When using the sparse checkout feature the git reset command will add
entries to the index that will have the skip-worktree bit off but will
leave the working directory empty. File data is lost because the index
version of the files has been changed but there is nothing that is in the
working directory. This will cause the next status call to show either
deleted for files modified or deleting or nothing for files added.
The added files should be shown as untracked and modified files should
be shown as modified.
To fix this when the reset is running if there is not a file in the
working directory and if it will be missing with the new index entry
or was not missing in the previous version, we create the previous index
version of the file in the working directory so that status will report
correctly and the files will be availble for the user to deal with.
