From: Elijah Newren <newren@xxxxxxxxx>
The 'init' subcommand of sparse-checkout was deprecated in ba2f3f58ac
("git-sparse-checkout.txt: update to document init/set/reapply changes",
2021-12-14), but a couple places in the manual still assumed it was the
primary way to use sparse-checkout. Correct them.
