Does EGit support resetting the index of the selected path or, even batter paths, to a given commit?

So far I don't see a way to do this but previous experience suggests it might be available somewhere I didn't think to look.

you can use any command out of "Replace with > HEAD" "Replace with Branch, Tag or Reference..." or "Replace with Commit..." to reset selected resources
to another version, though I think that kind of commands is not available directly on the index

Replace With does a checkout, not a reset, no? In other words it the equivalent of

git checkout <tree-ish> -- <path>


rather than

git reset <tree-ish> -- <path>


I'm looking specifically for the latter.

- Use "Team > Remove from Index" or "Unstage" in the staging view to reset the selected path(s) to HEAD.
- Resetting to another commit isn't yet implemented in EGit
- JGit's ResetCommand currently only supports resetting to a ref but not yet to a commit.
