It's documented in code ;-)

No, really, what it does is trying to reinstate not only the working 
tree's changes, but also the index' ones.  However, this can fail, when 
you have conflicts (which are stored in the index, where you therefore can 
no longer apply the changes as they were originally).

Now that you know what --index is supposed to do, maybe you are nice 
enough to extend the documentation and post a patch?

Thanks,
Dscho
