Right now I do this with vimdiff, by applying 'git diff' in reverse.
Wish reset supports -p on working tree operations as well because the
-p framework (of add, and reset) feels good to use.

there's `git checkout -p` to selectively remove changes from your working tree.
(also `git stash -p` to selectively stash changes temporarily)

Surprised to know that checkout and stash supports it! Thanks a lot
for pointing out.

I think Git could suggest 'checkout -p' and/or 'stash -p' when user
tries to use -p with --{hard,soft,mixed} with reset command (in
addition to mentioning that they're incompatible), since relatively
new users are used to 'reset' than other commands to reset their
working trees.
