+ This form resets the index entries for all `<pathspec>` to their

the current branch.)

++
+After running `git reset <pathspec>` to update the index entry, you can
use linkgit:git-restore[1] to check the contents out of the index to
the working tree. Alternatively, using linkgit:git-restore[1]
and specifying a commit with `--source`, you
can copy the contents of a path out of a commit to the index and to the
working tree in one go.
-'git reset' (--patch | -p) [<tree-ish>] [--] [<paths>...]::
+'git reset' (--patch | -p) [<tree-ish>] [--] [<pathspec>...]::
Interactively select hunks in the difference between the index
and `<tree-ish>` (defaults to `HEAD`). The chosen hunks are applied
in reverse to the index.
+
+For more details about the <pathspec> syntax, see the 'pathspec' entry
+in linkgit:gitglossary[7].
++
This means that `git reset -p` is the opposite of `git add -p`, i.e.
you can use it to selectively reset hunks. See the ``Interactive Mode''
section of linkgit:git-add[1] to learn how to operate the `--patch` mode.
