On this line: https://git.kernel.org/cgit/git/git.git/tree/Documentation/git-reset.txt#n12

"tree-sh" should be "tree-ish".

Sure.  Though these days it might make more sense to say

	'git reset' [--soft | --mixed | --hard | --merge | --keep] <commit> [--]
	'git reset' [<tree>] [--] <path>...
	'git reset' (--patch | -p) [<tree>] [--] [<path>...]

since commands accept a commit or tag where a tree is expected pretty
much universally.

Hope that helps,
Jonathan
