- * The .gitattributes file only applies to files within its
- * parent directory. In the case of cone-mode sparse-checkout,
- * the .gitattributes file is sparse if and only if all paths
- * within that directory are also sparse. Thus, don't load the
- * .gitattributes file since it will not matter.
- *
- * In the case of a sparse index, it is critical that we don't go
- * looking for a .gitattributes file, as doing so would cause the
- * index to expand.
+ * When handling sparse-checkouts, .gitattributes files
+ * may reside within a sparse directory. We distinguish
+ * whether a path exists directly in the index or not by
+ * evaluating if 'pos' is negative.
+ * If 'pos' is negative, the path is not directly present
+ * in the index and is likely within a sparse directory.
+ * For paths not in the index, The absolute value of 'pos'
+ * minus 1 gives us the position where the path would be
+ * inserted in lexicographic order within the index.
+ * We then subtract another 1 from this value
+ * (sparse_dir_pos = -pos - 2) to find the position of the
+ * last index entry which is lexicographically smaller than
+ * the path. This would be the sparse directory containing
+ * the path. By identifying the sparse directory containing
+ * the path, we can correctly read the attributes specified
+ * in the .gitattributes file from the tree object of the
+ * sparse directory.

+# NEEDSWORK: The 'diff --check' test is left as 'test_expect_failure' due

+# inside of a sparse directory. Specifically, the 'ce_path_match()' function
+# fails to recognize files inside a sparse directory (e.g., when 'folder1/'
