As we increase our list of commands to test in
p2000-sparse-operations.sh, we will want to have a slightly smaller test
repository. Reduce the size by a factor of four by reducing the depth of
the step that creates a big index around a moderately-sized repository.
Also add a step to run 'git checkout -' on repeat. This requires having
a previous location in the reflog, so add that to the initialization
steps.

There are several situations where a repository with sparse-checkout
enabled will act differently than a normal repository, and in ways that
are not intentional. The test t1092-sparse-checkout-compatibility.sh
documents some of these deviations, but a casual reader might think
these are intentional behavior changes.
Add comments on these tests that make it clear that these behaviors
should be updated. Using 'NEEDSWORK' helps contributors find that these
are potential areas for improvement.

If we need to expand a sparse-index into a full one, then the FS Monitor
bitmap is going to be incorrect. Ensure that we start fresh at such an
event.
While this is currently a performance drawback, the eventual hope of the
sparse-index feature is that these expansions will be rare and hence we
will be able to keep the FS Monitor data accurate across multiple Git
commands.
These tests are added to demonstrate that the behavior is the same
across a full index and a sparse index, but also that file modifications
to a tracked directory outside of the sparse cone will trigger
ensure_full_index().

It is difficult, but possible, to get into a state where we intend to
add a directory that is outside of the sparse-checkout definition. Add a
test to t1092-sparse-checkout-compatibility.sh that demonstrates this
using a combination of 'git reset --mixed' and 'git checkout --orphan'.
This test failed before because the output of 'git status
--porcelain=v2' would not match on the lines for folder1/:
* The sparse-checkout repo (with a full index) would output each path
name that is intended to be added.
* The sparse-index repo would only output that "folder1/" is staged for
addition.
The status should report the full list of files to be added, and so this
sparse-directory entry should be expanded to a full list when reaching
it inside the wt_status_collect_changes_initial() method. Use
read_tree_at() to assist.
Somehow, this loop over the cache entries was not guarded by
ensure_full_index() as intended.

By testing 'git -c core.fsmonitor= status -uno', we can check for the
simplest index operations that can be made sparse-aware. The necessary
implementation details are already integrated with sparse-checkout, so
modify command_requires_full_index to be zero for cmd_status().
In refresh_index(), we loop through the index entries to refresh their
stat() information. However, sparse directories have no stat()
information to populate. Ignore these entries.
This allows 'git status' to no longer expand a sparse index to a full
one. This is further tested by dropping the "-uno" option and adding an
untracked file into the worktree.
The performance test p2000-sparse-checkout-operations.sh demonstrates
these improvements:
Test HEAD~1 HEAD
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
2000.2: git status (full-index-v3) 0.31(0.30+0.05) 0.31(0.29+0.06) +0.0%
2000.3: git status (full-index-v4) 0.31(0.29+0.07) 0.34(0.30+0.08) +9.7%
2000.4: git status (sparse-index-v3) 2.35(2.28+0.10) 0.04(0.04+0.05) -98.3%
2000.5: git status (sparse-index-v4) 2.35(2.24+0.15) 0.05(0.04+0.06) -97.9%
Note that since HEAD~1 was expanding the sparse index by parsing trees,
it was artificially slower than the full index case. Thus, the 98%
improvement is misleading, and instead we should celebrate the 0.34s to
0.05s improvement of 85%. This is more indicative of the peformance
gains we are expecting by using a sparse index.
Note: we are dropping the assignment of core.fsmonitor here. This is not
necessary for the test script as we are not altering the config any
other way. Correct integration with FS Monitor will be validated in
later changes.

'git status' began reporting a percentage of populated paths when
sparse-checkout is enabled in 051df3cf (wt-status: show sparse
checkout status as well, 2020-07-18). This percentage is incorrect when
the index has sparse directories. It would also be expensive to
calculate as we would need to parse trees to count the total number of
possible paths.
Avoid the expensive computation by simplifying the output to only report
that a sparse checkout exists, without the percentage.
This change is the reason we use 'git status --porcelain=v2' in
t1092-sparse-checkout-compatibility.sh. We don't want to ensure that
this message is equal across both modes, but instead just the important
information about staged, modified, and untracked files are compared.

While comparing an index to a tree, we may see a sparse directory entry.
In this case, we should compare that portion of the tree to the tree
represented by that entry. This could include a new tree which needs to
be expanded to a full list of added files. It could also include an
existing tree, in which case all of the changes inside are important to
describe, including the modifications, additions, and deletions. Note
that the case where the tree has a path and the index does not remains
identical to before: the lack of a cache entry is the same with a sparse
index.
Use diff_tree_oid() appropriately to compute the diff.

When we have sparse directory entries in the index, we want to compare
that directory against sparse-checkout patterns. Those pattern matching
algorithms are built expecting a file path, not a directory path. This
is especially important in the "cone mode" patterns which will match
files that exist within the "parent directories" as well as the
recursive directory matches.
If path_matches_pattern_list() is given a directory, we can add a fake
filename ("-") to the directory and get the same results as before,
assuming we are in cone mode. Since sparse index requires cone mode
patterns, this is an acceptable assumption.

