Hmm, this feels wrong, because we _do_ want to recurse down and follow
the pathspec to see if there are real changes.

We should be comparing an empty tree and d0/d0/d0/d0 (or however deep
your pathspec goes). We should be able to see immediately that the entry
is not present between the two and not bother descending. After all,
we've set the QUICK flag in init_revisions(). So the real question is
why QUICK is not kicking in.
