unstage file

[harilet]

I was trying to unstage files. I can add file fine by using

let mut index = repo.index().unwrap();
index.add_path(Path::new(&path)).unwrap();

I saw we can use the remove_path like this

let mut index = repo.index().unwrap();
index.remove_path(Path::new(&path)).unwrap();
index.write().unwrap();

but this deletes file not remove changes

what can I do?
and I saw this remove but the 2th parameter stage is an int but have no more detail
https://docs.rs/git2/latest/git2/struct.Index.html#method.remove

The 2nd parameter is usually 0 for the main index. Other numbers are used when dealing with merge conflicts and such.

@ehuss ok I understand that now.

so what can I do to just unstage changes from a file, any ideas?

It's index.remove(path, 0)
