I think this patch might make more sense _after_ patch 4. Without the
changes in patch 4, modifying how a sparse index is handled here doesn't
immediately change any functionality. Then, patch 4 effectively makes its
own changes (enable the sparse index) + "turns on" the changes from this
series, all at once.
I usually recommend trying to make the effects of a patch testable in that
patch (as long as it doesn't make a series more complicated/confusing). In
this case, it looks like you could swap the order of the commits and only
need to adjust the 'test_expect_success'/'test_expect_failure' settings on
the tests, making it a good candidate for this kind of reordering.
All that said, I don't think changing this is worth a re-roll on its own -
it's moreso intended as "things to consider for future series". :)
