update-index: new options to enable/disable split index mode
If you have a large work tree but only make changes in a subset, then $GIT_DIR/index's size should be stable after a while. If you change branches that touch something else, $GIT_DIR/index's size may grow large that it becomes as slow as the unified index. Do --split-index again occasionally to force all changes back to the shared index and keep $GIT_DIR/index small.
