I find the percentage helpful for users who are exploring the
sparse-checkout feature in their repositories. It's nice to know how
much time it is saving, because "percentage of files" frequently
translates to "percentage of time it takes to update the worktree".

I was sad to lose it here, but I don't see any way to keep it.
