And there are documentation bugs as well, both user-visible (i.e. in
a man page) and in in-code comment.

Now I made up mind: this isn't the right fix :)
The proper fix is in the last patch of this series.

Cc-ing David Turner, the trie's author; if I misunderstood anything,
then hopefully he can spot and clarify it.

SZEDER Gábor (5):
  Documentation: mention more worktree-specific exceptions
  path.c: clarify trie_find()'s in-code comment
  path.c: mark 'logs/HEAD' in 'common_list' as file
  path.c: clarify two field names in 'struct common_dir'
  path.c: don't call the match function without value in trie_find()
