The workflow has one practical drawback over the current sparse checkout =
one.
For me, switching branches also implies redoing configure and make, =
doesn't it?
That adds quite a bit of overhead to build and test times.

Thus, I would suggest to document the workflow with different folders =
for the major branches.

Or, in case there is a better way, please let me know.

Thanks
Stefan
