s/make/makes/

By the way if you have already sent some of the patches in this series
(and if they haven't changed much since when you sent them), it's a
good idea to use V2 or V3, V4, etc, so we can easily refer to each of
the versions you sent. (See the `-v` option of `git format-patch`.)

Maybe:

Arnfjörð Bjarmason/

or:

s/with the suggest of Ævar Arnfjörð Bjarmason/according to Ævar
Arnfjörð Bjarmason's suggestion/

It's a bit strange that the above 2 don't have [GSOC] while the others
below have it.

Maybe you could add the new perf test earlier in the series so that we
could see how performance changes when ref-filter logic is reused in
cat-file earlier in the series.
