"git checkout HEAD ." Instead of "git reset HEAD ." Smeg! Just shoot me. I'm going to bed and restarting in the morning like today never happened.

    My version of this is 'git checkout branchname path/to/file .' because I want to copy from the path to here. I've done it three times now.

    It's like dropping a table in sql. No confirmation dialog. No warning. Just a silent "ok" and new console line.
