That's not enough information for me to find what you've had in
mind. "stump Nguy site:marc.info" doesn't yield a result with Google.
I think Andreas is referring to nd/narrow topic currently parked in 'pu'.

Thanks. This looks nice.
(It is implementing the partial, or "sparse" as Nguyễn calls it,
checkouts. So it seems the more useful of the two ideas is basically
already done, at least in the sense of saving space for the checkout. It
won't 'move'/'mount' the subdirectory to the top of the working
directory if only a subdirectory is wanted, but as I've already realized
and written, Git may require a full working directory anyway for
interaction with the user during merging, and a symlink can be used
instead to 'mount' the subdirectory where the user wants it (if the OS
supports that). Straightforward solution.)
