I actually spotted this in `git --help` just the other day and reacted
along the same line. So for what it's worth, this patch makes sense to
me.

Incidentally, this drops quite some indentation in `git --help` (because
"sparse-checkout" is by far the longest subcommand listed there). After
this patch, we're back within 80 columns again.
