Harish was in the process of implementing this [0], but I left some comments and he hasn't re-rolled the patch since. So unless I find some time to tie it up, this will remain un-implemented. Of course, if you'd like to see that feature in git-gui, feel free to pick it up and brush up the changes :). The latest version can be found at [1]. But it does not have a proper commit message (apart from the other changes I suggested) since Harish did not format the patch correctly when sending. > * It only processes the first file selected. > * If I select a tracked file, it will still delete it, and the feature > I'm looking for is more of a "return repository to clean state" type > function, like "revert" already is but extended to handle files that > you can't actually "git revert".
