How do I discard changes in my working copy that are not in the index?

For all unstaged files in current working directory use: git restore . That together with git switch replaces the overloaded git checkout (see here), and thus removes the argument disambiguation. If a file has both staged and unstaged changes, only the unstaged changes shown in git diff are reverted.
Unstaged changes are changes that are not tracked by the Git. For example, if you copy a file or modify the file. Git maintains a staging area(also known as index) to track changes that go in your next commit.
For all unstaged files in current working directory use:
git checkout -- . For a specific file use:
git checkout -- path/to/file/to/revert -- here to remove ambiguity (this is known as argument disambiguation).
For Git 2.23 onwards, one may want to use the more specific
git restore . resp.
git restore path/to/file/to/revert that together with git switch replaces the overloaded git checkout (see here), and thus removes the argument disambiguation.
