haven't lost any information as long as you have the name of the tree
that it described.
-At the same time, the index is at the same time also the
-staging area for creating new trees, and creating a new tree always
-involves a controlled modification of the index file. In particular,
-the index file can have the representation of an intermediate tree that
-has not yet been instantiated. So the index can be thought of as a
-write-back cache, which can contain dirty information that has not yet
-been written back to the backing store.
