I don't know. There are few independent patches like this. Most of
them will need startup_info struct, introduced in 01/43. I splitted
the series in two parts, with hope that the first (simpler) part could
graduate early. But as you pointed out, even the first part introduced
a regression.

Anyway if you want to pick them out, candidates are:
 - 19-20/43: calculate prefix anyway and remove the hack in index-pack
 - 22-23/43: moving enter_repo(). This makes enter_repo() more
consistent with setup_git_dir*, no real gain.
 - 24/43: the bug only exposes when set_git_dir() is used extensively
in setup_git_dir*, so this patch alone seems useless.

So that's 7 patches shorter if all of them are sent independently.
