merge-ort: avoid recursing into directories when we don't need to
This combines the work of the last several patches, and implements the
conditions when we don't need to recurse into directories. It's perhaps
easiest to see the logic by separating the fact that a directory might
have both rename sources and rename destinations:
* rename sources: only files present in the merge base can serve as
rename sources, and only when one side deletes that file. When the
tree on one side matches the merge base, that means every file
within the subtree matches the merge base. This means that the
skip-irrelevant-rename-detection optimization from before kicks in
and we don't need any of these files as rename sources.
* rename destinations: the tree that does not match the merge base
might have newly added and hence unmatched destination files.
This is what usually prevents us from doing trivial directory
resolutions in the merge machinery. However, the fact that we have
deferred recursing into this directory until the end means we know
whether there are any unmatched relevant potential rename sources
elsewhere in this merge. If there are no unmatched such relevant
sources anywhere, then there is no need to look for unmatched
potential rename destinations to match them with.
This informs our algorithm:
* Search through relevant_sources; if we have entries, they better all
be reflected in cached_pairs or cached_irrelevant, otherwise they
represent an unmatched potential rename source (causing the
optimization to be disallowed).
* For any relevant_source represented in cached_pairs, we do need to
to make sure to get the destination for each source, meaning we need
to recurse into any ancestor directories of those destinations.
* Once we've recursed into all the rename destinations for any
relevant_sources in cached_pairs, we can then do the trivial
directory resolution for the remaining directories.
For the testcases mentioned in commit 557ac0350d ("merge-ort: begin
performance work; instrument with trace2_region_* calls", 2020-10-28),
this change improves the performance as follows:

Git is a fast, scalable, distributed revision control system with an unusually rich command set that provides both high-level operations and full access to internals.
Git is an Open Source project covered by the GNU General Public License version 2 (some parts of it are under different licenses, compatible with the GPLv2). It was originally written by Linus Torvalds with help of a group of hackers around the net.
Please read the file INSTALL for installation instructions.
Many Git online resources are accessible from https://git-scm.com/ including full documentation and Git related tools.
See Documentation/gittutorial.txt to get started, then see Documentation/giteveryday.txt for a useful minimum set of commands, and Documentation/git-<commandname>.txt for documentation of each command. If git has been correctly installed, then the tutorial can also be read with man gittutorial or git help tutorial, and the documentation of each command with man git-<commandname> or git help <commandname>.
CVS users may also want to read Documentation/gitcvs-migration.txt (man gitcvs-migration or git help cvs-migration if git is installed).
The user discussion and development of Git take place on the Git mailing list -- everyone is welcome to post bug reports, feature requests, comments and patches to git@vger.kernel.org (read Documentation/SubmittingPatches for instructions on patch submission). To subscribe to the list, send an email with just “subscribe git” in the body to majordomo@vger.kernel.org. The mailing list archives are available at https://lore.kernel.org/git/, http://marc.info/?l=git and other archival sites.
Issues which are security relevant should be disclosed privately to the Git Security mailing list git-security@googlegroups.com.
The maintainer frequently sends the “What's cooking” reports that list the current status of various development topics to the mailing list. The discussion following them give a good reference for project status, development direction and remaining tasks.
The name “git” was given by Linus Torvalds when he wrote the very first version. He described the tool as “the stupid content tracker” and the name as (depending on your mood):
