I see that you already queued 721e727, which has the change you
described plus moving the S_ISGITLINK test into reuse_worktree_file.
The change looks good to me. However, two nits about the comments:
diff.c now says
/*
* Given a name and sha1 pair, if the index tells us the file in
* the work tree has that object contents, return true, so that
* prepare_temp_file() does not have to inflate and extract.
*/
static int reuse_worktree_file(const struct diff_filespec *spec, int
want_file)
{
const struct cache_entry *ce;
struct stat st;
int pos, len;
const char *name = spec->path;
const unsigned char *sha1 = spec->sha1;
/* reading the directory will not give us "Submodule commit XYZ" */
if (S_ISGITLINK(spec->mode))
return 0;
But the function comment is no longer accurate, and the comment about
the S_ISGITLINK exit is rather obscure if one doesn't know what the
callers want. So how about this on top?
