In commit a390a846 (cmake: move defines into "features.h" header, 2017-07-01), we have introduced a new "features.h" header. This file is being generated by the CMake build system based on how the libgit2 build has been configured, replacing the preexisting method of simply setting the defines inside of the CMake build system. This was done to help splitting up the build instructions into multiple separate subdirectories. An overlooked shortcoming of this approach is that some projects making use of libgit2 build the library with custom build systems, without making use of CMake. For those users, the introduction of the "features.h" file makes their life harder as they would have to also generate this file. Fix this issue by guarding all inclusions of the generated header file by the `LIBGIT2_NO_FEATURES_H` define. Like this, other build systems can skip the feature header and simply define all used features by specifying `-D` flags for the compiler again.

Fix negative ignore rules with patterns

Submodules with bare repo

-Werror builds for Travis
Edward Thomson committed -
While it is technically possible to look up submodules inside of a bare repository by reading the submodule configuration of a specific commit, we do not offer this functionality right now. As such, calling both `git_submodule_lookup` and `git_submodule_foreach` should error out early when these functions encounter a bare repository. While `git_submodule_lookup` already does return an error due to not being able to parse the configuration, `git_submodule_foreach` simply returns success and never invokes the callback function. Fix the issue by having both functions check whether the repository is bare and returning an error in that case.

The testcase "submodule::lookup::cached" was declared with a single underscore separating the test suide and test name, only. As the clar parser only catches tests with two underscores, it was never executed. Add in the second underscore to actually have it detected and executed.

When computing negative ignores, we throw away any rule which does not undo a previous rule to optimize. But on case insensitive file systems, we need to keep in mind that a negative ignore can also undo a previous rule with different case, which we did not yet honor while determining whether a rule undoes a previous one. So in the following example, we fail to unignore the "/Case" directory: /case !/Case Make both paths checking whether a plain- or wildcard-based rule undo a previous rule aware of case-insensitivity. This fixes the described issue.

Ignore rules allow for reverting a previously ignored rule by prefixing it with an exclamation mark. As such, a negative rule can only override previously ignored files. While computing all ignore patterns, we try to use this fact to optimize away some negative rules which do not override any previous patterns, as they won't change the outcome anyway. In some cases, though, this optimization causes us to get the actual ignores wrong for some files. This may happen whenever the pattern contains a wildcard, as we are unable to reason about whether a pattern overrides a previous pattern in a sane way. This happens for example in the case where a gitignore file contains "*.c" and "!src/*.c", where we wouldn't un-ignore files inside of the "src/" subdirectory. In this case, the first solution coming to mind may be to just strip the "src/" prefix and simply compare the basenames. While that would work here, it would stop working as soon as the basename pattern itself is different, like for example with "*x.c" and "!src/*.c. As such, we settle for the easier fix of just not optimizing away rules that contain a wildcard.

One of our goals is to have our code free of any warnings. Due to the recent switch to Ubuntu 14.04 on Travis, the last warning regarding some preprocessor-magic in the curl-headers has been fixed and as such, the goal of zero warnings is now reached for Travis CI. In order to avoid introducing new warnings via pull requests, we can now enable building with `-Werror` and turn compiler warnings into errors instead, causing the CI jobs to fail. This build does so by passing the newly introdcued `-DENABLE_WERROR` flag to CMake for all Travis jobs.
Patrick Steinhardt committed -
Add a simple switch to enable building with "-Werror=<warning>" instead of "-W<warning". Due to the encapsulated `ENABLE_WARNINGS` macro, this is as simple as adding a new variable "ENABLE_WERROR`, which can be passed on the command line via `-DENABLE_WERROR=ON`. The variable defaults to NO to not bother developers in their day to day work.
Patrick Steinhardt committed -
There are multiple sites where we enable or disable compiler warning via "-W<warning>" or "-Wno-<warning>". As we want to extend this mechanism later on to conditionally switch these over to "-Werror=<warning>", we encapsulate the logic into its their own macros `ENABLE_WARNINGS` and `DISABLE_WARNINGS`. Note that we in fact have to use a macro here. Using a function would not modify the CFLAGS inside of the callers scope, but in the function's scope only.

Split up CMakeLists.txt build instructions

As observed by Edward Thomson, the libgit2 DLL built by Windows will not end up in the top-level build directory but instead inside of the 'src/' subdirectory. While confusing at first because we are actually setting the LIBRARY_OUTPUT_DIRECTORY to the project's binary directory, the manual page of LIBRARY_OUTPUT_DIRECTORY clears this up: There are three kinds of target files that may be built: archive, library, and runtime. Executables are always treated as runtime targets. Static libraries are always treated as archive targets. Module libraries are always treated as library targets. For non-DLL platforms shared libraries are treated as library targets. For DLL platforms the DLL part of a shared library is treated as a runtime target and the corresponding import library is treated as an archive target. All Windows-based systems including Cygwin are DLL platforms. So in fact, DLLs and import libraries are not treated as libraries at all by CMake but instead as runtime and archive targets. To fix the issue, we can thus simply set the variables RUNTIME_OUTPUT_DIRECTORY and ARCHIVE_OUTPUT_DIRECTORY to the project's root binary directory.

With c26ce784 (Merge branch 'AndreyG/cmake/modernization', 2017-06-28), we have recently introduced a regression in the way we are searching for headers. We have made sure to always include our own headers first, but due to the changes in c26ce784 this is no longer guaranteed. In fact, this already leads the compiler into picking "config.h" from the "deps/regex" dependency, if it is used. Fix the issue by declaring our internal include directories up front, before any of the other search directories is added.

