[PATCH 0/6] Support hashing objects larger than 4GB on Windows

Philip Oakley has contributed these patches ~4.5 years ago, and they have been carried in Git for Windows ever since.

Now that there are already other patch series flying around that try to address various aspects about >4GB objects (which aren't handled well by Git until it stops forcing unsigned long to do size_t's job), it seems a good time to upstream these patches, too, at long last.

Philip Oakley (6):
  hash-object: demonstrate a >4GB/LLP64 problem
  object-file.c: use size_t for header lengths
  hash algorithms: use size_t for section lengths
  hash-object --stdin: verify that it works with >4GB/LLP64
  hash-object: add another >4GB/LLP64 test case
  hash-object: add a >4GB/LLP64 test case using filtered input
