On Windows, `unsigned long` and `long` are 32 bits even on 64-bit builds. The MSVC compatibility header has shimmed `ftruncate()` with #define ftruncate _chsize ever since `compat/msvc-posix.h` was introduced. `_chsize()` takes a 32-bit `long` for the new length, which silently truncates files (and the requested size) to 2 GiB. That is enough to make t7508 test 126 "git add fails gracefully with 4 GiB and 8 GiB files" fail under MSVC: `test-tool truncate` creates a sparse 4 GiB or 8 GiB file via the shimmed `ftruncate()`, and the test never gets off the ground. `_chsize_s()` is the modern replacement, accepts a 64-bit `__int64` length, and is the only sensible target on Windows. The catch is that it does not follow the POSIX `-1` + `errno` convention: it returns `0` on success and an errno value (a small positive integer) on failure. A plain `#define ftruncate _chsize_s` would therefore silently break callers that test the return value as `< 0` or against `-1`, of which there are several: `http.c`, `parallel-checkout.c`, and `t/helper/test-truncate.c` among them. Introduce a `static inline` wrapper that calls `_chsize_s()`, copies its errno return into `errno`, and translates the result to the familiar `-1` / `0` convention, then point `ftruncate` at the wrapper. Place the wrapper after `#include "mingw-posix.h"` so the `off_t` parameter resolves to the already-widened `off64_t` rather than the 32-bit `_off_t` from `compat/vcbuild/include/unistd.h`. MinGW is unaffected: its `ftruncate()` already takes `off_t` and routes through `ftruncate64()` when `_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64`, which is the default in our build.

`patch_delta()` takes the source and delta sizes by value and writes back the reconstructed target size through an `unsigned long *`. That datatype cannot represent a value that exceeds 4 GiB on systems where `unsigned long` is 32-bit (notably 64-bit Windows builds), though, even though the delta encoding itself, the on-disk layout, and the in-memory buffers happily carry such sizes. A `size_t` companion to `get_delta_hdr_size()`, `get_delta_hdr_size_sz()`, was introduced in 17fa077 (delta, packfile: use size_t for delta header sizes, 2026-05-08) precisely so that `patch_delta()` could be widened without changing the on-the-wire decoding helper's signature. Widen `patch_delta()`'s three size parameters to `size_t` and switch its internal use of `get_delta_hdr_size()` to the `_sz` variant. Then propagate the wider type through the callers.

`write_reuse_object()` learned to track its packed-object size as `size_t` in 606c192 (odb, packfile: use size_t for streaming object sizes, 2026-05-08), but the comparison sink it feeds, `check_pack_inflate()`, still takes the expected decompressed size as `unsigned long`. The call site bridges the mismatch with `cast_size_t_to_ulong()`, which on Windows turns a >4 GiB object into an immediate die(). That function only uses `expect` once: as the right-hand side of a `stream.total_out == expect` equality test against zlib's counter. zlib's own `total_out` counter is `uLong` and is therefore still 32-bit-bound on Windows. Widening `expect` to `size_t` cannot fix that, but it is a strict improvement nonetheless: instead of dying outright, an oversized object now simply makes the equality fail and lets `write_reuse_object()` fall back to `write_no_reuse_object()`, which decompresses and re-deflates the content (and which the larger pack-objects widening series targets separately). Drop the `cast_size_t_to_ulong()` shim at the call site now that the receiving parameter speaks the same type as `entry_size`.

The topic `js/objects-larger-than-4gb-on-windows` widened the streaming, index-pack and unpack-objects paths to `size_t` but deliberately stopped at the in-memory `unpack_entry()` cascade, which still hands back the unpacked size through `unsigned long *`. On Windows that boundary truncates above 4 GiB because that data type is only 32 bits wide on that platform. Widen the code path. Except `packed_object_info_with_index_pos()`: It cannot yet pass `oi->sizep` directly because the field is still `unsigned long *`; bridge it with a `size_t` temporary that narrows back, and let a later commit drop the bridge once the field is wide too. `gfi_unpack_entry()` keeps its narrow signature because fast-import tracks sizes through `unsigned long` everywhere it crosses subsystem boundaries, keeping its signature allows the scope of this commit to be somewhat reasonable, still.

`pack-objects` stores per-entry object sizes in either the 31-bit `size_` member of the `struct object_entry` or, when the value does not fit, the `pack->delta_size[]` spill array. The accessors (`oe_size`, `oe_delta_size`, `oe_get_size_slow`, `oe_size_*_than`) and the setters (`oe_set_size`, `oe_set_delta_size`) used `unsigned long` for the spill type, which on Windows means the spill silently caps at 4 GiB per entry. That is what made `upload-pack` die with "object too large to read on this platform" when serving the >4 GiB blob in `t5608` tests 5 and 6 when run with `GIT_TEST_CLONE_2GB`. Widen them all to `size_t` (including `pack->delta_size`) and drop the three `cast_size_t_to_ulong()` calls in `check_object()` that guarded `in_pack_size`. The two `SET_SIZE(entry, canonical_size)` calls in the same function stay cast-free as before, since `canonical_size` is still `unsigned long` until a later commit widens `object_info::sizep`.

When I started the transition from `unsigned long` to `size_t`, in the interest of keeping the patches reviewable, I introduced these calls to prevent data type narrowing from silently failing to handle large object sizes. I also introduced `*_sz()` variants that would allow most of the callers to keep using that `unsigned long` that the 90s kindly asked to be returned. After the preceding commits, the only places that called the narrow wrappers either no longer exist or already use the `_sz` form internally, so the wrappers just narrow values back through `cast_size_t_to_ulong()` for no reason. Drop them and rename the `_sz` variants back to the natural names.

When `js/objects-larger-than-4gb-on-windows` widened the streaming, index-pack and unpack-objects code paths, in the interest of keeping the patches somewhat reasonably-sized, it left the public ODB API still typed in `unsigned long`. In particular `struct object_info::sizep` and the four wrappers built on top of it (`odb_read_object`, `odb_read_object_peeled`, `odb_read_object_info`, `odb_pretend_object`) still return the unpacked size through `unsigned long *`, so on Windows `cat-file -s` and the `git add` / `git status` paths for a >4 GiB blob silently cap at 4 GiB. Widen the field and the four wrappers. The previous commits already widened the `unpack_entry()` cascade and pack-objects' in-core size accessors, so most of the cascade arrives here with no further work: the temporary shims in `packed_object_info_with_index_pos()` and in `unpack_entry()`'s delta-base recovery path go away, the two `SET_SIZE(entry, cast_size_t_to_ulong(canonical_size))` calls in `check_object()` and the matching one in `drop_reused_delta()` collapse to plain `SET_SIZE`, and `oe_get_size_slow()`'s tail `cast_size_t_to_ulong()` is gone too. What remains narrow are the boundaries this series does not intend to touch: the diff, blame, textconv and fast-import machinery. Even so, this patch is unfortunately quite large.

The *.pl pattern currently sets eof=lf, which is not a built-in attribute used for line-ending normalization. Use eol=lf instead, matching the neighboring *.perl and *.pm rules, so Perl scripts are checked out with LF line endings.
