[PATCH 2/2] git-reset <tree> -- <path> restores absense of <path> in <tree>

From

When <path> exists in the index (either merged or unmerged), and <tree> does not have it, git-reset should be usable to restore the absense of it from the tree. This implements it.

 * By the way, I noticed that "git log --diff-filter=A --
   t/t5401-update-hooks.sh" does not find the commit that
   introduced the path.  v1.4.1.1 seems to work but v1.4.2.4
   does not.  I haven't bisected it yet...
