    Make 'traverse_trees()' traverse conflicting DF entries in parallel · 91e4f036
    Linus Torvalds authored and Junio C Hamano's avatar Junio C Hamano committed
    
    
    This makes the traverse_trees() entry comparator routine use the more
    relaxed form of name comparison that considers files and directories
    with the same name identical.
    
    We pass in a separate mask for just the directory entries, so that the
    callback routine can decide (if it wants to) to only handle one or the
    other type, but generally most (all?) users are expected to really want
    to see the case of a name 'foo' showing up in one tree as a file and in
    another as a directory at the same time.
    
    In particular, moving 'unpack_trees()' over to use this tree traversal
    mechanism requires this.
