[PATCH v2 4/5] Documentation/reset: reorder examples to match description

From
Thomas Rast <trast@student.ethz.ch>
Date
Jul 18, 2010, 18:23 UTC
Message-ID
<4d1facbcc99ee13068a00134d01c7f717369d3b9.1279477130.git.trast@student.ethz.ch>
In-Reply-To
<cover.1279477130.git.trast@student.ethz.ch>

A previous commit moved the <paths> mode (undoes git-add) to the front in the description, so make the examples follow the same order.
