975fc0471a compat/mingw: rename the symlink, not the target
Since 183ea3ea (Merge branch 'ps/mingw-rename', 2024-11-13),
a new technique is used on Windows to rename files, where supported.
The first step of this technique is to open the file with
`CreateFileW`. At that time, `FILE_ATTRIBUTE_NORMAL` was passed as
the value of the `dwFlagsAndAttributes` argument. In b30404df [2], this
was improved by passing `FILE_FLAG_BACKUP_SEMANTICS`, to support
directories as well as regular files.

However, neither value of `dwFlagsAndAttributes` is sufficient to open
a symbolic link with the correct semantics to rename it. Symlinks on
Windows are reparse points. Attempting to open a reparse point with
`CreateFileW` dereferences the reparse point and opens the target
instead, unless `FILE_FLAG_OPEN_REPARSE_POINT` is included in
`dwFlagsAndAttributes`. This is documented for that flag and in the
"Symbolic Link Behavior" section of the `CreateFileW` docs [3].

This produces a regression where attempting to rename a symlink on
Windows renames its target to the intended new name and location of the
symlink. For example, if `symlink` points to `file`, then running

    git mv symlink symlink-renamed

leaves `symlink` in place and unchanged, but renames `file` to
`symlink-renamed` [4].

This regression is detectable by existing tests in `t7001-mv.sh`, but
the tests must be run by a Windows user with the ability to create
symlinks, and the `ln -s` command used to create the initial symlink
must also be able to create a real symlink (such as by setting the
`MSYS` environment variable to `winsymlinks:nativestrict`). Then
these two tests fail if the regression is present, and pass otherwise:

    38 - git mv should overwrite file with a symlink
    39 - check moved symlink

Let's fix this, so that renaming a symlink again renames the symlink
itself and leaves the target unchanged, by passing

    FILE_FLAG_BACKUP_SEMANTICS | FILE_FLAG_OPEN_REPARSE_POINT

as the `dwFlagsAndAttributes` argument. This is sufficient (and safe)
because including `FILE_FLAG_OPEN_REPARSE_POINT` causes no harm even
when used to open a file or directory that is not a reparse point. In
that case, as noted in [3], this flag is simply ignored.

b4c06f7c4d gitk: introduce support for the Meson build system
Upstream Git has introduced support for the Meson build system.
Introduce support for Meson into gitk, as well, so that Git can easily
build its vendored copy of Gitk via a `subproject()` directive. The
instructions can be set up as follows:

  $ meson setup build
  $ meson compile -C build
  $ meson install -C build

Specific options, like for example where Gitk shall be installed to, can
be specified at setup time via `-D`. Available options can be discovered
by running `meson configure` either in the source or build directory.

0bf8d1b395 meson: fix Perl version check for Meson versions before 1.7.0
Command `perl --version` says, e.g., “This is perl 5, version 26,
subversion 0 (v5.26.0)”, which older versions of Meson interpret as
version 26.

This will be fixed in Meson 1.7.0, but at the time of writing that isn’t
yet released.

If we run `perl -V:version` we get the unambiguous response
“version='5.26.0';”, but we need at least Meson 1.5.0 to be able to do that.

Note that Perl are seriously considering dropping the leading 5 entirely
in the near future (https://perl.github.io/PPCs/ppc0025-perl-version/),
but that shouldn’t affect us.

d874d37837 meson: bump minimum required Perl version to 5.26.0
Commit 702d8c1f3b (Require Perl 5.26.0, 2024-10-23) dropped support
for Perl versions older than 5.26.0. The Meson build system, which
has been developed in parallel to that commit, hasn't been bumped
accordingly and thus still requires Perl 5.8.1 or newer.

Fix this by requiring Perl 5.26.0 or newer with Meson.

a620046b29 diff: don't crash with empty argument to -G or -S
The pickaxe options, -G and -S, need either a regex or a string to look
through the history for.  An empty value isn't very useful since it
would either match everything or nothing, and what's worse, we presently
crash with a BUG like so when the user provides one:

    BUG: diffcore-pickaxe.c:241: should have needle under -G or -S

Since it's not very nice of us to crash and this wouldn't do anything
useful anyway, let's simply inform the user that they must provide a
non-empty argument and exit with an error if they provide an empty one
instead.

54cf5d2da8 merge-tree: only use basic merge config
Commit 9c93ba4d0a (merge-recursive: honor diff.algorithm, 2024-07-13)
replaced init_merge_options() with init_basic_merge_config() for use in
plumbing commands and init_ui_merge_config() for use in porcelain
commands. As "git merge-tree" is a plumbing command it should call
init_basic_merge_config() rather than init_ui_merge_config(). The merge
ort machinery ignores "diff.algorithm" so the behavior is unchanged by
this commit but it future proofs us against any future changes to
init_ui_merge_config().

1b0e5f4499 merge-tree: remove redundant code
real_merge() only ever returns "0" or "1" as it dies if the merge status
is less than zero. Therefore the check for "result < 0" is redundant and
the result variable is not needed. The return value of real_merge() is
ignored because exit status of "git merge-tree --stdin" is "0" for both
successful and conflicted merges (the status of each merge is written to
stdout). The return type of real_merge() is not changed as it is used
for the program's exit status when "--stdin" is not given.

344a107b55 merge-tree --stdin: flush stdout to avoid deadlock
If a process tries to read the output from "git merge-tree --stdin"
before it closes merge-tree's stdin then it deadlocks. This happens
because merge-tree does not flush its output before trying to read
another line of input and means that it is not possible to cherry-pick a
sequence of commits using "git merge-tree --stdin". Fix this by calling
maybe_flush_or_die() before trying to read the next line of
input. Flushing the output after each merge does not seem to affect the
performance, any difference is lost in the noise even after increasing
the number of runs.

5309c1e9fb Makefile: set default goals in makefiles
Explicitly set the default goal at the very top of various makefiles.
This is already present in some makefiles, but not all of them.

In particular, this corrects a regression introduced in a38edab7c8
(Makefile: generate doc versions via GIT-VERSION-GEN, 2024-12-06).  That
commit added some config files as build targets for the Documentation
directory, and put the target configuration in a sensible place.
Unfortunately, that sensible place was above any other build target
definitions, meaning the default goal changed to being those
configuration files only, rather than the HTML and man page
documentation.
