Yeah, I missed that.  It says "we were asked to update one
cache_tree that corresponds to this subdirectory, found that
hashes everything below has been rolled up and still valid, and we
already have the right tree object in the object store".

It can simply become freshen(), which is "do we have it in the
object store?" with a side effect of touching iff the answer is
"yes".
