unpack-trees(): "enable" sparse checkout and load $GIT_DIR/info/sparse-checkout
This patch introduces core.sparseCheckout, which will control whether sparse checkout support is enabled in unpack_trees() It also loads sparse-checkout file that will be used in the next patch. I split it out so the next patch will be shorter, easier to read. Signed-off-by: Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy <pclouds@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
