[PATCH] commit: Optimize number of lstat() calls

["Gumbel, Matthew K" <matthew.k.gumbel@intel.com>]

When making a --only commit, original behavior was to do a full cache
update for the purposes of giving the pre-commit hook an up-to-date set 
of stat data. That would result in long runtime for git-commit in a big 
repo on NFS (>60s for a 54k-file repo).

With this change, when doing a --only commit and no pre-commit hook is
present, the cache update is skipped since it is known a priori which
files are to be committed.

This was discussed on the mailing list here:
