Currently when there are untracked changes in a file "one" and in a file

    git stash push -k one

all changes in "two" are wiped out completely.  That is clearly not the
intended result.  Make sure that only the files given in the pathspec
are changed when git stash push -k <pathspec> is used.
Good description.

I briefly wondered if this needed "-q" to match the earlier commit, but
"checkout-index" isn't really chatty, so I don't think so (and the
earlier checkout-index doesn't have it either).

I also wondered if this could be done in a single command as:

  git reset -q --hard $i_tree -- "$@"

But "git reset" can't handle pathspecs with "--hard" (which is why the
similar case a few lines above uses the same commands).

So this looks good to me.

I always get nervous when I see test arguments without quotes, but I
think this is fine (and I couldn't see a shorter way of doing it with
test_cmp).
