Hi all.
I was just about to send a long message about using exclusions
in sparse-checkout, when I did one last search and saw that all
of my problems were fixed by using '/*' instead of '*' as the
first line in .git/info/sparse-checkout.
Might it make sense for the example in git-read-tree.html to be
updated to include the leading slash?
/*
!unwanted

And neither do any of the online man pages I could find. But I'm happy that it's fixed. And the commit message is better than what I would have come up with.
