git/compat, branch v2.40.2

Merge branch 'sk/winansi-createthread-fix'

2023-02-09T22:40:47Z

Fix use of CreateThread() API call made early in the windows start-up code. * sk/winansi-createthread-fix: compat/winansi: check for errors of CreateThread() correctly

compat/winansi: check for errors of CreateThread() correctly

2023-02-01T22:36:19Z

The return value for failed thread creation is NULL, not INVALID_HANDLE_VALUE, unlike other Windows API functions. Signed-off-by: Seija Kijin Acked-by: Johannes Sixt Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano

Merge branch 'sk/win32-close-handle-upon-pthread-join'

2023-01-23T21:39:51Z

Pthread emulation on Win32 leaked thread handle when a thread is joined. * sk/win32-close-handle-upon-pthread-join: win32: close handles of threads that have been joined win32: prepare pthread.c for change by formatting

Merge branch 'rs/use-enhanced-bre-on-macos'

2023-01-23T21:39:51Z

Newer regex library macOS stopped enabling GNU-like enhanced BRE, where '\(A\|B\)' works as alternation, unless explicitly asked with the REG_ENHANCED flag. "git grep" now can be compiled to do so, to retain the old behaviour. * rs/use-enhanced-bre-on-macos: use enhanced basic regular expressions on macOS

Merge branch 'rs/dup-array'

2023-01-22T01:21:58Z

Code cleaning. * rs/dup-array: use DUP_ARRAY add DUP_ARRAY do full type check in BARF_UNLESS_COPYABLE factor out BARF_UNLESS_COPYABLE mingw: make argv2 in try_shell_exec() non-const

use DUP_ARRAY

2023-01-09T04:28:36Z

Add a semantic patch for replace ALLOC_ARRAY+COPY_ARRAY with DUP_ARRAY to reduce code duplication and apply its results. Signed-off-by: René Scharfe Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano

mingw: make argv2 in try_shell_exec() non-const

2023-01-09T04:28:21Z

Prepare for a stricter type check in COPY_ARRAY by removing the const qualifier of argv2, like we already do to placate Visual Studio. We have to add it back using explicit casts when actually using the variable, unfortunately, because GCC (rightly) refuses to add it implicitly. Similar casts are already used in mingw_execv().

use enhanced basic regular expressions on macOS

2023-01-08T01:06:34Z

When 1819ad327b (grep: fix multibyte regex handling under macOS, 2022-08-26) started to use the native regex library instead of Git's own (compat/regex/), it lost support for alternation in basic regular expressions. Bring it back by enabling the flag REG_ENHANCED on macOS when compiling basic regular expressions.

Merge branch 'dh/mingw-ownership-check-typofix'

2023-01-05T06:07:18Z

Error message typofix. * dh/mingw-ownership-check-typofix: mingw: fix typo in an error message from ownership check

win32: close handles of threads that have been joined

2023-01-04T06:39:47Z

After the thread terminates, the handle to the original thread should be closed. This change makes win32_pthread_join POSIX compliant. Signed-off-by: Seija Kijin Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano
