Getting started with a sparse-checkout file can be daunting. Help
users start their sparse enlistment using 'git sparse-checkout init'.
This will set 'core.sparseCheckout=true' in their config, write
an initial set of patterns to the sparse-checkout file, and update
their working directory.
Make sure to use the `extensions.worktreeConfig` setting and write
the sparse checkout config to the worktree-specific config file.
This avoids confusing interactions with other worktrees.
The use of running another process for 'git read-tree' is sub-
optimal. This will be removed in a later change.

The sparse-checkout feature is mostly hidden to users, as its
only documentation is supplementary information in the docs for
'git read-tree'. In addition, users need to know how to edit the
.git/info/sparse-checkout file with the right patterns, then run
the appropriate 'git read-tree -mu HEAD' command. Keeping the
working directory in sync with the sparse-checkout file requires
care.
Begin an effort to make the sparse-checkout feature a porcelain
feature by creating a new 'git sparse-checkout' builtin. This
builtin will be the preferred mechanism for manipulating the
sparse-checkout file and syncing the working directory.
The documentation provided is adapted from the "git read-tree"
documentation with a few edits for clarity in the new context.
Extra sections are added to hint toward a future change to
a more restricted pattern set.

When calling `git stash` while changes were staged for files that are
marked with the `skip-worktree` bit (e.g. files that are excluded in a
sparse checkout), the files are recorded as _deleted_ instead.
The reason is that `git stash` tries to construct the tree reflecting
the worktree essentially by copying the index to a temporary one and
then updating the files from the worktree. Crucially, it calls `git
diff-index` to update also those files that are in the HEAD but have
been unstaged in the index.
However, when the temporary index is updated via `git update-index --add
--remove`, skip-worktree entries mark the files as deleted by mistake.
Let's use the newly-introduced `--ignore-skip-worktree-entries` option
of `git update-index` to prevent exactly this from happening.
Note that the regression test case deliberately avoids replicating the
scenario described above and instead tries to recreate just the symptom.

While `git update-index` mostly ignores paths referring to index entries
whose skip-worktree bit is set, in b4d1690df1 (Teach Git to respect
skip-worktree bit (reading part), 2009-08-20), for reasons that are not
entirely obvious, the `--remove` option was made special: it _does_
remove index entries even if their skip-worktree bit is set.
Seeing as this behavior has been in place for a decade now, it does not
make sense to change it.
However, in preparation for fixing a bug in `git stash` where it
pretends that skip-worktree entries have actually been removed, we need
a mode where `git update-index` leaves all skip-worktree entries alone,
even if the `--remove` option was passed.

As per Wikipedia, "In current technical usage, for one to state that a
feature is deprecated is merely a recommendation against using it." It
is thus contradictory to claim that something is not "officially
deprecated" and then to immediately state that we are both discouraging
its use and pointing people elsewhere.

We recently regressed our rendering with Asciidoctor of "literal"
elements in our manpages, i.e, stuff we have placed within `backticks`
in order to render as monospace. In particular, we lost the bold
rendering of such literal text.
The culprit is f6461b82b9 ("Documentation: fix build with Asciidoctor 2",
2019-09-15), where we switched from DocBook 4.5 to DocBook 5 with
Asciidoctor. As part of the switch, we started using the namespaced
DocBook XSLT stylesheets rather than the non-namespaced ones. (See
f6461b82b9 for more details on why we changed to the namespaced ones.)
The bold literals are implemented as an XSLT snippet <xsl:template
match="literal">...</xsl:template>. Now that we use namespaces, this
doesn't pick up our literals like it used to.
Match for "d:literal" in addition to just "literal", after defining the
d namespace. ("d" is what
http://docbook.sourceforge.net/release/xsl-ns/current/manpages/docbook.xsl
uses.) Note that we need to keep matching without the namespace for
AsciiDoc.
This boldness was introduced by 5121a6d993 ("Documentation: option to
render literal text as bold for manpages", 2009-03-27) and made the
default in 5945717009 ("Documentation: bold literals in man",
2016-05-31).
One reason this was not caught in review is that our doc-diff tool diffs
without any boldness, i.e., it "only" compares text. As pointed out by
Peff in review of this patch, one can use `MAN_KEEP_FORMATTING=1
./doc-diff <...>`
This has been optically tested with AsciiDoc 8.6.10, Asciidoctor 1.5.5
and Asciidoctor 2.0.10. I've also verified that doc-diff produces the
empty output for all three programs, as expected, and that with the
MAN_KEEP_FORMATTING trick, AsciiDoc yields no diff, whereas with
Asciidoctor, we get bold literals, just like we want.

The comments for the staging/unstaging test did not accurately
describe the scenario being tested. It is not essential that
the test files being staged/unstaged appear at the end of the
index. All that is required is that the test files are not
flagged with CE_FSMONITOR_VALID and have a position in the
index greater than the number of entries in the index after
unstaging.
The comment for this test has been updated to be more
accurate with respect to the scenario that's being tested.

In many projects the number of contributors is low enough that users know
each other and the full email address doesn't need to be displayed.
Displaying only the author's username saves a lot of columns on the screen.
Existing 'e/E' (as in "%ae" and "%aE") placeholders would show the
author's address as "prarit@redhat.com", which would waste columns to show
the same domain-part for all contributors when used in a project internal
to redhat. Introduce 'l/L' placeholders that strip '@' and domain part from
the e-mail address.
