These repeat pretty much the same thing, which is an indication that
the macro names are chosen well not to require extraneous comments
like these, no?

As you do not say "use the provided stat info to mark the cache
entry up-to-date" in the add_to_index(), I am not sure if mentioning
"stat the file then" has much value.  Besides, you are supposed to
lstat(2) the file, not "stat", no?

I'd cover these two under the same heading and comment if I were
doing this.

        These two are used to add the contents of the file at path
        to the index, marking the working tree up-to-date by storing
        the cached stat info in the resulting cache entry.  A caller
        that has already run lstat(2) on the path can call
        add_to_index(), and all others can call add_file_to_index();
        the latter will do necessary lstat(2) internally before
        calling the former.

or something along that line.
