From: Derrick Stolee <stolee@xxxxxxxxx> The previous three changes contributed performance improvements to 'git apply', 'git add -p', and 'git reset -p' when using a sparse index. The improvement to 'git apply' also improved 'git checkout -p'. Add performance tests to demonstrate this (and to help validate that performance remains good in the future). In the truncated test output below, we see that the full checkout performance changes within noise expectations, but the sparse index cases improve 33% and then 96% for 'git add -p' and 41% and then 95% for 'git reset -p'. 'git checkout -p' improves immediatley by 91% because it does not need any change to its builtin.

As it stands, we need the sparse index improvement in 'git add -p' itself to confirm this performance improvement. Since the change for 'git add -i' is identical, we avoid a second test case for that similar operation.
