I do not know if this "fixes" the performance problem or not (I

this a "fix" yet, but at least the _change_ looks trivially
correct, and passes all the existing tests.

Interested parties may want to try it and see if it shifts the
bottleneck.

Junio,

This makes things _much_ better, however the final commit in the 
test script still shows a lot of user time:

## time git init
real    0m0.005s
user    0m0.001s
sys     0m0.004s

## time git add . 
real    0m3.501s
user    0m1.268s
sys     0m2.159s

## time git commit -q -m 'buurrrrn' -a
real    0m2.299s
user    0m1.065s
sys     0m1.317s

## time git status
real    0m1.107s
user    0m0.548s
sys     0m0.557s

## time git status
real    0m1.122s
user    0m0.545s

## time git status
real    0m1.142s
user    0m0.545s

## time git commit -q -m 'hurry' 50/500
