[PATCH v2 0/9] About the trailing slashes

["Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy" <pclouds@gmail.com>]

So this is the reroll that makes

  git diff HEAD submodule
  git diff HEAD submodule/

and

  git diff HEAD HEAD^ submodule
  git diff HEAD HEAD^ submodule/

behave the same way. The main patches are 04/09 and 09/09. The rest is
just refactoring and cleaning up.

While looking at this, I found a funny behavior of fill_directory.

  $ git init
  $ mkdir b
  $ >b/c
  $ >b/d
  $ git status b
  Untracked files:
          b/
  $ git status b/
  Untracked files:
          b/c b/d

Notice how the trailing slash produces different untracked listing.
This is because of common_prefix_len(). In the "b" case,
common_prefix_len() returns empty prefix, so read_directory reads top
directory, traverses through, reaches "b" and eventually calls
treat_directory() on it, which results in "b/" in the output.

In the "b/" case, common_prefix_len() found the prefix "b", so
read_directory() starts at "b" instead of b's parent.
treat_directory() is never called on "b" itself, which results in
"b/c" and "b/d".

I'm tempted to make it consistent, favoring "b/" output. But that
involves extra lstat, or reordering the complex read_directory() code.
This is probably very unusual case to pay attention to anyway.

Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy (9):
  Convert some match_pathspec_depth() to ce_path_match()
  Convert some match_pathspec_depth() to dir_path_match()
  Rename match_pathspec_depth() to match_pathspec()
  dir.c: prepare match_pathspec_item for taking more flags
  match_pathspec: match pathspec "foo/" against directory "foo"
  Pass directory indicator to match_pathspec_item()
  clean: replace match_pathspec() with dir_path_match()
  clean: use cache_name_is_other()
  tree-walk.c: ignore trailing slash on submodule in
    tree_entry_interesting()
