And will it leave other, non-important graph files behind?  Looking at
the code it indeed does.  What is the use case for keeping the
non-important graph files?

Wouldn't a simple 'git commit-graph --write --update-head' regenerate
it on it's own, without cleaning first?  It appears, after running a
few tests, that a corrupt graph file can be recreated without
cleaning, which is great.  However, if graph-head is corrupt, then the
command errors out with 'failed to read graph-head'.  I don't
understand the rationale behind this, it would be overwritten anyway,
and its content is not necessary for recreating the graph.  And
indeed, after commenting out that get_graph_head_hash() call in
cmd_commit_graph() it doesn't want to read my corrupted graph-head
file, and recreates both the graph and graph-head files just fine.

I think the requirement for explicitly cleaning a corrupt graph-head
before re-writing it is just unnecessary complication.

On second thought, what's the point of '--write' without
'--update-head', when consumers (thinking 'log --topo-order...) will
need the graph-head anyway?  I think '--write' should create a
graph-head without requiring an additional option.

Hmph, another second thought: the word 'head' has a rather specific
meaning in Git, although it's usually capitalized.  Using this word in
options and filenames may lead to confusion, especially the option
'--update-head'.

All these "cannot be combined with --this and --that" remarks make
subcommands more and more appealing.

strbuf_addstr(&head_path, "/graph-head")

Although, considering that this is the third place assembling this
path, maybe a helper function would be worth it.

This should have been done in the previous patch.
