If users are having trouble with the performance of this operation and
don't care about paths outside of the sparse-checkout, they can disable
them using the sparse.expectFilesOutsideOfPatterns config option
introduced in ecc7c8841d (repo_read_index: add config to expect files
outside sparse patterns, 2022-02-25).

Could we omit this paragraph, or if you want to keep it, reword it in
some way that doesn't make it look like some tradeoff that isn't that

Makes sense to delete the paragraph. I could ship a v3, or is this
a commit-message surgery you'd be willing to do on my behalf, Junio?
Thanks,
