[BAM-15097] Allow for sparse Git checkouts
Thanks for the update! Understandable and I appreciate the communication 
This command is experimental. Its behavior, and the behavior of other commands in the presence of sparse-checkouts will likely change in the future. Because of that we can't proceed with building a solution yet, especially as it poses a potential future risk of messing up our users' workflows.

Bamboo's Product Manager
Is there any update on this? It's now been 8 years since the initial request was opened. Partial checkouts are a very useful tool, and having the ability to do them would greatly speed up specific tasks.
It sucks that no one worked on this and it was requested in 2014. I need this.
@Tim Wilson I agree with your comment however having this feature would enable us to finally migrate from TFS to Bitbucket because of how complex our repositories and M$ builds are intertwined. Trying to break them out into individual smaller repos is probably going to take use 2-3 years with our current level of resources.
