Yes, that's what I meant by "doesn't correspond to any tree".

BTW, why don't we keep the tree information directly in the Index
object? Since this object is modified only via its own interface, it
can do all the checks and avoid the managing of temp_index_tree in the
Transaction object.

Yes. But it may be even better to do this in Index.
Index.apply_treediff() would set the tree to None and read_tree or
write_tree would set it to the corresponding tree.

They would be reported as empty anyway and in general you don't submit
empty patches for upstream merging.
