        Find an entry in a tree given a pathname and the sha1 of a tree to
        search. Returns 0 if the entry is found and -1 otherwise. The third
        and fourth parameters are set to the entry&#8217;s sha1 and mode
        respectively.

<code>traverse_trees</code>
</dt>
<dd>
<p>
        Traverse <code>n</code> number of trees in parallel. The <code>fn</code> callback member of
        <code>traverse_info</code> is called once for each tree entry.
</p>
</dd>
<dt class="hdlist1">
<code>traverse_callback_t</code>
</dt>
<dd>
<p>
        The arguments passed to the traverse callback are as follows:
</p>
<div class="ulist"><ul>
<li>
<p>
<code>n</code> counts the number of trees being traversed.
</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>
<code>mask</code> has its nth bit set if something exists in the nth entry.
</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>
<code>dirmask</code> has its nth bit set if the nth tree&#8217;s entry is a directory.
</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>
<code>entry</code> is an array of size <code>n</code> where the nth entry is from the nth tree.
</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>
<code>info</code> maintains the state of the traversal.
</p>
</li>
</ul></div>
<div class="paragraph"><p>Returning a negative value will terminate the traversal. Otherwise the
return value is treated as an update mask. If the nth bit is set the nth tree
will be updated and if the bit is not set the nth tree entry will be the
same in the next callback invocation.</p></div>
</dd>
<dt class="hdlist1">
<code>make_traverse_path</code>
</dt>
<dd>
<p>
        Generate the full pathname of a tree entry based from the root of the
        traversal. For example, if the traversal has recursed into another
        tree named "bar" the pathname of an entry "baz" in the "bar"
        tree would be "bar/baz".
</p>
</dd>
<dt class="hdlist1">
<code>traverse_path_len</code>
</dt>
<dd>
<p>
        Calculate the length of a pathname returned by <code>make_traverse_path</code>.
        This utilizes the memory structure of a tree entry to avoid the
        overhead of using a generic strlen().
