We'd invite you to live on the leading edge and try
$ git restore --source=<revision> <pathspec>
which by default checks things out only to the working tree, but not
to the index (you say --staged if you want to restore to the index,
and you say --worktree if you want to restore to the working tree,
or you can say both, which would be the same as "git checkout").
I think the new command is now on the 'pu' branch, but in a few
weeks hopefully it will appear on the 'next' branch.
