Re: [GSoC][PATCH 2/2] clone: use dir-iterator to avoid explicit dir traversal

Hi there! I'm happy to see this series has gotten renewed attention.

The series was fine per se, and it even got through to the pu branch.
But then it got ejected since it conflicted non-trivially with another
patch series that was added along the way (see
https://lwn.net/Articles/724166/). At that point I did not keep
pushing it forward.

I'd be happy to help anyone willing to make some progress on this! (Or
even ultimately solve the conflict myself, if it serves a greater goal
than just being a GSoC microproject.)

Best,
-- Daniel.
