Cannot create a repo because the parent path does not exist

I tried following this doc

Work With Large Monorepos With Sparse Checkout Support in Databricks Repos | Databricks Blog

When I hook it up to my repos using Azure DevOps Services and check mark Sparse checkout mode, I pass in a subdirectory in my Cone patterns

However, it returns a "Cannot create a repo because the parent path does not exist" error.

Also this doc is outdated. Run Git operations on Databricks Repos - Azure Databricks | Microsoft Learn

In the "Patterns for a repo config file" section, it says to include asterisks * like in gitignore. However, the databricks website throws an error when a user tries to add asterisks.

not sure what happened. I deleted the folder and recreated the folder and the sparse mode checkout worked
