In Git for Windows v2.39.0, we fixed a regression where `git.exe` would
no longer work in Windows Nano Server (frequently used in Docker
containers).

This GitHub workflow can be used to verify manually that the Git/Scalar
executables work in Nano Server.

When running Git for Windows on a remote APFS filesystem, it would
appear that the `mingw_open_append()`/`write()` combination would fail
almost exactly like on some CIFS-mounted shares as had been reported in
git-for-windows#2753, albeit with a
different `errno` value.

Let's handle that `errno` value just the same, by suggesting to set
`windows.appendAtomically=false`.

Windows 10 version 1511 (also known as Anniversary Update), according to
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/console/console-virtual-terminal-sequences
introduced native support for ANSI sequence processing. This allows
using colors from the entire 24-bit color range.

All we need to do is test whether the console's "virtual processing
support" can be enabled. If it can, we do not even need to start the
`console_thread` to handle ANSI sequences.

Or, almost all we need to do: When `console_thread()` does its work, it
uses the Unicode-aware `write_console()` function to write to the Win32
Console, which supports Git for Windows' implicit convention that all
text that is written is encoded in UTF-8. The same is not necessarily
true if native ANSI sequence processing is used, as the output is then
subject to the current code page. Let's ensure that the code page is set
to `CP_UTF8` as long as Git writes to it.

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`.

A long time ago, we decided to run tests in Git for Windows' SDK with
the default `winsymlinks` mode: copying instead of linking. This is
still the default mode of MSYS2 to this day.

However, this is not how most users run Git for Windows: As the majority
of Git for Windows' users seem to be on Windows 10 and newer, likely
having enabled Developer Mode (which allows creating symbolic links
without administrator privileges), they will run with symlink support
enabled.

This is the reason why it is crucial to get the fixes for CVE-2024-? to
the users, and also why it is crucial to ensure that the test suite
exercises the related test cases. This commit ensures the latter.

In order to be a better Windows citizenship, Git should
save its configuration files on AppData folder. This can
enables git configuration files be replicated between machines
using the same Microsoft account logon which would reduce the
friction of setting up Git on new systems. Therefore, if
%APPDATA%\Git\config exists, we use it; otherwise
$HOME/.config/git/config is used.

Git LFS is now built with Go 1.21 which no longer supports Windows 7.
However, Git for Windows still wants to support Windows 7.

Ideally, Git LFS would re-introduce Windows 7 support until Git for
Windows drops support for Windows 7, but that's not going to happen:
git-for-windows#4996 (comment)

The next best thing we can do is to let the users know what is
happening, and how to get out of their fix, at least.

This is not quite as easy as it would first seem because programs
compiled with Go 1.21 or newer will simply throw an exception and fail
with an Access Violation on Windows 7.

The only way I found to address this is to replicate the logic from Go's
very own `version` command (which can determine the Go version with
which a given executable was built) to detect the situation, and in that
case offer a helpful error message.

This addresses git-for-windows#4996.

The sparse tree walk algorithm was created in d5d2e93 (revision:
implement sparse algorithm, 2019-01-16) and involves using the
mark_trees_uninteresting_sparse() method. This method takes a repository
and an oidset of tree IDs, some of which have the UNINTERESTING flag and
some of which do not.

Create a method that has an equivalent set of preconditions but uses a
"dense" walk (recursively visits all reachable trees, as long as they
have not previously been marked UNINTERESTING). This is an important
difference from mark_tree_uninteresting(), which short-circuits if the
given tree has the UNINTERESTING flag.

A use of this method will be added in a later change, with a condition
set whether the sparse or dense approach should be used.

While this command is definitely something we _want_, chances are that
upstreaming this will require substantial changes.

We still want to be able to experiment with this before that, to focus
on what we need out of this command: To assist with diagnosing issues
with large repositories, as well as to help monitoring the growth and
the associated painpoints of such repositories.

To that end, we are about to integrate this command into
`microsoft/git`, to get the tool into the hands of users who need it
most, with the idea to iterate in close collaboration between these
users and the developers familar with Git's internals.

However, we will definitely want to avoid letting anybody have the
impression that this command, its exact inner workings, as well as its
output format, are anywhere close to stable. To make that fact utterly
clear (and thereby protect the freedom to iterate and innovate freely
before upstreaming the command), let's mark its output as experimental
in all-caps, as the first thing we do.

In 245670c (credential-cache: check for windows specific errors, 2021-09-14)
we concluded that on Windows we would always encounter ENETDOWN where we
would expect ECONNREFUSED on POSIX systems, when connecting to unix sockets.
As reported in [1], we do encounter ECONNREFUSED on Windows if the
socket file doesn't exist, but the containing directory does and ENETDOWN if
neither exists. We should handle this case like we do on non-windows systems.

The reftable library goes out of its way to use its own set of allocator
functions that can be configured using `reftable_set_alloc()`. However,
Git does not configure this.

