From: Victoria Dye <vdye@xxxxxxxxxx>
Add the 'recursive' flag to 'wt_status_collect_changes_index(...)'. Without
the 'recursive' flag, 'git status' could report index changes incorrectly
when the following conditions were met:
* sparse index is enabled
* there is a difference between the index and HEAD in a file inside a
*subdirectory* of a sparse directory
* the sparse directory index entry is *not* expanded in-core
In this scenario, 'git status' would not recurse into the sparse directory's
subdirectories to identify which file contained the difference between the
index and HEAD. Instead, it would report the immediate subdirectory itself
as "modified".
Example:
$ git init
$ mkdir -p sparse/sub
$ echo test >sparse/sub/foo
$ git add .
$ git commit -m "commit 1"
$ echo somethingelse >sparse/sub/foo
$ git add .
$ git commit -a -m "commit 2"
$ git sparse-checkout set --cone --sparse-index 'sparse'
$ git reset --soft HEAD~1
$ git status
On branch master
You are in a sparse checkout.
Changes to be committed:
(use "git restore --staged <file>..." to unstage)
modified: sparse/sub
The 'recursive' diff option in 'wt_status_collect_changes_index' corrects
this by indicating that 'git status' should recurse into sparse directories
to find modified files. Given the same repository setup as the example
above, the corrected result of `git status` is:
$ git status
On branch master
You are in a sparse checkout.
Changes to be committed:
(use "git restore --staged <file>..." to unstage)
modified: sparse/sub/foo
