Thus, they should be easier to merge with ongoing topics. I validated your merge by rebasing the rest of my current work in this area onto 'seen'. The tests for 'git status' and 'git add' with sparse-indexes adds to the confidence of the merge. I did see a small conflict with mt/add-rm-in-sparse-checkout in one of my future patches because of an adjacent edit. I'll be sure to base my next submission on a merge with that topic. Thanks, -Stolee

You addressed most my concerns moving from the RFC to v1, and this version addresses most of my remaining comments/questions/suggestions. I only had two minor comments on the last two patches.
