Alas, there are still problems - or at least I have. Let's look at the
"git checkout" manual page and its output in the "EXAMPLES" section:


        $ git checkout master             âfB(1)âfR     
        $ git checkout master~2 Makefile  âfB(2)âfR

    âfB2. âfRtake out a file out of other commit â      
    âfB3. âfRrestore hello.c from HEAD of current branch

This has been reported to Debian so perhaps the issue is
Debian-specific. I don't know. The bug was found in Debian git-core
package version 1:1.5.6-1.
