Re: A suggestion: more readable human commands

To merge a single file from one branch to another:

git checkout <branch_name> <path_to_file> --patch

would be like more readable human like this:

git merge <path_file> to <dst_branch>

This is ambigous if a branch or tag named <path_file> or to exists, and
the usual disambiguation using -- will not work.
