Re: [PATCH v2 5/7] read-tree: narrow scope of index expansion for '--prefix'

>
> From: Victoria Dye <vdye@github.com>
>
> When 'git read-tree' is provided with a prefix, expand the index only if the
> prefix is equivalent to a sparse directory or contained within one. If the
> index is not expanded in these cases, 'ce_in_traverse_path' will indicate
> that the relevant sparse directory is not in the prefix/traverse path,
> skipping past it and not unpacking the appropriate tree(s).
>
> If the prefix is in-cone, its sparse subdirectories (if any) will be
> traversed correctly without index expansion.
