[PATCH 08/27] sparse-checkout: hold pattern list in index

Message-ID
<80aac5b8b71da96d6287f19e30f4ee8f786ca07b.1611596534.git.gitgitgadget@gmail.com>
In-Reply-To
<pull.847.git.1611596533.gitgitgadget@gmail.com>
From: Derrick Stolee <dstolee@microsoft.com>

As we modify the sparse-checkout definition, we perform index operations on a pattern_list that only exists in-memory. This allows easy backing out in case the index update fails.

However, if the index write itself cares about the sparse-checkout pattern set, we need access to that in-memory copy. Place a pointer to a 'struct pattern_list' in the index so we can access this on-demand. This will be used in the next change which uses the sparse-checkout definition to filter out directories that are outsie the sparse cone.
