These proposed changes look great.

Would it make sense to deprecate using "git reset --" for this then?
It's always seemed confusing to me to have such disparate
functionality in the reset command.

It would be nice if the "git export" command could "checkout" a
non-repo copy of a remote repo at a specific version. This would be as
simple as calling archive on the remote size and then unarchiving it
locally. But would of course take care of all the plumbing.
(Sorry for the resend, Sam.)
