René Scharfe	43a7ddb55d	Fix GIT_CEILING_DIRECTORIES on Windows Using git with GIT_CEILING_DIRECTORIES crashed on Windows due to a failed assertion in normalize_absolute_path(): This function expects absolute paths to start with a slash, while on Windows they can start with a drive letter or a backslash. This fixes it by using the alternative, normalize_path_copy() instead, which can handle Windows-style paths just fine. Secondly, the portability macro PATH_SEP is used instead of expecting colons to be used as path list delimiter. The test script t1504 is also changed to help MSYS's bash recognize some program arguments as path list. (MSYS's bash must translate POSIX-style path lists to Windows-style path lists, and the heuristic did not catch some cases.)

Fix GIT_CEILING_DIRECTORIES on Windows

Using git with GIT_CEILING_DIRECTORIES crashed on Windows due to a failed
assertion in normalize_absolute_path(): This function expects absolute
paths to start with a slash, while on Windows they can start with a drive
letter or a backslash.

This fixes it by using the alternative, normalize_path_copy() instead,
which can handle Windows-style paths just fine.

Secondly, the portability macro PATH_SEP is used instead of expecting
colons to be used as path list delimiter.

The test script t1504 is also changed to help MSYS's bash recognize some
program arguments as path list. (MSYS's bash must translate POSIX-style
path lists to Windows-style path lists, and the heuristic did not catch
some cases.)

Add support for GIT_CEILING_DIRECTORIES

Make git recognize a new environment variable that prevents it from
chdir'ing up into specified directories when looking for a GIT_DIR.
Useful for avoiding slow network directories.

For example, I use git in an environment where homedirs are automounted
and "ls /home/nonexistent" takes about 9 seconds.  Setting
GIT_CEILING_DIRS="/home" allows "git help -a" (for bash completion) and
"git symbolic-ref" (for my shell prompt) to run in a reasonable time.
