Re: [PATCH 3/3] cache-tree: Write index with updated cache-tree after commit

> During the commit process, the cache-tree is updated. We need to write
> this updated cache-tree so that it's ready for subsequent commands.
>
> Add test code which demonstrates that git commit now writes the cache
> tree.  Also demonstrate that  cache-tree invalidation is correct.
