From: Derrick Stolee <dstolee@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>
Getting started with a sparse-checkout file can be daunting. Help
users start their sparse enlistment using 'git sparse-checkout init'.
This will set 'core.sparseCheckout=true' in their config, write
an initial set of patterns to the sparse-checkout file, and update
their working directory.
Using 'git read-tree' to clear directories does not work cleanly
on Windows, so manually delete directories that are tracked by Git
before running read-tree.
The use of running another process for 'git read-tree' is likely
suboptimal, but that can be improved in a later change, if valuable.
