Docs feedback: PartialClone page tells to watch an issue which appears to be resolved
Under this section: https://docs.gitlab.com/ee/topics/git/partial_clone.html#filter-by-file-path find the text: "Follow issue tracking support for --filter=sparse:oid for updates."
It references this issue, which seems to be resolved: git#4 (closed)
If the issue actually is resolved, that would appear to mean the entirety of Step 2 is no longer required, but it might also imply the other steps need review and testing for accuracy.
Since this is an awesome and new feature - and deals with a common customer problem (large binaries in Git) - an accurate state of the docs would be very helpful.
