unify and bump _WIN32_WINNT definition to Windows 8.1

2026-04-06T17:06:20Z

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.

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

trace2: emit cmd_ancestry data for Windows

2026-02-13T20:18:31Z

Since 2f732bf15e (tr2: log parent process name, 2021-07-21) it is now now possible to emit a specific process ancestry event in TRACE2. We should emit the Windows process ancestry data with the correct event type. To not break existing consumers of the data_json "windows/ancestry" event, we continue to emit the ancestry data as a JSON event. Signed-off-by: Matthew John Cheetham Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano

trace2: refactor Windows process ancestry trace2 event

2026-02-13T20:18:31Z

In 353d3d77f4 (trace2: collect Windows-specific process information, 2019-02-22) we added process ancestry information for Windows to TRACE2 via a data_json event. It was only later in 2f732bf15e (tr2: log parent process name, 2021-07-21) that the specific cmd_ancestry event was added to TRACE2. In a future commit we will emit the ancestry information with the newer cmd_ancestry TRACE2 event. Right now, we rework this implementation of trace2_collect_process_info to separate the calculation of ancestors from building and emiting the JSON array via a data_json event.

compat/win32: fix -Wsign-compare warning in "wWinMain()"

2024-12-06T11:20:01Z

GCC generates a warning in "headless.c" because we compare `slash` with `size`, where the former is an `int` and the latter is a `size_t`. Fix the warning by storing `slash` as a `size_t`, as well. This commit is being singled out because the file does not include the "git-compat-util.h" header, and consequently, we cannot easily mark it with the `DISABLE_SIGN_COMPARE_WARNING` macro.
