It may work with your workflow, but it doesn't work with mine. :-) Right now the source tree isn't very good at building drivers from a full HEAD checkout on a -9 or -8 running system. The include paths end up pulling from the local sys/net directory, for example, rather than falling through to the specified kernel build and kernel source path. So at least for me, working almost exclusively in driver/stack land, I can do sparse check out of only the bits that I'm working on. It lets me get work done without having to run an up to date -HEAD (and keep said install up to date.) I also do development on little old netbooks with SSDs that would make it prohibitive to checkout multiple git trees. No, using git on a USB/CF/etc card doesn't work very well either I'm afraid. I'm sure there are other use cases.
