...and the destination file exists in the index, then we're going to be
overwriting an existing index entry.

The rest of this aligns with what's done for a normal (exists on-disk)
overwrite. There's not much in the original overwrite-handling logic that
can be reused here (it's checking for overwrite based on 'stat' rather than
the contents of the index), so code structure-wise this makes sense as a
standalone check.

Looking good!
