Hmm. I think we'd probably want the same behavior for init and any other
commands which could potentially overwrite the contents of the
sparse-checkout file.

Those may already call list routines internally, in which case I agree
that this is already taken care of. But if not, then I think we should
match list's behavior in the new locations, too.

Thanks,
Taylor
