The recent change of mingw_rename() to use POSIX semantics had quite a bit of fall-out, breaking in pre-Windows 11 setups that use ReFS, and in a different way on Windows Server 2016. While at it, this patch series also upstreams two related patches that matured in Git for Windows for long enough already.
Thanks. What a great timing, just before the -rc0 preview release ;-) Will apply directly to 'master'.
