+ * To keep the batch list from growing unbounded in response to filesystem
+ * activity, we try to truncate old batches from the end of the list as
+ * they become irrelevant.
+ *
+ * We assume that the .git/index will be updated with the most recent token
+ * any time the index is updated. And future commands will only ask for
+ * recent changes *since* that new token. So as tokens advance into the
+ * future, older batch items will never be requested/needed. So we can
+ * truncate them without loss of functionality.
+ *
+ * However, multiple commands may be talking to the daemon concurrently
+ * or perform a slow command, so a little "token skew" is possible.
+ * Therefore, we want this to be a little bit lazy and have a generous
+ * delay.
+ *
+ * The current reader thread walked backwards in time from `token->batch_head`
+ * back to `batch_marker` somewhere in the middle of the batch list.
+ *
+ * Let's walk backwards in time from that marker an arbitrary delay
+ * and truncate the list there. Note that these timestamps are completely
+ * artificial (based on when we pinned the batch item) and not on any
+ * filesystem activity.
+ *
+ * Return the obsolete portion of the list after we have removed it from
+ * the official list so that the caller can free it after leaving the lock.
