            Bug ID: 5626
           Summary: `hg purge` doesn't purge files not in the sparse
                    config
           Product: Mercurial
           Version: default branch
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: bug
          Priority: normal
         Component: purge
          Assignee: bugzilla at mercurial-scm.org
          Reporter: gregory.szorc at gmail.com
                CC: mercurial-devel at mercurial-scm.org

If you enable a sparse checkout, `hg purge` doesn't appear to examine
files/directories not part of the sparse config. Therefore, files and
directories containing ignored files that weren't removed as part of
"narrowing" a working directory can't be purged.
