It's interesting that this test covers an aspect that was not properly
considered. When designing in-to-out, I only thought <destination> to
be a sparse directory, rather than a possible sparse file, which is
a totally valid argument. Hence, all the logics and mechanisms about
in-to-out are skipped because Git is completely blind to this file
<destination>.
It seems like an easy fix, but I was completely unaware.
Thanks for catching this!
