I do not think the change affects the normal codepath. The one-liner patch to git-commit.sh touches the codepath that updates the index used only to write out the partial commit, and losing the cached stat info from that index does not matter, as that index is removed immediately after writing the tree out and is never compared with working tree as far as I can tell.
