  "message": "clone: add --sparse mode\n\nWhen someone wants to clone a large repository, but plans to work\nusing a sparse-checkout file, they either need to do a full\ncheckout first and then reduce the patterns they included, or\nclone with --no-checkout, set up their patterns, and then run\na checkout manually. This requires knowing a lot about the repo\nshape and how sparse-checkout works.\n\nAdd a new \u0027--sparse\u0027 option to \u0027git clone\u0027 that initializes the\nsparse-checkout file to include the following patterns:\n\n\t/*\n\t!/*/\n\nThese patterns include every file in the root directory, but\nno directories. This allows a repo to include files like a\nREADME or a bootstrapping script to grow enlistments from that\npoint.\n\nDuring the \u0027git sparse-checkout init\u0027 call, we must first look\nto see if HEAD is valid, since \u0027git clone\u0027 does not have a valid\nHEAD at the point where it initializes the sparse-checkout. The\nfollowing checkout within the clone command will create the HEAD\nref and update the working directory correctly.\n\nSigned-off-by: Derrick Stolee \u003cdstolee@microsoft.com\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Junio C Hamano \u003cgitster@pobox.com\u003e\n",