That is not typically a problem, except when Git uses a custom allocator
via some definitions in `git-compat-util.h`, as is the case in Git for
Windows (which switched away from the long-unmaintained nedmalloc to
mimalloc).

Then, it is quite possible that Git assigns a `strbuf` (allocated via
the custom allocator) to, say, the `refname` field of a
`reftable_log_record` in `write_transaction_table()`, and later on asks
the reftable library function `reftable_log_record_release()` to release
it, but that function was compiled without using `git-compat-util.h` and
hence calls regular `free()` (i.e. _not_ the custom allocator's own
function).

This has been a problem for a long time and it was a matter of some sort
of "luck" that 1) reftables are not commonly used on Windows, and 2)
mimalloc can often ignore gracefully when it is asked to release memory
that it has not allocated.

However, a recent update to `seen` brought this problem to the
forefront, letting t1460 fail in Git for Windows, with symptoms much in
the same way as the problem I had to address in d02c37c
(t-reftable-basics: allow for `malloc` to be `#define`d, 2025-01-08)
where exit code 127 was also produced in lieu of
`STATUS_HEAP_CORRUPTION` (C0000374) because exit codes are only 7 bits
wide.

It was not possible to figure out what change in particular caused these
new failures within a reasonable time frame, as there are too many
changes in `seen` that conflict with Git for Windows' patches, I had to
stop the investigation after spending four hours on it fruitlessly.

To verify that this patch fixes the issue, I avoided using mimalloc and
temporarily patched in a "custom allocator" that would more reliably
point out problems, like this:

I briefly considered contributing this "custom allocator" patch, too,
but it is unwieldy (for example, it would not work at all when compiling
with mimalloc support) and it would only waste space (or even time, if a
compile flag was introduced and exercised as part of the CI builds).
Given that it is highly unlikely that Git will lose the new
`reftable_set_alloc()` call by mistake, I rejected that idea as simply
too wasteful.

Every once in a while, whitespace errors are introduced in Git for
Windows' rebases to newer Git versions, simply by virtue of integrating
upstream commits that do not follow upstream Git's own whitespace rule.
In Git v2.50.0-rc0, for example, 03f2915 (xdiff: disable
cleanup_records heuristic with --minimal, 2025-04-29) introduced a
trailing space.

Arguably, non-actionable alerts are worse than no alerts at all, so
let's suppress those alerts that we cannot do anything about, anyway.

Preparation for widening the delta-encoding API to size_t in
subsequent commits, which is what lets pack-objects drop the
cast_size_t_to_ulong() shims that 606c192 (odb, packfile: use
size_t for streaming object sizes, 2026-05-08) had to leave behind
in get_delta() and try_delta() because their downstream consumers
were still narrow.

The struct is private to diff-delta.c, so widening its fields in
isolation is a no-op at runtime: the values stored continue to fit
in 32 bits on Windows because the public API around it still
truncates. Splitting it out keeps the API-change commit focused on
caller updates.

These three are a single accounting tuple (the globals tracking
cumulative cached-delta bytes, plus the helper that compares them
against an incoming delta size) and are latently 32-bit on Windows
where unsigned long != size_t: a pack with many large cached deltas
could wrap silently.

The widening is internally consistent on its own: the additions and
subtractions against delta_cache_size already come from size_t
sources (DELTA_SIZE() returns size_t), and delta_cacheable()'s sole
caller in try_delta() still passes unsigned long, which promotes.

Prerequisite for dropping try_delta()'s cast_size_t_to_ulong()
shims, which becomes possible once create_delta() and diff_delta()
are widened in a later commit.

free_unpacked() sums two byte counts: sizeof_delta_index() and
SIZE(n->entry). The latter has been size_t since the prior topic
"More work supporting objects larger than 4GB on Windows" widened
SIZE() / oe_size() to size_t, so accumulating it into an unsigned
long return was a silent Windows-only truncation on a packing run
with many large objects.

The sole caller (find_deltas()) holds its own mem_usage in an
unsigned long for now and subtracts the return into it, so the new
narrowing happens at that subtraction. find_deltas() and the
matching try_delta() out-parameter are widened next.

The pair must move together because find_deltas() passes &mem_usage
to try_delta(): widening either alone breaks the type match.

mem_usage accumulates per-object byte counts already computed in
size_t (SIZE() and sizeof_delta_index() reach here through
free_unpacked(), now size_t), and was the last 32-bit-on-Windows
narrowing point in the delta-window memory accounting chain. With
this commit, that chain is internally size_t end-to-end except for
sizeof_delta_index()'s still-narrow return, whose value is bounded
by create_delta_index()'s entries cap.

window_memory_limit (config-driven via git_config_ulong()) stays
unsigned long: it is only compared against mem_usage and promotes.

Last stop in the delta-encoding API widening for >4 GiB blobs on
Windows: with create_delta_index() done in the prior commit and
create_delta()/diff_delta() finished here, every byte count that
crosses delta.h is now size_t. The struct fields they store into
have been size_t since the diff-delta struct widening.

