Subject: [PATCH] sparse-checkout: stop blocking empty workdirs
Date: Mon, 04 May 2020 18:27:43 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <pull.624.git.1588616864222.gitgitgadget@gmail.com> (raw)
From: Derrick Stolee <dstolee@microsoft.com>
Remove the error condition when updating the sparse-checkout leaves
an empty working directory.
This behavior was added in 9e1afb167 (sparse checkout: inhibit empty
worktree, 2009-08-20). The comment was added in a7bc906f2 (Add
explanation why we do not allow to sparse checkout to empty working
tree, 2011-09-22) in response to a "dubious" comment in 84563a624
(unpack-trees.c: cosmetic fix, 2010-12-22).
With the recent "cone mode" and "git sparse-checkout init [--cone]"
command, it is common to set a reasonable sparse-checkout pattern
set of
/*
!/*/
which matches only files at root. If the repository has no such files,
then their "git sparse-checkout init" command will fail.
Now that we expect this to be a common pattern, we should not have the
commands fail on an empty working directory. If it is a confusing
result, then the user can recover with "git sparse-checkout disable"
or "git sparse-checkout set". This is especially simple when using cone
mode.

sparse-checkout: stop blocking empty workdirs
This is based on en/sparse-checkout.
This is something that Lars Schneider discovered working with a repo
that had no files at root.
Thanks, -Stolee
