Subject: Deleted files can't be checked back out?
Message-ID: <fb3648c60805222128v1a425c60kc8e44f3a2fb41d54@mail.gmail.com>

Hello all,

I recently deleted a bunch of files and checked the change into git,
and then changed my mind and wanted the files back.  I did a
git-checkout <file> and got each file back individually.  Then I did
some work and did a git-push to upload to github. Then I did more work
and tried to do a git push and it gave me an error that apparently
meant I had to pull before I pushed.  Anyway, I pulled, it redeleted
the files and now when I do git-checkout <file> to get them back it
says:

error: pathspec 'foo' did not match any file(s) known to git.

I'd really appreciate some help on this issue. I tried messing with
qgit to look at it, but I didn't have much luck...
