I spoke too soon; it breaks the test I wrote to cover this case, for a
reason that gives me a headache.
When we hit the conditional
>>> - if (!one->sha1_valid ||
>>> - reuse_worktree_file(name, one->sha1, 1)) {
>>> + if (!S_ISGITLINK(one->mode) &&
>>> + (!one->sha1_valid ||
>>> + reuse_worktree_file(name, one->sha1, 1))) {
sha1_valid=0 for the submodule on the worktree side of the diff. The
reason is that we start out with sha1_valid=0 and sha1=000..000 for the
worktree side of all dirty entries, which makes sense at that point. We
later set the sha1 by looking inside the submodule in
diff_fill_sha1_info(), but we never set sha1_valid. So the above
conditional will now trigger on the !one->sha1_valid arm, completely
defeating the change to reuse_worktree_file().
We can fix it like below, but it feels a bit wrong to me. Are
submodules the only case where it makes sense to set sha1_valid when we
fill the sha1?
