When 5102c617 (Add case insensitivity support for directories when using git status, 2010-10-03) added directories to the name-hash there was only a single hash table in which both real cache entries and leading directory prefixes were registered. To distinguish between the two types of entries, directories were stored with a trailing '/'.
2092678c (name-hash.c: fix endless loop with core.ignorecase=true, 2013-02-28), however, moved directories to a separate hash table (index_state.dir_hash) but retained the now-redundant trailing '/', thus callers still bear the burden of ensuring its presence before searching via index_dir_exists(). Eliminate this redundancy by storing paths in the dir-hash without the trailing '/'. An important benefit of this change is that it eliminates undocumented and dangerous behavior of dir.c:directory_exists_in_index_icase() in which it assumes not only that it can validly access one character beyond the end of its incoming directory argument, but also that that character will unconditionally be a '/'. This perilous behavior was "tolerated" because the string passed in by its lone caller always had a '/' in that position, however, things broke [1] when 2eac2a4c (ls-files -k: a directory only can be killed if the index has a non-directory, 2013-08-15) added a new caller which failed to respect the undocumented assumption.
