It always seemed weird that `set` would implicitly `init`, but without any of the options in `init`. > Signed-off-by: Elijah Newren <newren@xxxxxxxxx> > --- > builtin/sparse-checkout.c | 52 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++- > 1 file changed, 51 insertions(+), 1 deletion(-) > > diff --git a/builtin/sparse-checkout.c b/builtin/sparse-checkout.c > index e252b82136e..cf6a6c6c3a7 100644 > --- a/builtin/sparse-checkout.c > +++ b/builtin/sparse-checkout.c > @@ -682,17 +682,26 @@ static int sparse_checkout_add(int argc, const char **argv, const char *prefix) > } > > static char const * const builtin_sparse_checkout_set_usage[] = { > - N_("git sparse-checkout set (--stdin | <patterns>)"), > + N_("git sparse-checkout set [--cone] [--[no-]sparse-index] (--stdin | <patterns>)"), Since `cone` is an `OPT_BOOL`, shouldn't it appear in the usage string as `--[no-]cone`? Without a `--no-cone` option, it's not clear how a user would disable cone mode (since `set` preserves the existing cone mode setting if `--cone` isn't given). > NULL > }; > > static struct sparse_checkout_set_opts { > + int cone_mode; > + int sparse_index; > int use_stdin; > } set_opts; > > static int sparse_checkout_set(int argc, const char **argv, const char *prefix) > { > + int mode, record_mode; > + const char *default_patterns[] = {"/*", "!/*/"}; > + > static struct option builtin_sparse_checkout_set_options[] = { > + OPT_BOOL(0, "cone", &set_opts.cone_mode, > + N_("initialize the sparse-checkout in cone mode")), > + OPT_BOOL(0, "sparse-index", &set_opts.sparse_index, > + N_("toggle the use of a sparse index")), > OPT_BOOL(0, "stdin", &set_opts.use_stdin, > N_("read patterns from standard in")), I know this isn't part of this patch, but is `stdin` really a bool (i.e. someone might specify `--no-stdin`)?

If not, the `core_apply_sparse_checkout` part of the condition is redundant and can be removed entirely. > + set_opts.cone_mode = core_sparse_checkout_cone; > + > + /* Set cone/non-cone mode appropriately */ > + if (set_opts.cone_mode == 1) { > + mode = MODE_CONE_PATTERNS; > + core_sparse_checkout_cone = 1; > + } else { > + mode = MODE_ALL_PATTERNS; > + } > + if (record_mode && set_config(mode)) > + return 1; > + > + /* Set sparse-index/non-sparse-index mode if specified */ > + if (set_opts.sparse_index >= 0) { > + if (set_sparse_index_config(the_repository, set_opts.sparse_index) < 0) > + die(_("failed to modify sparse-index config")); > + > + /* force an index rewrite */ > + repo_read_index(the_repository); > + the_repository->index->updated_workdir = 1; > + } > + > + /* > + * Cone mode automatically specifies the toplevel directory.
