"git checkout branch path" (by the way, "branch" does not have to be a branch name; any commit object name would do, like "git checkout HEAD^^ hello.c") is a way to check out named path(s) out of the named commit. If the commit "branch" has "path" in it, its contents are checked out to "path" in your current working tree (and the entry in the index updated to match it). If you happen to have removed "path" in your current working tree before running that command, it might look as if there is some undelete going on, but that is a wrong way to look at things. The version of "path" in the "branch" may or may not be similar to what you have removed earlier. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
