I read the first five patches previously.  The tiny changes there in
the range-diff still look good to me.

I very much appreciate the new patch 6.

As noted in 7/7, I'm a little unhappy with the patch to
twoway_merge(), BUT you've clearly documented the shortcomings in very
good detail and pointed out how git has (likely for decades) messed up
in related ways for non-sparse checkouts with D/F conflicts.  You've
documented it well enough and argued well enough about the relative
merits, that I have to agree with you that this is a good step
forward.  I do hope we circle back and tie up the loose ends at some
point.

So, the whole series is:
