+Subject: [PATCH v3] describe: refresh the index when 'broken' flag is used
+To: git@vger.kernel.org
+
+When describe is run with 'dirty' flag, we refresh the index
+to make sure it is in sync with the filesystem before
+determining if the working tree is dirty. However, this is
+not done for the codepath where the 'broken' flag is used.
+
+This causes `git describe --broken --dirty` to false
+positively report the worktree being dirty if a file has
+different stat info than what is recorded in the index.
+Running `git update-index -q --refresh` to refresh the index
+before running diff-index fixes the problem.
+
+Also add tests to deliberately update stat info of a
+file before running describe to verify it behaves correctly.
