I have made some changed on my working directory the other day, not all changes were related between them, so I wanted to commit them separated with two different commit messages.
But I run
git add -A
And the I realized that, I need to roll git add back. I was lucky I had not issued git commit yet.
What I did was run
git reset [FILE]
For every file I did not want in that commit. Then I finallt run
git commit -m 'message 1'
Finally
git add -A
And
git commit -m 'message 2'
Now each commit had the right files for the message.
