[PATCH 0/5] Speeding up "git status" and "git diff --cached"

[Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>]

Here is a refined version of an earlier patch series to use cache-tree
information to optimize comparison between the index with an existing
commit.

Recently there was a discussion to auto-commit any change to the index
that are going to be discarded to some kind of "trash" branch; I am not
personally interested in writing a patch to do so, but this will also help
such a feature by making it cheaper to see if there are differences worth
saving.

Junio C Hamano (5):
  write-tree --ignore-cache-tree
  cache-tree.c::cache_tree_find(): simplify inernal API
  t4007: modernize the style
  Optimize "diff-index --cached" using cache-tree
  Avoid "diff-index --cached" optimization under --find-copies-harder
