Where did you find 0.99.7 ToDo?  I am curious...

commit 4aaa702794447d9b281dd22fe532fd61e02434e1
Author: Junio C Hamano <junkio@xxxxxxx>

    git-checkout: revert specific paths to either index or a given tree-ish.
    
    When extra paths arguments are given, git-checkout reverts only those
    paths to either the version recorded in the index or the version
    recorded in the given tree-ish.
    
    This has been on the TODO list for quite a while.
