Well, then perhaps I was wrong to submit it independent of my directory rename series. As noted in the (very lengthy) extended commit message explanation, the assumption the previous code made just happened to work until a few extra tweaks (from directory renames) caused us to want to remove a file from the working copy that was found at stage 0 in the index. Thus, the only testcase we can really use for this commit, is testcase 7b of the new t6043 added by that other patch series, and it's only valid with the code from that other series. When I submitted this patch, I was thinking about just including this fix with the next reroll of my rename-directory-detection series but it partially felt like an independent fix...but maybe I chose wrong. Would you prefer I include it in my next en/rename-directory-detection reroll?
