This patch mini-series supports Git for Windows' default strategy to
determine the current user's home directory by looking at the
environment variable HOME, falling back to HOMEDRIVE and HOMEPATH, and
if these variables are also unset, to USERPROFILE.
This strategy is a quick method to determine

This patch hails from Git for Windows (where the Cygwin runtime is used
in the form of a slightly modified MSYS2 runtime), where it is a
well-established technique to let the `$HOME` variable define where the
current user's home directory is, falling back to `$HOMEDRIVE$HOMEPATH`
and
We should not blindly set the home directory of the SYSTEM account (or
of Microsoft accounts) to /home/SYSTEM, especially not when that value
disagrees with what is configured via the `db_home` line in the
`/etc/nsswitch.conf` file.

In particular when we cannot figure out a uid for the current user, we
should still respect the `db_home: env` setting. Such a situation occurs
for example when the domain returned by `LookupAccountSid()` is not our
machine name and at the same time our machine is no domain member: In
that case,

variable", then we add "env" to both lists? That doesn't make much sense
to me. Surely it's just a "predefined schema"? In any
