[PATCH 3/4] read-tree -m A B: prime cache-tree from the switched-to tree

From: Junio C Hamano <hidden>
Date: 2016-06-15 22:46:37
Subsystem: the rest · Maintainer: Linus Torvalds

When switching to a new branch with "read-tree -m A B", the resulting
index must match tree B and we can prime the cache tree with it.
