OK, the way I understand the above two paragraphs is that after this
patch it won't be necessary to write the updated patterns to the
'sparse-checkout' file before calling unpack_trees(), and to me it
implies that it won't be necessary to write the "include everything"
pattern to that file during disabling sparse checkout.

However, as the patch context here shows we still write that "include
everything" pattern to the 'sparse-checkout' file during disabling.

FWIW, deleting those lines updating the 'sparse-checkout' file make
the 'sparse-checkout disable' test fail.

Did I misunderstand what the commit message is trying to say?
