core.fsync: new option to harden the index
This commit introduces the new ability for the user to harden the index. In the event of a system crash, the index must be durable for the user to actually find a file that has been added to the repo and then deleted from the working tree. We use the presence of the COMMIT_LOCK flag and absence of the alternate_index_output as a proxy for determining whether we're updating the persistent index of the repo or some temporary index. We don't sync these temporary indexes. Signed-off-by: Neeraj Singh <neerajsi@microsoft.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
