Subject: Re: [GSoC][RFC] discussion about stashing with conflicts

while understanding add_index_entry_with_check()
i got to do_invalidate_path().
the commit hash for do_invalidate_path() function is
`749864627c2d3c33bbc56d7ba0b5542af698cc40`
in the commit message it is explained that, cache-tree is used to
store object names of index file objects and it is kept separate from
index file because adding it would change index file format.
the part i couldn't understand is:
"During various index manupulations, we selectively invalidate
the parts so that the next write-tree can bypass regenerating
tree objects for unchanged parts of the directory hierarchy."
what exactly does invalidating means here ?
