Subject: Git reset -p on working tree
Message-ID: <AANLkTimc=Dt9YSu=J=7C-f1hZ9UODU7VHu6oD8dmFX3N@mail.gmail.com>

Often I find it useful to selectively undo the modifications that I
did to my working tree. The -p option to 'reset' that selectively
resets changes back to a given commit. Unfortunately the option
reports itself to be incompatible with --{hard,soft,mixed} and thus
can't be applied to working tree.

Right now I do this with vimdiff, by applying 'git diff' in reverse.
Wish reset supports -p on working tree operations as well because the
-p framework (of add, and reset) feels good to use.
