I've got a usability comment, as we're giving restore a try within
Google for now. I found myself in a situation where I had accidentally
staged all my changes to tracked files (I think resulting from a stash
pop which generated a merge conflict?) and didn't see a good way to
unstage everything using restore.
I tried out `git restore --staged *` and it tried to restore every build
artifact in my working tree, all of which should be ignored, made a lot of
noisy errors, and left me with my changes still staged.
Then, figuring that I only had a few files, I thought I'd type them
each, with the exception of a .c/.h pair:
g restore --staged builtin/log.c builtin/walken.c revision.*
Because I had build artifacts present, this vomited while trying to
unstage revision.o, and again left me with all my changes still staged.
revision.o is validly ignored:
$ g check-ignore revision.o
revision.o
Finally explicitly naming each file which I needed to restore worked,
but I have very little interest in doing this for more than a handful of
files, especially since the output of `git status` is not easy to paste
into the command line (due to the "modified:" etc marker).
I was definitely still able to make it do what I wanted with `git reset
HEAD` but thought you may be interested. It'd be cool to have a hint
which advises how you can unstage everything, or else to pay attention
to the gitignore and not try to unstage those files, or else to have a
command to unstage everything. (I looked for one by trying `git restore
--staged -a` but that doesn't exist :) )
Thanks!
Emily
