Subject: [PATCH v2 07/20] merge-ort: avoid repeating fill_tree_descriptor() on the same tree

From: Elijah Newren <[email-masked]>
Date: Mon, 2 Nov 2020 12:43:31 -0800

Three-way merges, by their nature, are going to often have two or more
trees match at a given subdirectory.  We can avoid calling
fill_tree_descriptor() on the same tree by checking when these trees
match.  Noting when various oids match will also be useful in other
calculations and optimizations as well.
