chsize()` takes a
32-bit `long` for the new length, which silently truncates files (and
the requested size) to 2 GiB. That is enough to make t7508 test 126
"git add fails gracefully with 4 GiB and 8 GiB files" fail under
MSVC: `test-tool truncate` creates a sparse 4 GiB or 8 GiB file via
the shimmed `ftruncate()`, and the test never gets off the ground.
`_chsize_s()` is the modern replacement, accepts a 64-bit `__int64`
length, and is the only sensible target on Windows. The catch is that
it does not follow the POSIX `-1` + `errno` convention: it returns
`0` on success and an errno value (a small positive integer) on
failure. A plain `#define ftruncate _chsize_s` would therefore
silently break callers that test the return value as `< 0` or against
`-1`, of which there are several: `http.c`, `parallel-checkout.c`,
and `t/helper/test-truncate.c` among them.
Introduce a `static inline` wrapper that calls `_chsize_s()`, copies
its errno return into `errno`, and translates the result to the
familiar `-1` / `0` convention, then point `ftruncate` at the
wrapper. Place the wrapper after `#include "mingw-posix.h"` so the
`off_t` parameter resolves to the already-widened `off64_t` rather
than the 32-bit `_off_t` from `compat/vcbuild/include/unistd.h`.
MinGW is unaffected: its `ftruncate()` already takes `off_t` and
routes through `ftruncate64()` when `_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64`, which is
the default in our build.

The TerminateProcess() function does not actually leave the child
processes any chance to perform any cleanup operations. This is bad
insofar as Git itself expects its signal handlers to run.
A symptom is e.g. a left-behind .lock file that would not be left behind
if the same operation was run, say, on Linux.
To remedy this situation, we use an obscure trick: we inject a thread
into the process that needs to be killed and to let that thread run the
ExitProcess() function with the desired exit status. Thanks J Wyman for
describing this trick.
The advantage is that the ExitProcess() function lets the atexit
handlers run. While this is still different from what Git expects (i.e.
running a signal handler), in practice Git sets up signal handlers and
atexit handlers that call the same code to clean up after itself.
In case that the gentle method to terminate the process failed, we still
fall back to calling TerminateProcess(), but in that case we now also
make sure that processes spawned by the spawned process are terminated;
TerminateProcess() does not give the spawned process a chance to do so
itself.
Please note that this change only affects how Git for Windows tries to
terminate processes spawned by Git's own executables. Third-party
software that *calls* Git and wants to terminate it *still* need to make
sure to imitate this gentle method, otherwise this patch will not have
any effect.

eagerly because it controls Unicode path normalization on macOS,

libification. This preserves the existing behavior while tying the

git-zlib: handle data streams larger than 4GB

To test Git's behavior with very large pack files, we need a way to
generate such files quickly.
A naive approach using only readily-available Git commands would take
over 10 hours for a 4GB pack file, which is prohibitive.
Side-stepping Git's machinery and actual zlib compression by writing
uncompressed content with the appropriate zlib header makes things
much faster. The fastest method using this approach generates many
small, unreachable blob objects and takes about 1.5 minutes for 4GB.
However, this cannot be used because we need to test git clone, which
requires a reachable commit history.
Generating many reachable commits with small, uncompressed blobs takes
about 4 minutes for 4GB. But this approach 1) does not reproduce the
issues we want to fix (which require individual objects larger than
4GB) and 2) is comparatively slow because of the many SHA-1
calculations.
The approach taken here generates a single large blob (filled with NUL
bytes), along with the trees and commits needed to make it reachable.
This takes about 2.5 minutes for 4.5GB, which is the fastest option
that produces a valid, clonable repository with an object large enough
to trigger the bugs we want to test.

At some point between Windows 10 Build 17134.1304 and Build 18363.657,
the default behavior of `DeleteFileW()` was changed to use POSIX
semantics (https://stackoverflow.com/a/60512798). Under those semantics,
a file can be deleted even when another process holds an active
`MapViewOfFile` view on it: the directory entry is removed immediately,
but the underlying data persists until the last handle is closed.
On older Windows versions (and Windows 10 builds before that change),
`DeleteFileW()` uses legacy semantics where deletion fails outright if
any process holds a file mapping.
To allow testing code paths that depend on the legacy behavior, introduce
a `GIT_TEST_LEGACY_DELETE` environment variable. When set, `mingw_unlink()`
uses `SetFileInformationByHandle()` with `FileDispositionInfo` (the
non-POSIX variant) instead of `DeleteFileW()`, forcing legacy delete
semantics regardless of the Windows version.

