I'm wondering if doing

if [ "$(show-diff)" ]; then
        git diff | git apply
else
        checkout-cache -f -a
fi

would actually buy us some time; or, how common is it for people to have
no local changes whatsoever, and whether relative slowdown of additional
show-diff to git diff would actually matter.