To fix leaking build instructions into different targets and to make the build instructions easier to handle, create a new CMakeLists.txt file containing build instructions for the libgit2 target. By now, the split is rather easy to achieve. Due to the preparatory steps, we can now simply move over all related build instructions, only needing to remove the "src/" prefix from some files.

There are quite some uses of the variables "${CMAKE_CURRENT_SOURCE_DIR}" and "${CMAKE_CURRENT_BINARY_DIR}" where they are not appropriate. Convert these sites to instead use the variables "${CMAKE_SOURCE_DIR}" and "${CMAKE_BINARY_DIR}", which instead point to the project's root directory. This will ease splitting up the library build instructions into its own subdirectory.

Previous to keeping track of libraries and linking directories via variables, we had two call sites of the `TARGET_OS_LIBRARIES` function to avoid duplicating knowledge on required operating system library dependencies. But as the libgit2_clar target now re-uses defined variables to link against these libraries, we can simply inline the function.

Later on, we will move detection of required libraries, library directories as well as include directories into a separate CMakeLists.txt file inside of the source directory. Obviously, we want to avoid duplication here regarding these parameters. To prepare for the split, put the parameters into three variables LIBGIT2_LIBS, LIBGIT2_LIBDIRS and LIBGIT2_INCLUDES, tracking the required libraries, linking directory as well as include directories. These variables can later be exported into the parent scope from inside of the source build instructions, making them readily available for the other subdirectories.

When refering to files and directories inside of the top-level "deps/" directory, we're being inconsistent in using relative or absolute paths. To enable splitting out parts of the top-level CMakeLists.txt into an own file in the "src/" directory, consistently switch over to use absolute paths to avoid errors when converting.

In our CMakeLists.txt, we have to check multiple functions in order to determine if we have to use our own or whether we can use the platform-provided one. For two of these functions, namely `regcomp_l()` and `futimens`, the defined macro is actually used inside of the header file "src/unix/posix.h". As such, these macros are not only required by the library, but also by our test suite, which is makes use of internal headers. To prepare for the CMakeLists.txt split, move these two defines inside of the "features.h" header.

In a future commit, we will split out the build instructions for our library directory and move them into a subdirectory. One of the benefits is fixing scoping issues, where e.g. defines do not leak to build targets where they do not belong to. But unfortunately, this does also pose the problem of how to propagate some defines which are required by both the library and the test suite. One way would be to create another variable keeping track of all added defines and declare it inside of the parent scope. While this is the most obvious and simplest way of going ahead, it is kind of unfortunate. The main reason to not use this is that these defines become implicit dependencies between the build targets. By simply observing a define inside of the CMakeLists.txt file, one cannot reason whether this define is only required by the current target or whether it is required by different targets, as well. Another approach would be to use an internal header file keeping track of all defines shared between targets. While configuring the library, we will set various variables and let CMake configure the file, adding or removing defines based on what has been configured. Like this, one can easily keep track of the current environment by simply inspecting the header file. Furthermore, these dependencies are becoming clear inside the CMakeLists.txt, as instead of simply adding a define, we now call e.g. `SET(GIT_THREADSAFE 1)`. Having this header file though requires us to make sure it is always included before any "#ifdef"-preprocessor checks are executed. As we have already refactored code to always include the "common.h" header file before any statement inside of a file, this becomes easy: just make sure "common.h" includes the new "features.h" header file first.

Our CMakeLists.txt is very unwieldy in its current size, spanning more than 700 lines of code. Furthermore, it has several issues regarding scoping, where for example some defines, includes, etc. from our test suite are also applied to our normal library code. To fix this, we can separate out build instructions for our tests and move them into their own CMakeLists.txt in the "tests" directory. This reduced complexity of the root CMakeLists.txt file and fixes the issues regarding leaking build context from tests into the library.

As soon as we split up our CMakeBuild.txt build instructions, we will be unable to simply link against the git2 library's precompiled header from other targets. To avoid this future breakage, create a new precompiled header for our test suite. Next to being compatible with the split, this enables us to also include additional files like the clar headers, which may help speeding up compilation of the test suite.

Currently, we're compiling our library code twice, once as part of the libgit2 library and once for the libgit2_clar executable. Since CMake 2.8.8, there exists a new library type OBJECT, which represents an intermediate target which can then subsequently be used when linking several targets against the same set of objects. Use an OBJECT library to create an internal library for linking. This new target is only used on CMake v2.8.8 or newer. As CMake 3.0 changed the way how generator expressions are evaluated when accessing properties, we need to enable CMake policy 0051 to keep `IDE_SPLIT_SOURCES` functioning.

Once upon a time, the `CLAR_RESOURCES` variable was intended to set the `CLAR_RESOURCES` define. But actually, the define uses a wrong variable name by accident, hinting that its value cannot actually be used at all, as it is empty. Searching through the code base confirms the guess that the define is not used at all. Remove both the variable and definition.
Patrick Steinhardt committed -
While we already make use of the variable `${CMAKE_THREAD_LIBS_INIT}`, it is actually undefined due to us never including the "FindThreads" module in the CMakeLists.txt. It is rather curious as to why this has never triggered any error up to now, but it does in fact result in linking errors on some Unix platforms as soon as we split up our build instructions into multiple files. Fix the issue now to avoid future breakage by including the "FindThreads" module.
