From: Jeff Hostetler <jeffhost@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>
Teach traverse_trees_recursive() to not do redundant ODB
lookups when both directories refer to the same OID.
In operations such as read-tree and checkout, there will
likely be many peer directories that have the same OID when
the differences between the commits are relatively small.
In these cases we can avoid hitting the ODB multiple times
for the same OID.
This patch handles n=2 and n=3 cases and simply copies the
data rather than repeating the fill_tree_descriptor().
================
On the Windows repo (500K trees, 3.1M files, 450MB index),
this reduced the overall time by 0.75 seconds when cycling
between 2 commits with a single file difference.
(avg) before: 22.699
(avg) after: 21.955
===============
================
On Linux using p0006-read-tree-checkout.sh with linux.git:
Test HEAD^ HEAD
