From: Derrick Stolee <dstolee@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>
This is the first change in a series to allow modifying the
sparse-checkout pattern set without expanding a sparse index to a full
one in the process. Here, we focus on the problem of expanding the
pattern set through a command like 'git sparse-checkout add <path>'
which needs to create new index entries for the paths now being written
to the worktree.
To achieve this, we need to be able to replace sparse directory entries
with their contained files and subdirectories. Once this is complete,
other code paths can discover those cache entries and write the
corresponding files to disk before committing the index.
We already have logic in ensure_full_index() that expands the index
entries, so we will use that as our base. Create a new method,
expand_to_pattern_list(), which takes a pattern list, but for now mostly
ignores it. The current implementation is only correct when the pattern
list is NULL as that does the same as ensure_full_index(). In fact,
ensure_full_index() is converted to a shim over
expand_to_pattern_list().
A future update will actually implement expand_to_pattern_list() to its
full capabilities. For now, it is created and documented.
