Description
**3.5.3 (2025-04-24)**
Fixed handling of git cache when using sparse checkouts. (@mastupristi)
Need way to pass `--no-cone` flag to sparse checkout commands
Contributor guide
Research direction
Locate the code that assembles and runs sparse checkout commands, then trace how command-line options are represented and passed to Git. Add support for requesting --no-cone and verify that sparse checkout commands include the flag when requested while existing behavior remains unchanged.
