The "bind" commit can express an aggregation of multiple
projects into a single commit.
In such an organization, there would be one project, root of
whose tree object is at the same level of the root of the
aggregated projects, and other projects have their toplevel in
separate subdirectories. Let's call that root level project the
"primary project", and call other ones just "subprojects".
You would first read-tree the primary project, and then graft
the subprojects under their appropriate location using read-tree
--prefix=<subdir>/ repeatedly.
To write out a tree object from such an index for a subproject,
write-tree --prefix=<subdir>/ is used.

When the extra "dryrun" parameter is true, cache_tree_update()
recomputes the invalid entry but does not actually creates
new tree object.

This teaches read-tree to fully populate valid cache-tree when
reading a tree from scratch, or reading a single tree into an
existing index, reusing only the cached stat information (i.e.
one-way merge). We have already taught update-index about cache-tree,
so "git checkout" followed by updates to a few path followed by
a "git commit" would become very efficient.

... and move the cache-tree data into it.

The cache_tree data structure is to cache tree object names that
would result from the current index file.
The idea is to have an optional file to record each tree object
name that corresponds to a directory path in the cache when we
run write_cache(), and read it back when we run read_cache().
During various index manupulations, we selectively invalidate
the parts so that the next write-tree can bypass regenerating
tree objects for unchanged parts of the directory hierarchy.
We could perhaps make the cache-tree data an optional part of
the index file, but that would involve the index format updates,
so unless we need it for performance reasons, the current plan
is to use a separate file, $GIT_DIR/index.aux to store this
information and link it with the index file with the checksum
that is already used for index file integrity check.
