"ls-files -z" on the command line?  

Apparently new tests do not cover the correctness of this codepath.

I wonder if this

	git ls-files -z --modified "$@" |
	git checkout-index -z --stdin

is what the above "checkout" wanted to do.  The "reset" in the
previous step presumably updated the index entries that match
specified pathspec to those of the HEAD, so checking out the paths
that match "$@" from the index would be the same as checking them
out from the HEAD (while updating the index with them).

Thanks.
