[PATCH v4 16/17] sparse-checkout: write using lockfile

From: Derrick Stolee via GitGitGadget <hidden>
Date: 2019-10-15 13:56:28
Subsystem: the rest · Maintainer: Linus Torvalds

From: Derrick Stolee <redacted>

If two 'git sparse-checkout set' subcommands are launched at the
same time, the behavior can be unexpected as they compete to write
the sparse-checkout file and update the working directory.

Take a lockfile around the writes to the sparse-checkout file. In
addition, acquire this lock around the working directory update
to avoid two commands updating the working directory in different
ways.
