From: Derrick Stolee <dstolee@microsoft.com>

Add a '--sparse' option flag to the pack-objects builtin. This
allows the user to specify that they want to use the new logic
for walking trees. This logic currently does not differ from the
existing output, but will in a later change.

Create a new test script, t5322-pack-objects-sparse.sh, to ensure
the object list that is selected matches what we expect. When we
update the logic to walk in a sparse fashion, the final test will
be updated to show the extra objects that are added.

 	Add --no-reuse-object if you want to force a uniform compression

+--sparse::
+	Use the "sparse" algorithm to determine which objects to include in
+	the pack, when combined with the "--revs" option. This algorithm
+	only walks trees that appear in paths that introduce new objects.
+	This can have significant performance benefits when computing
+	a pack to send a small change. However, it is possible that extra
+	objects are added to the pack-file if the included commits contain
+	certain types of direct renames.
+
 --thin::
 	Create a "thin" pack by omitting the common objects between a
 	sender and a receiver in order to reduce network transfer. This
