"already happens to have been" is quite a mouthful, and is not quite
truthful, as we do not foresee ever wanting to change that (because
of that stat(2) issue you mentioned). It might be better to declare
that do_write_index() closes the lockfile after successfully writing
the data out to it. I dunno if that reasoning is strong enough to
remove this (extra) close, though.
When any of the ce_write() calls in do_write_index() fails, the
function returns -1 without hitting the close/stat (obviously).
Somebody very high in the callchain (e.g. write_locked_index())
would clean it up by calling rollback_lock_file() eventually, so
that would not be a problem ;-)
