ok, updated the patch. I did not investigate the exact behavior
further, so please take a critical view. Adding more test would
be helpful too.

One may note that JGit has a performance problem which gets
worse here because we do not rewrite the smudged index after
comparing the content. C Git does this and therefore does not
have to repeat this content comparison again until the file, index
or HEAD changes. 

The issue is more  likely to hurt with autocrlf enabled since we
need to read the file more than once.
