I would like it to git grep to not search paths outside the sparse
area (although --no-sparse would be nice for git grep in case you did
want to search everything). The main reason I want sparse checkouts is
for performance reasons. For example, git grep can take 10 minutes on
my full repository so excluding paths outside the sparse area would
reduce that to a few seconds.
