replace reference to git-rm with git-reset in git-commit doc
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
The message in git-commit suggesting to use 'git rm --cached'
to unstage is just plain wrong. It really should mention 'git reset'.

--------
When recording your own work, the contents of modified files in
your working tree are temporarily stored to a staging area
called the "index" with gitlink:git-add[1]. Removal
of a file is staged with gitlink:git-rm[1]. After building the
state to be committed incrementally with these commands, `git
commit` (without any pathname parameter) is used to record what
called the "index" with gitlink:git-add[1]. A file can be
reverted back, only in the index but not in the working tree,
to that of the last commit with `git-reset HEAD -- <file>`,
which effectively reverts `git-add` and prevents the changes to
this file from participating in the next commit. After building
the state to be committed incrementally with these commands,
`git commit` (without any pathname parameter) is used to record what
has been staged so far. This is the most basic form of the
command. An example:
