In af09ce2 ("sparse-checkout: init and set in cone mode", 2019-11-21),
the '--cone' option was added to 'git sparse-checkout init'. Add this
option to the respective doc file.

Nit: s/respective/corresponding/

"Respective" sounds -- to me at least -- like you're tweaking two
different files. Maybe that's just me.

Nit: maybe add a comma after "provided". Without it, I could see someone
false-starting the parsing as "provided with the" or even "provided to
the". Those readings obviously don't work out in the end, but with an
extra comma, I think it's easier to just naturally read this the way
it's intended.

Thanks for the comments. Junio has already addressed them[1] when
picking up the patch :)
