[PATCH v4 0/5] Improving performance of git clean

["Erik Elfström" <erik.elfstrom@gmail.com>]

v3 of the patch can be found here:
http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.version-control.git/267422

Changes in v4:
* changed some tests to use more meaningful dir names.
* fixed performance test by doing "git clean -n" to avoid
  timing setup code. Increased test size to 100000 directories
  (~0.5s runtime).
* changed interface of read_gitfile_gently to be able to
  return error code.
* fixed a compiler warning in read_gitfile_gently ("warning:
  ‘dir’ may be used uninitialized in this function").
* added sanity check of git file size in read_gitfile_gently
* updated commit message in [5/5] to more clearly motivate
  remaining behavioral changes of git clean.

Thanks to Junio C Hamano and Jeff King for comments and help on v3.
