Description

This is what the current README has:
```sh
$ git checkout HEAD^ myfile
$ git add myfile
$ git commit --amend --no-edit
```

This has the disadvantage of reverting the change entirely.

Another option is to use:
```sh
$ git reset HEAD^ myfile
$ git commit --amend --no-edit
```

which is one less command, *and* preserves the changes to the file in the working tree, while removing it from the commit.
