From 8a96b9d0a7c85a25e3550a14e5403eb95aca6d37 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Derrick Stolee Date: Wed, 8 Sep 2021 01:42:29 +0000 Subject: sparse-index: use WRITE_TREE_MISSING_OK When updating the cache tree in convert_to_sparse(), the WRITE_TREE_MISSING_OK flag indicates that trees might be computed that do not already exist within the object database. This happens in cases such as 'git add' creating new trees that it wants to store in anticipation of a following 'git commit'. If this flag is not specified, then it might trigger a promisor fetch or a failure due to the object not existing locally. Use WRITE_TREE_MISSING_OK during convert_to_sparse() to avoid these possible reasons for the cache_tree_update() to fail.
