Here are some unrelated patches that I had accumulated over the past weeks that improve the git experience on Windows.

The first three are maint-worthy and have been cooked long enough. IMO it is safe to put them on maint directly.

Erik Faye-Lund (1):
  mingw: use _commit to implement fsync
Ian McLean (1):
  Fix "Out of memory? mmap failed" for files larger than 4GB on Windows
Johannes Sixt (1):
  Recent MinGW has a C99 implementation of snprintf functions
René Scharfe (1):
  Fix checkout of large files to network shares on Windows XP
bert Dvornik (1):
  start_command: close cmd->err descriptor when fork/spawn fails
