Fix typos in code comments which repeat various words.  Most of the
cases are simple in that they repeat a word that usually cannot be
repeated in a grammatically correct sentence.  Just remove the
incorrectly duplicated word in these cases and rewrap text, if needed.

A tricky case is usage of "that that", which is sometimes grammatically
correct.  However, an instance of this in "t7527-builtin-fsmonitor.sh"
doesn't need two words "that", because there is only one daemon being
discussed, so the word "daemon" does not need a determiner.

Reword code comment "entries exist on on-disk index" in function
update_one in file cache-tree.c, by replacing incorrect preposition "on"
with "in".

Thanks, these all look sensible.

... this doesn't read as well following the change. It would read well
if you changed it to "that the".

Not related to your patch at all, but I notice in this test that the
call to test_when_finished() is commented out:

    # test_when_finished "stop_daemon_delete_repo test_insensitive" &&

which makes me wonder if it was commented out while the test was being
debugged but then forgotten, and that the script is now potentially
leaking a running daemon if something in the test fails after the
daemon was started, or if the daemon does not shut down on its own as
it's supposed to do. [cc:+Jeff Hostetler]

Makes me wonder if it is more appropriage to replace the second
"that" with "the" there, then.

Other than that, everything else in the patch looks good.
