The purpose of this clearing is, as explained in comment, because verify_*() may set those bits before apply_sparse_checkout() is called. By that time, it's not clear whether an entry will stay in checkout area or out. After $GIT_DIR/info/sparse-checkout is applied, we know what entries will be in finally. It's time to clean unwanted bits. That works perfectly when checkout area remains unchanged. When checkout area changes, apply_sparse_checkout() may set CE_UPDATE or CE_WT_REMOVE to widen/narrow checkout area. Doing the clearing after apply_sparse_checkout() may clear those widening/narrowing bits unexpectedly. So, only do that on entries that are not affected by checkout area changes (i.e. skip-worktree bit does not change after apply_sparse_checkout). This code does not actually fix anything though, just future-proof. The removed code and the narrow/widen code inside apply_sparse_checkout are currently independent (narrow code never sets CE_REMOVE, widen code sets CE_UPDATE, but ce_skip_worktree() would be false).

GIT - the stupid content tracker
////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
"git" can mean anything, depending on your mood.
- random three-letter combination that is pronounceable, and not
actually used by any common UNIX command. The fact that it is a
mispronunciation of "get" may or may not be relevant.
- stupid. contemptible and despicable. simple. Take your pick from the
dictionary of slang.
- "global information tracker": you're in a good mood, and it actually
works for you. Angels sing, and a light suddenly fills the room.
- "goddamn idiotic truckload of sh*t": when it breaks
Git is a fast, scalable, distributed revision control system with an
unusually rich command set that provides both high-level operations
and full access to internals.
Git is an Open Source project covered by the GNU General Public License.
It was originally written by Linus Torvalds with help of a group of
hackers around the net. It is currently maintained by Junio C Hamano.
Please read the file INSTALL for installation instructions.
See Documentation/gittutorial.txt to get started, then see
Documentation/everyday.txt for a useful minimum set of commands, and
Documentation/git-commandname.txt for documentation of each command.
If git has been correctly installed, then the tutorial can also be
read with "man gittutorial" or "git help tutorial", and the
documentation of each command with "man git-commandname" or "git help
commandname".
CVS users may also want to read Documentation/gitcvs-migration.txt
("man gitcvs-migration" or "git help cvs-migration" if git is
installed).
Many Git online resources are accessible from http://git-scm.com/
including full documentation and Git related tools.
The user discussion and development of Git take place on the Git
mailing list -- everyone is welcome to post bug reports, feature
requests, comments and patches to git@vger.kernel.org. To subscribe
to the list, send an email with just "subscribe git" in the body to
majordomo@vger.kernel.org. The mailing list archives are available at
http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=git and other archival sites.
The messages titled "A note from the maintainer", "What's in
git.git (stable)" and "What's cooking in git.git (topics)" and
the discussion following them on the mailing list give a good
reference for project status, development direction and
remaining tasks.
