The present text is a try to enhance description accuracy. It is a
merge of the rewritten text made by native english speaker Chris Johnsen
and further changes of Junio. It came from the last thread messages of
--orphan patch.

* maint:
Fix checkout of large files to network shares on Windows XP
start_command: close cmd->err descriptor when fork/spawn fails
Fix "Out of memory? mmap failed" for files larger than 4GB on Windows
Bigger writes to network drives on Windows XP fail. Cap them at 31MB to
allow them to succeed. Callers need to be prepared for write() calls
that do less work than requested anyway.
On local drives, write() calls are translated to WriteFile() calls with
a cap of 64KB on Windows XP and 256KB on Vista. Thus a cap of 31MB won't
affect the number of WriteFile() calls which do the actual work. There's
still room for some other version of Windows to use a chunk size of 1MB
without increasing the number of system calls.

Fix the problem where the cmd->err passed into start_command wasn't
being properly closed when certain types of errors occurr. (Compare
the affected code with the clean shutdown code later in the function.)
On Windows, this problem would be triggered if mingw_spawnvpe()
failed, which would happen if the command to be executed was malformed
(e.g. a text file that didn't start with a #! line). If cmd->err was
a pipe, the failure to close it could result in a hang while the other
side was waiting (forever) for either input or pipe close, e.g. while
trying to shove the output into the side band. On msysGit, this
problem was causing a hang in t5516-fetch-push.
[J6t: With a slight adjustment of the test case, the hang is also
observed on Linux.]

The git_mmap implementation was broken for file sizes that wouldn't fit
into a size_t (32 bits). This was caused by intermediate variables that
were only 32 bits wide when they should be 64 bits.

According to the default hooks/post-receive file, the hook is called
with three arguments on stdin:
<oldrev> <newrev> <refname>
In command-line mode, the arguments come in a different order, because
the email hook instead calls:
generate_email $2 $3 $1
Add a comment to explain why, based on comments from the mailing list
and the commit message to v1.5.1~9. Thanks to Andy for the
explanation.

The check whether size is zero was done after if size <= SMALL_FILE_SIZE,
as result, zero size case was never triggered. Instead zero length file
was treated as any other small file. This did not caused any problem, but
if we have a special case for size equal to zero, it is better to make it
work and avoid redundant malloc().

same rename detection options that git-diff and git-diff-tree (used
by 'commitdiff', 'blobdiff', etc.) use.

Restrict the tags used to generate the version string to those that
begin with "v", since git's tags for git-core (ie. excluding git-gui)
are all of the form "vX.Y...".
This is to avoid using private tags by the user in a clone of the git
code repository, which may break certain machinery (eg. Makefile, gitk).
