Hi,
[please do not top post. Only keep the parts of the original message that you are responding to, and put your answers just below. It is a matter of simple economy: it takes you just a couple of minutes, but spares those "millions" of readers the minutes to understand what you're talking about. In addition, it is a matter of politeness.]

You are talking as if your partial checkout was a project in its own right. Then make it so. Do not use a partial checkout, but make that a submodule.
One reason _not_ to support partial checkouts is exactly to avoid people falling into that mousetrap of thinking that they can sensibly merge _parts_ of the HEAD.
