Replaces `git reset` commands that deal with restoring files from the working tree or index with `git restore`. I believe this better aligns with the documentation, in particular [Reset, restore and revert](https://git-scm.com/docs/git#_reset_restore_and_revert) > git-restore[1] is about restoring files in the working tree from either the index or another commit. This command does not update your branch. The command can also be used to restore files in the index from another commit. > git-reset[1] is about updating your branch, moving the tip in order to add or remove commits from the branch. This operation changes the commit history.
