Re: [PATCH 3/3] Add shortcut in refresh_cache_ent() for marked entries.

Marius Storm-Olsen said the following on 30.05.2008 14:38:

When a cache entry has been marked as CE_VALID, the user has
promised us that any change in the work tree does not matter.
Just mark the entry as up-to-date, and continue.

Done-by: Junio C Hamano [off-list ref]
Signed-off-by: Marius Storm-Olsen <redacted>

This patch actually cuts the commit/status time in half for me, on my 
Windows machine, when the whole work tree is validated, and 
core.ignoreStat == true.
