git restore

• mpawelski 6y ago
  +1 this. It's not just better name for doing "git checkout -- path". "git checkout" has this stupid behavior of restoring files to worktree and index. "git restore" by default doesn't touch index (I wrote SO answer that explains this a bit more: https://stackoverflow.com/a/60855504/350384 https://stackoverflow.com/a/60855504/350384) there is also "git switch" but I just kept using "git checkout" because there is nothing "git switch" can do that "git checkout" can (it's just a shorter name but I had aliased "checkout" to "ch" anyway, as many people do)
