The range-diff seems a bit messy, because some of the changes are too big then I have to tune the --create-factor big enough to reveal these changes.

## Changes since WIP v2 ##
1. Write helper functions for t7002 to reuse some code.
2. Refactor/decouple the if/else-if checking chain.
3. Separate out the 'update_mode' refactor into a single commit.
4. Stop using update_sparsity() and instead update the SKIP_WORKTREE
   bit for each cache_entry and check it out to the working tree.
## Limitations ##

At this point, we still don't have in-cone to out-of-cone move, which I don't think is too much a problem, since the title says this series is around out-of-cone as the <source>.

But I think it worth discuss if we should implement in-cone to out-of-cone move, since it will be nice (naturally) to have it working.

However, I noticed this from the mv man page:

"In the second form, the last argument has to be an existing directory; the given sources will be moved into this directory."

I think trying to move out-of-cone, the last argument has to be an non-existent directory? I'm a bit confused: should we update some of mv basic logic to accomplish this?

Shaoxuan Yuan (7):
  t7002: add tests for moving out-of-cone file/directory
  mv: decouple if/else-if checks using goto
  mv: check if out-of-cone file exists in index with SKIP_WORKTREE bit
  mv: check if <destination> exists in index to handle overwriting
  mv: use flags mode for update_mode
  mv: add check_dir_in_index() and solve general dir check issue
  mv: update sparsity after moving from out-of-cone to in-cone

    @@ Commit message
     
         Add corresponding tests to test following situations:
     
    -    * 'refuse to move out-of-cone directory without --sparse'
    -    * 'can move out-of-cone directory with --sparse'
    -    * 'refuse to move out-of-cone file without --sparse'
    -    * 'can move out-of-cone file with --sparse'
    -    * 'refuse to move sparse file to existing destination'
    -    * 'move sparse file to existing destination with --force and --sparse'
    +    We do not have sufficient coverage of moving files outside
    +    of a sparse-checkout cone. Create new tests covering this
    +    behavior, keeping in mind that the user can include --sparse
    +    (or not), move a file or directory, and the destination can
    +    already exist in the index (in this case user can use --force
    +    to overwrite existing entry).

    -    mv: use update_sparsity() after touching sparse contents
    +    mv: update sparsity after moving from out-of-cone to in-cone
     
    -    Originally, "git mv" a sparse file/directory from out/in-cone to
    -    in/out-cone does not update the sparsity following the sparse-checkout
    -    patterns.
    +    Originally, "git mv" a sparse file from out-of-cone to
    +    in-cone does not update the moved file's sparsity (remove its
    +    SKIP_WORKTREE bit). And the corresponding cache entry is, unexpectedly,
    +    not checked out in the working tree.
     
    -    Use update_sparsity() after touching sparse contents, so the sparsity
    -    will be updated after the move.
    +    Update the behavior so that:
    +    1. Moving from out-of-cone to in-cone removes the SKIP_WORKTREE bit from
    +       corresponding cache entry.
    +    2. The moved cache entry is checked out in the working tree to reflect
    +       the updated sparsity.
