The name-hash cache is probably important, but it would be nice to have a variable or flag we can use to disable the name-cache generation and thus permit Git to create JGit style v1 indexes, and also use JGit v1 indexes if the name-cache is not available.
Yes, we'll reroll the patches with name-hash cache writing disabled by default. I still think it'd be nice for JGit to be able to ignore the flag in the cases where it's there.
