git-update-index :-)
You can use something like:
git ls-tree HEAD oops/file1 | git update-index --index-info
to restore the index state of oops/file1.
Which leads us to the always interesting, fun and exciting:
git ls-tree -r HEAD | git update-index --index-info
which will undo everything except 'git add' from the index, as
ls-tree -r is listing everything in the last commit.
... and also shows The Power of the Pipe, which Daniel@google was
missing in recent versions of git. ;-)
Btw, this is most definitely not a documented thing and requires a bit
of core git knowledge, so perhaps the "shell-scripts were good for
hackers to learn what to pipe where" really *is* a very important point.
