The most important difference is that in Java7 we have symbolic links
and for most operations in the work tree we want to operate on the link
itself rather than the link target, which the old File methods generally
do.

We also add support for the hidden attribute, which only makes sense
on Windows and exists, just since there are claims that Files.exists
is faster the File.exists.

A new bundle is only activated when run with a Java7 execution
environment. It is implemented as a fragment.

Tycho currently has no way to conditionally include optional features
based on the java version used to run the build, this means with this
change the jgit packaging build always needs to be run using java 7.

avoiding redundant code

Bug: 397336
Change-Id: I60e1baa52e00c5ec3915b859bfc6a4572611cc89

A few classes such as Constanrs are marked with @SuppressWarnings, as are
toString() methods with many liternal, but otherwise $NLS-n$ is used for
string containing text that should not be translated. A few literals may
fall into the gray zone, but mostly I've tried to only tag the obvious
ones.

If JGit got a cygwin path it would fail to resolve directories
relative to it.

Also add system property to debug problems with the FS utilities.
Enable debug using -Djgit.fs.debug=1

Furthermore use -Djgit.gitprefix=<path> to set the git prefix
manually.

This permits an application to create its own copy of FS.DETECTED
before manually setting the userHome or gitPrefix.

This permits callers to modify the meaning of gitPrefix, which
may be useful if their application allows the user to select
the location where C Git is installed.

This allows callers to perform the logic that constructed the
current FS.DETECTED value.

readPipe() may consume rather much time, so
gitPrefix should be cached. If the git executable changes,
users should run FS.detect() again to get a new
instance of FS_Win32.

JGit did not use sh -c to run the receive-pack or upload-pack programs
locally, which caused errors if these strings contained spaces and
needed the local shell to evaluate them.

Win32 support using cmd.exe /c is completely untested, but seems like
it should work based on the limited information I could get through
Google search results.

Java's user.home is not the same as $HOME so EGit did see the
same global configuration as C Git does.

These settings are stored in <prefix>/etc/gitconfig. The C Git
binary is installed in <prefix>/bin, so we look for the C Git
executable to find this location, first by looking at the PATH
environment variable and then by attemting to launch bash as
a login shell to find out.

GitIndex.write fails if another thread concurrently reads
the index file. The problem is fixed by retrying the rename
operation if it fails.

As discussed on the egit-dev mailing list, we prefer not to have
trailing whitespace in our source code.  Correct all currently
offending lines by trimming them.

Per CQ 3448 this is the initial contribution of the JGit project
to eclipse.org.  It is derived from the historical JGit repository
at commit 3a2dd9921c.
