When ac49f5ca (rerere "remaining", 2011-02-16) created a new helper function check_one_conflict() out of find_conflict() function, and made the latter use the returned value from the new helper to update the loop control variable that is an index into the active_cache[], the new variable was incremented by one too many when it pointed at a path with only stage #1 entry at the very end of the cache. This "strange" return value does not have any effect on the loop control of two callers of this function, as they all notice that active_nr+2 is larger than active_nr just like active_nr+1 is, but nevertheless it puzzles the readers when they are trying to figure out what the function is trying to do. Help future readers from unnecessary confusion by dropping an unnecessary +1 from the returned value..