The API change must move with all callers in the same commit (the
build only passes when every &delta_size matches the new size_t*).
Caller updates are kept minimal:

  * builtin/pack-objects.c get_delta() and try_delta(): widen only
    the local delta_size variable; the surrounding unsigned-long
    locals and their cast_size_t_to_ulong() shims are out of scope
    here and will be cleaned up in their own commits.

  * builtin/fast-import.c, diff.c, t/helper/test-pack-deltas.c:
    keep the local unsigned-long delta size (each feeds a still-
    unsigned-long downstream consumer: zlib's avail_in,
    deflate_it(), the test helper's own do_compress()), and bridge
    via a temporary size_t plus cast_size_t_to_ulong(). The new
    casts are paid back in later topics that widen those consumers.

  * t/helper/test-delta.c: widen the local outright (no downstream
    consumer beyond the test's own out_size, which is already
    size_t).

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",

Bundling the two widenings: four call sites pass &stream.avail_in
directly to use_pack(), and widening either type fencepost alone
would force a bridge variable at each. Doing both together is the
simpler end state and is the prerequisite for the do_compress()
widening in the next commit, which is what lets
write_no_reuse_object() lose its last cast_size_t_to_ulong() shim.

The unsigned-long locals widened at the other use_pack() callers
(avail / remaining / left) hold pack-window sizes bounded by
core.packedGitWindowSize, so the change is type consistency rather
than a new >4GB capability. git_zstream.avail_in / avail_out
likewise reach zlib's uInt fields only after zlib_buf_cap()'s 1 GiB

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.

The local is initialised from git_deflate_bound() (an unsigned upper
bound on the deflated output, never negative) and used in exactly
three places: the initialising assignment, strbuf_grow(buf, size)
whose parameter is already size_t, and stream.avail_out which became
size_t in the prior commit. There is no comparison against zero or a
negative value, no subtraction, no arithmetic that depends on
signedness, and no path that would assign a signed quantity to it.

The original ssize_t was the wrong type to begin with: a
git_deflate_bound() result above SSIZE_MAX would have wrapped
negative on assignment and then implicitly re-extended to a huge
size_t at strbuf_grow() / stream.avail_out, requesting an absurd
allocation. That is not a real-world concern for the object sizes
http-push pushes today, but it is also the reason the type needs to
move to size_t before git_deflate_bound() itself is widened.

Reintroduce the 'core.useBuiltinFSMonitor' config setting (originally added
in 0a756b2 (fsmonitor: config settings are repository-specific,
2021-03-05)) after its removal from the upstream version of FSMonitor.

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.

In this time and age, AI is everywhere. However, it's sometimes not very
easy to use. For green-field projects it works quite a bit better than
for existing legacy projects. And Git's source code is _quite_ as legacy
code as they come... 😁

Now, the only way how AI can be used efficiently with legacy code
is by providing enough information by way of prompt context for the
AI to have a chance to make any sense of the code. The structure and
the architecture is, after all, not designed for AI, but rather the
opposite: By virtue of having grown organically over two decades, there
is no design that AI coding models would readily grasp.

So here is a document that describes all kinds of aspects about this
project. The idea is to help AI by providing information that it does
not have ingrained in its weights. The idea is to provide information
that a human prompter might take for granted, but no coding model will
have been trained on specifically.

These are Git for Windows' Git GUI and gitk patches. We will have to
decide at some point what to do about them, but that's a little lower
priority (as Git GUI seems to be unmaintained for the time being, and
the gitk maintainer keeps a very low profile on the Git mailing list,
too).

Git for Windows accepts pull requests; Core Git does not. Therefore we
need to adjust the template (because it only matches core Git's
project management style, not ours).

Also: direct Git for Windows enhancements to their contributions page,
space out the text for easy reading, and clarify that the mailing list
is plain text, not HTML.

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`.

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.

Upstream Git does not test their tags with the expensive set of tests,
so a couple of them seem quite broken for now, even so much as hanging
indefinitely.

It is outside of the responsibility of the Git for Windows project to
fix upstream's own tests for platforms other than Windows, so let's not
exercise them.

Add a README.md for GitHub goodness.

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.

Tests in t1901 widened to assert the new row and key.

`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`.

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.

`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.

`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`.

Git for Windows dropped Windows 7 support a long time ago. This patch
was carried in Git for Windows without making it upstream, and exists
exclusively to support Windows 7 users. Therefore it can now go enjoy
its retirement.

`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`.
Git for Windows dropped Windows 7 support a long time ago.

There is a patch (introduced in
git-for-windows#5042 and in git-for-windows#5059) to detect
when Git LFS failed to start because of lack of Windows 7 support (which
was lost somewhat surprisingly, via a Go upgrade that slipped that
change in), and to provid a helpful message to the user in that
instance.

Since Git for Windows itself does not support Windows 7 anymore, that
patch is no longer necessary, either.
