[PATCH] Documentation: update sparse.txt to list actual location
From: Jesper Juhl
Date: Sun Jun 12 2005 - 16:47:49 EST
The information on where to get sparse is outdated. It is now maintained
in a git tree and I was unable to find anywhere to download tarballs. This
patch updates Documentation/sparse.txt to match current reality.
