== Maintainer notes ==

Note: There is a small textual and small semantic conflict with
ds/sparse-checkout-requires-per-worktree-config in seen. I included the diff
with the correct resolution near the end of this cover letter. If you'd
prefer I rebased on top of ds/sparse-chckout-requires-per-worktree-config,
let me know.

== Overview ==

This series continues attempts to make sparse-checkouts more user friendly.
A quick overview:

 * Patches 1-2 fix existing bugs from en/sparse-checkout-set (i.e. in
   v2.35.0)
 * Patch 3 fixes sparse-checkout-from-subdirectories-ignores-"prefix" (see
   https://lore.kernel.org/git/29f0410e-6dfa-2e86-394d-b1fb735e7608@gmail.com/),
   in cone mode. Since we'll get nasty surprises whether we use or don't use
   "prefix" for non-cone mode, simply throw an error if set/add subcommands
   of sparse-checkout are run from a subdirectory.
 * Patches 4-5 check positional arguments to set/add and provide
   errors/warnings for very likely mistakes. It also adds a --skip-checks
   flag for overridding in case you have a very unusual situation.

== Update history ==

Changes since v3:

 * Use strpbrk() instead of multiple strchr(), fix commit message relative
   to backslashes.

Changes since v2:

 * Dropped patch 5
 * Added Stolee's Reviewed-by

Changes since v1:

 * Dropped the commit changing cone-mode to default (patch 7, which will be
   split into multiple patches and submitted as a separate series)
 * Removed the RFC label
 * Decided to error out when running set/add with paths from a subdirectory
   in non-cone mode, and added tests
 * Changed the warning for non-cone mode with individual files to point out
   that the user is likely trying to select an individual file, but should
   likely add a leading slash to ensure that is what happens
 * Fixed typos, removed unnecessary condition checks

== Conflict resolution ==

Patch to resolve textual and semantic conflict with
ds/sparse-checkout-requires-per-worktree-config:

Elijah Newren (5):
  sparse-checkout: correct reapply's handling of options
  sparse-checkout: correctly set non-cone mode when expected
  sparse-checkout: pay attention to prefix for {set, add}
  sparse-checkout: error or warn when given individual files
  sparse-checkout: reject arguments in cone-mode that look like patterns

I read this v4, and then left a couple of replies on the v2 by mistake,
but they apply to the code in v4. Sorry about the mix-up.
