If you look inside the rake/ directory, you should see that only "docs.rake" was checked out. The sparse-checkout file uses the same parser as .git/info/exclude. One important aspect of that file is that entries are _not_ left-anchored unless they start with "/". So you asked Git to include files named "docs*" anywhere in the tree. You probably wanted just: echo /docs >.git/info/sparse-checkout -Peff

Inside lib, you get only "lib/theme_template/Gemfile", because it matches your unanchored pattern. Using "/Gemfile" in the sparse-checkout file fixes it. -Peff
