Re: [WIP PATCH] Teach read-tree the -n|--dry-run option

The only exceptions where I could not make that replacement without
breaking a test were:

* t1001:381 (#25) new file conflicts with untracked directory
  This should have been detected by verify_absent_1(), but that function
  is left early when opts->update is 0. Will look into that.

* 1011:95  (#5)  read-tree with empty .git/info/sparse-checkout
* t1011:163 (#11) read-tree updates worktree, dirty case
  Not sure about those two as I haven't got much experience with sparse
  checkout. Will dig further, pointers welcome.

I found the reason for all three failures, patch coming.
