Hmm, I was just about to suggest that there was some negative interplay
between the 'dt/cache-tree-repair' and 'nd/split-index' branches as well.

The pu branch fails the testsuite for me. In particular, t0090-cache-tree.sh
fails like so:

    $ ./t0090-cache-tree.sh -i -v
    ...
    ok 9 - second commit has cache-tree

    expecting success: 
    	cat <<-\EOT >foo.c &&
    	int foo()
    	{
    		return 42;
    	}

    		return 42;

Note that I haven't even looked at the test failure itself yet.

However, I noticed that commit 002ccda ("cache-tree: write updated
cache-tree after commit", 11-07-2014) passes that test just fine, but
that the merge commit 7608c87e fails. Looking at the details of the
merge resolution, made me think of Duy's split index work.

I probably won't look at this further tonight, so this is just a
heads-up on a possible problem.
