From: Derrick Stolee <dstolee@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> The 'git show' command can take an input to request the state of an object in the index. This can lead to parsing the index in order to load a specific file entry. Without the change presented here, a sparse index would expand to a full one, taking much longer than usual to access a simple file. There is one behavioral change that happens here, though: we now can find a sparse directory entry within the index! Commands that previously failed because we could not find an entry in the worktree or index now succeed because we _do_ find an entry in the index. There might be more work to do to make other situations succeed when looking for an indexed tree, perhaps by looking at or updating the cache-tree extension as needed. These situations include having a full index or asking for a directory that is within the sparse-checkout cone (and hence is not a sparse directory entry in the index). For now, we demonstrate how the sparse index integration is extremely simple for files outside of the cone as well as directories within the cone. A later change will resolve this behavior around sparse directories.
