I just noticed that there is a non-empty /mingw64/ directory in HEAD; This is undesirable, but instead of simply deleting it, I'd like to use the opportunity to figure out how it came into being (so that it won't just simply come back after deleting it).

It looks like those slipped through the cracks of 5f8de1d (and the mingw32 equivalent). Some of those reasons seem obvious (`git extra used to not have a package prefix, ruby gems), but some are less obvious.

Aha! Yes, pacman -R would have missed those because:
I specifically retained some obsolete OpenSSL/libidn2 files (to allow an orderly upgrade to a newer versions that produce DLLs with different names, which would have broken git fetch and curl in the CI builds). However, I thought I had dropped these files in git-for-windows/build-extra@27f8403. I guess I should have checked... they're still there, even in git-sdk-64 and git-sdk-32...
The way I had installed asciidoctor with the extensions that Git still required back then was really hacky: calling gem install in the pre_install function, and of course I had not thought of adding a corresponding post_remove function 🤦
Since we no longer install those obsolete packages, I'm confident that they wouldn't come back just like that.
