Thanks. Locally, with draft patches with generalized tree-walker, for
`git log --raw --no-abbrev --no-renames` I was able to get to as fast as
with old two-tree walker for navy.git and 1% faster for linux.git and
all tests pass.
Only, before I clean things up, I'd like to ask - would the following
patch be accepted

?
The reason I ask is because it is more handy to work with tree_desc
structures, compared to splitting it to sha1/path/mode/pathlen, and
if canon_mode() is done only once, clients don't have to pay the
performance price of canon_mode on each tree_desc "extract".
I understand there is fsck, which on invalid tree entry prints the mode,
but maybe somehow fsck should be special, and common interface be tuned
to usual clients?
Thanks,
Kirill
