Thanks. I didn't omitted the help message of git status. The "unstage"
action is what I was looking for but I was wrongly presuming (and I've
read git docs !) that 'HEAD' is a kind of shortcut to the last commit of
the current branch (not to the last state of the working tree).

Working on branch master for example, we have in .git/HEAD :
ref: refs/heads/master
And in .git/refs/heads/master, the hash of the last commit of branch
master.

I'm missing something here. But what ?
