* TODO: We should actually invalidate o->result, not src_index [1].
* But since cache tree and untracked cache both are not copied to
* o->result until unpacking is complete, we invalidate them on
* src_index instead with the assumption that they will be copied to
* dst_index at the end.
*
* [1] src_index->cache_tree is also used in unpack_callback() so if
* we invalidate o->result, we need to update it to use
* o->result.cache_tree as well.
