I do not have a problem with either of approaches to help debugging
(i.e. extending "ls-files --debug" or a new test helper), but I am
curious to be reminded what the plan for "git ls-files [-s]" output
is, when run in a repository in which sparse cone checkout is used.

Do we see trees and paths outside the cone omitted, or does the act
of running "ls-files" dehydrate the trees into their constituent
blobs?

Thanks.
