Hi,

I appreciate all the work that has been done to give us Git users good
documentation.

As a rather-newbie I have to lookup the commands I need for rarely used,
specific tasks. <git reset ...> being one of them. If find chapter "7.7
Git Tools - Reset Demystified" very helpful. There is however one point
that newbies might not (yet) clearly understand: The git reset does
*not* do anything to new, untracked files that might exist in the
working tree. To cleanup, the advice from various places on the internet
is to issue a "git clean -f -d" after the reset.

Maybe it would be helpful if said chapter had a short discussion about
non tracked files, how to clean with "git clean -f -d"

Thanks
Peter