During unpack_callback(), index entries are compared against tree
entries. These are matched according to names and types. One goal is to
decide if we should recurse into subtrees or simply operate on one index
entry.
In the case of a sparse-directory entry, we do not want to recurse into
that subtree and instead simply compare the trees. In some cases, we
might want to perform a merge operation on the entry, such as during
'git checkout <commit>' which wants to replace a sparse tree entry with
the tree for that path at the target commit. We extend the logic within
unpack_single_entry() to create a sparse-directory entry in this case,
and then that is sent to call_unpack_fn().
There are some subtleties in this process. For instance, we need to
update find_cache_entry() to allow finding a sparse-directory entry that
exactly matches a given path. Use the new helper method
sparse_dir_matches_path() for this. We also need to ignore conflict
markers in the case that the entries correspond to directories and we
already have a sparse directory entry.

As we further integrate the sparse-index into unpack-trees, we need to
ensure that we compare sparse directory entries correctly with other
entries. This affects searching for an exact path as well as sorting
index entries.
Sparse directory entries contain the trailing directory separator. This
is important for the sorting, in particular. Thus, within
do_compare_entry() we stop using S_IFREG in all cases, since sparse
directories should use S_IFDIR to indicate that the comparison should
treat the entry name as a dirctory.
Within compare_entry(), it first calls do_compare_entry() to check the
leading portion of the name. When the input path is a directory name, we
could match exactly already. Thus, we should return 0 if we have an
exact string match on a sparse directory entry. The final check is a
length comparison between the strings.

The cache_bottom member of 'struct unpack_trees_options' is used to
track the range of index entries corresponding to a node of the cache
tree. While recursing with traverse_by_cache_tree(), this value is
preserved on the call stack using a local and then restored as that
method returns.
The mark_ce_used() method normally modifies the cache_bottom member when
it refers to the marked cache entry. However, sparse directory entries
are stored as nodes in the cache-tree data structure as of 2de37c53
(cache-tree: integrate with sparse directory entries, 2021-03-30). Thus,
the cache_bottom will be modified as the cache-tree walk advances. Do
not update it as well within mark_ce_used().

Before moving to update 'git status' and 'git add' to work with sparse
indexes, add an explicit test that ensures the sparse-index works the
same as a normal sparse-checkout when the worktree contains directories
and files outside of the sparse cone.
Specifically, 'folder1/a' is a file in our test repo, but 'folder1' is
not in the sparse cone. When 'folder1/a' is modified, the file is not
shown as modified and adding it will fail. This is new behavior as of
a20f704 (add: warn when asked to update SKIP_WORKTREE entries,
2021-04-08). Before that change, these adds would be silently ignored.
Untracked files are fine: adding new files both with 'git add .' and
'git add folder1/' works just as in a full checkout. This may not be
entirely desirable, but we are not intending to change behavior at the
moment, only document it. A future change could alter the behavior to
be more sensible, and this test could be modified to satisfy the new
expected behavior.

As more features integrate with the sparse-index feature, more and more
special cases arise that require different data shapes within the tree
structure of the repository in order to demonstrate those cases.
Add several interesting special cases all at once instead of sprinkling
them across several commits. The interesting cases being added here are:
* Add sparse-directory entries on both sides of directories within the
sparse-checkout definition.
* Add directories outside the sparse-checkout definition who have only
one entry and are the first entry of a directory with multiple
entries.
* Add filenames adjacent to a sparse directory entry that sort before
and after the trailing slash.
Later tests will take advantage of these shapes, but they also deepen
the tests that already exist.

When creating a full index from a sparse one, we create cache entries
for every blob within a given sparse directory entry. These are
correctly marked with the CE_SKIP_WORKTREE flag, but the CE_EXTENDED
flag is not included. The CE_EXTENDED flag would exist if we loaded a
full index from disk with these entries marked with CE_SKIP_WORKTREE, so
we can add the flag here to be consistent. This allows us to directly
compare the flags present in cache entries when testing the sparse-index
feature, but has no significance to its correctness in the user-facing
functionality.

The sparse-index format is designed to be compatible with merge
conflicts, even those outside the sparse-checkout definition. The reason
is that when converting a full index to a sparse one, a cache entry with
nonzero stage will not be collapsed into a sparse directory entry.
However, this behavior was not tested, and a different behavior within
convert_to_sparse() fails in this scenario. Specifically,
cache_tree_update() will fail when unmerged entries exist.
convert_to_sparse_rec() uses the cache-tree data to recursively walk the
tree structure, but also to compute the OIDs used in the
sparse-directory entries.
Add an index scan to convert_to_sparse() that will detect if these merge
conflict entries exist and skip the conversion before trying to update
the cache-tree. This is marked as NEEDSWORK because this can be removed
with a suitable update to cache_tree_update() or a similar method that
can construct a cache-tree with invalid nodes, but still allow creating
the nodes necessary for creating sparse directory entries.
It is possible that in the future we will not need to make such an
update, since if we do not expand a sparse-index into a full one, this
conversion does not need to happen. Thus, this can be deferred until the
merge machinery is made to integrate with the sparse-index.
