Yeah, there's also low-level common files like sha1-file.c or
ll-merge.c which now have &the_index in them (or more references to
it). Clearly those need to be propagated up, but as you say, there's
more work to do. Your patch series just moves things in the right
direction.

Sure, I can tackle that.
