Will apply. Well, index version 1 is not gone. It's only the version used by default that will change, which can be overriden with a config variable. And even if that wasn't done, then any old Git version can just blow away the new index and recreate it. So it is not like if you actually needed a recent version of Git to convert the repo back to the old format. And all this will be effective in 1.5.5 which is still a few months ahead.
