Say you have added <code>main.js</code> to the staging area but later you realised that you don't want to commit it.
You have two ways to achieve it.
The old way
<pre><code class="lang-bash">git reset HEAD main.js
</code></pre>
The new way
<pre><code class="lang-bash">git restore --staged main.js
</code></pre>
