I'd like to understand why it is necessary, especially beause you know you only call this function in the o->clone codepath, so everything ought to be fresh. I agree that the check you have above is sufficient on inum capable systems. I also suspect that Windows folks, if they really wish to report which other path(s) are colliding with ce, would want to replace this whole loop with a platform specific helper function, not just the condition in the above "if" statement [*1*], so what we see here should be sufficient for now. Side note #1. It is sufficient for inum capable systems to look at 'dup' and 'st' to cheaply identify collision, but it may be more efficient for other systems to look at ce and the previous entries of the index, which allows them to use platform specific API that knows case-folding and other pathname munging specifics. Going that way lets them minimally emulate 'struct stat', which may be expensive to fill. > + (*count)++; And then we increment (*count)++ for this _other_ one that collided with ce. > + break; And we leave the loop. There may be somebody else that collided when 'dup' was checked out, making this triple collision, but in such a case, we won't be coming this far in this loop (i.e. we would have continued on this 'dup' as it is marked as CE_MATCHED), so there is no reason to continue looking for further collision with 'ce' here. So nr_duplicates kept track by these (*count)++ will indicate number of paths involved in any collision correctly, I think.

I am wondering if state.clone bit is sufficient to protect codepaths that needs to spend cycles to keep track of that number, in which case we can do without local variable nr_duplicates here, and the set-up code in the previous hunk not to store the pointer to it in state.nr_duplicates (instead, that field itself can become an int). > + warning(_("the following paths have collided and only one from the same\n" > + "colliding group is in the working tree:\n")); As we are not grouping (and do not particularly see the need to group), perhaps we can do without mentioning group in the warning? e.g. some of the following may have been checked out incorrectly due to limitation of the filesystem like case insensitivity. > + for (i = 0; i < index->cache_nr; i++) { > + struct cache_entry *ce = index->cache[i]; > + > + if (!(ce->ce_flags & CE_MATCHED)) > + continue; > + fprintf(stderr, " '%s'\n", ce->name); > + ce->ce_flags &= ~CE_MATCHED; > + } > + }
