This `pos` comes from that line (unfortunately not part of the diff
context):

        pos = sha1_pos(hash, rerere_dir, rerere_dir_nr, rerere_dir_hash);

The `sha1_pos()` function was patched, as per Junio's suggestion, to...

        return index_pos_to_insert_pos(lo);

This `pos` comes from that `oid_array_lookup()` function that _is_ part
of the diff context. What you don't see is the definition of that
function:

        int oid_array_lookup(struct oid_array *array, const struct object_id 
*oid)
        {
                if (!array->sorted)
                                oid_array_sort(array);
                return sha1_pos(oid->hash, array->oid, array->nr, sha1_access);
        }

There you go. `sha1_pos()` again.

So yes, both of these instances were changed to call that helper on
purpose.

Ciao,
Dscho
