This all makes sense. Stepping through the code...

...then remove the in-place 'add_slash()' of 'dest_path[0]' and use
'dst_w_slash' in 'internal_prefix_pathspec()'. Makes sense.

Then, this block is reached if 'dest_path' is not '.' and it is not a
directory that exists on disk.
Previously, reaching this point meant that 'dest_path' *must* refer to a
file, not a directory. However, you want to add handling for the case where
'dst_w_slash' doesn't exist on disk because all of its contents are sparse:

so the above condition identifies whether 'dest_path[0]' is non-empty in the
index, and sets 'destination' accordingly.
It took me some time to understand what all of these (nested) conditions are
doing; one suggestion I have (feel free to ignore it, since it's really just
a matter of stylistic preference) is reduce some duplicate code/simplify the
change a bit by moving the sparse directory check into the main "if-else"
block:

It doesn't make for the prettiest condition (so your current approach might
be better in terms of readability) but, to me, it creates a clearer
distinction between the "if" and "else if" blocks (which handle the case
where 'dest_path[0]' is a directory), and the "else" block (which handles
the case where 'dest_path[0]' is a file).

Looks good.