Implement the built-in fsmonitor daemon for Linux using the inotify
API, bringing it to feature parity with the existing Windows and macOS
implementations.
The implementation uses inotify rather than fanotify because fanotify
requires either CAP_SYS_ADMIN or CAP_PERFMON capabilities, making it
unsuitable for an unprivileged user-space daemon. While inotify has
the limitation of requiring a separate watch on every directory (unlike
macOS's FSEvents, which can monitor an entire directory tree with a
single watch), it operates without elevated privileges and provides
the per-file event granularity needed for fsmonitor.
The listener uses inotify_init1(O_NONBLOCK) with a poll loop that
checks for events with a 50-millisecond timeout, keeping the inotify
queue well-drained to minimize the risk of overflows. Bidirectional
hashmaps map between watch descriptors and directory paths for efficient
event resolution. Directory renames are tracked using inotify's cookie
mechanism to correlate IN_MOVED_FROM and IN_MOVED_TO event pairs; a
periodic check detects stale renames where the matching IN_MOVED_TO
never arrived, forcing a resync.
New directory creation triggers recursive watch registration to ensure
all subdirectories are monitored. The IN_MASK_CREATE flag is used
where available to prevent modifying existing watches, with a fallback
for older kernels. When IN_MASK_CREATE is available and
inotify_add_watch returns EEXIST, it means another thread or recursive
scan has already registered the watch, so it is safe to ignore.
Remote filesystem detection uses statfs() to identify network-mounted
filesystems (NFS, CIFS, SMB, FUSE, etc.) via their magic numbers.
Mount point information is read from /proc/mounts and matched against
the statfs f_fsid to get accurate, human-readable filesystem type names
for logging. When the .git directory is on a remote filesystem, the
IPC socket falls back to $HOME or a user-configured directory via the
fsmonitor.socketDir setting.

implementation. Rename it to fsm-ipc-unix.c to reflect that it
is shared by all Unix platforms.
Introduce FSMONITOR_OS_SETTINGS (set to "unix" for non-Windows, "win32"
for Windows) as a separate variable from FSMONITOR_DAEMON_BACKEND so
that the build files can distinguish between platform-specific files
(listen, health, path-utils) and shared Unix files (ipc, settings).
Move fsm-ipc to the FSMONITOR_OS_SETTINGS section in the Makefile, and
switch fsm-path-utils to use FSMONITOR_DAEMON_BACKEND since path-utils
is platform-specific (there will be separate darwin and linux versions).

1edeb9a (Win32: warn if the console font doesn't support Unicode,
2014-06-10) introduced both code to detect the current console font on
Windows Vista and newer and a fallback for older systems to detect the
default console font and issue a warning if that font doesn't support
unicode.
Since we haven't supported any Windows older than Vista in almost a
decade, we don't need to keep the workaround.

Git for Windows doesn't support anything prior to Windows 8.1 since 2.47.0
and Git followed along with commits like ce6ccba (mingw: drop Windows
7-specific work-around, 2025-08-04).
There is no need to pretend to the compiler that we still support Windows
Vista, just to lock us out of easy access to newer APIs. There is also no
need to have conflicting and unused definitions claiming we support some
versions of Windows XP or even Windows NT 4.0.
Bump all definitions of _WIN32_WINNT to a realistic value of Windows 8.1.
This will also simplify code for a followup commit that will improve cpu
core detection on multi-socket systems.

The `mingw_strftime()` wrapper exists to work around msvcrt.dll's
incomplete `strftime()` implementation by dynamically loading the
version from ucrtbase.dll at runtime via `LoadLibrary()` +
`GetProcAddress()`. When the binary is already linked against UCRT
(i.e. when building in the UCRT64 environment), the linked-in
`strftime()` is the ucrtbase.dll version, making the dynamic loading
needless churn: It's calling the very same code.
Simply guard both the declaration and implementation so that the
unnecessary work-around is skipped in UCRT builds.

Recently some GitHub CI jobs were broken by update on the platform
side, which was eventually resolved by image rollback, but in the
meantime Dscho invented a workaround patch to sidestep the broken
part of the platform. Their future image update may contain the
same bug, in which case the workaround may again become needed.
As we do not want to be building with workaround that avoids system
regexp library altogether unless the system is known to be broken,
so short of an automated "detect broken system and apply workaround"
mechanism, let's use the folks who are compiling the code to detect
breakage on their system and cope with the breakage ;-)

Reduce system overhead "git upload-pack" spends on relaying "git
pack-objects" output to the "git fetch" running on the other end of
the connection.
* ps/upload-pack-buffer-more-writes:
builtin/pack-objects: reduce lock contention when writing packfile data
csum-file: drop `hashfd_throughput()`
csum-file: introduce `hashfd_ext()`
sideband: use writev(3p) to send pktlines
wrapper: introduce writev(3p) wrappers
compat/posix: introduce writev(3p) wrapper
upload-pack: reduce lock contention when writing packfile data
upload-pack: prefer flushing data over sending keepalive
upload-pack: adapt keepalives based on buffering
upload-pack: fix debug statement when flushing packfile data
In a subsequent commit we're going to add the first caller to
writev(3p). Introduce a compatibility wrapper for this syscall that we
can use on systems that don't have this syscall.
The syscall exists on modern Unixes like Linux and macOS, and seemingly
even for NonStop according to [1]. It doesn't seem to exist on Windows
though.

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:
lockfile: add PID file for debugging stale locks
