I would refer you to the selected inventory feature plan outlined in
http://bugs.gnuarch.org/126 , except it doesn't appear to distinguish
between file data changes and meta-data changes (only between those and
renames). But in the long run, I would expect 'tla undo --metadata' to
be an alias for 'tla undo --selection (m ".")', supposing 'm' meant
metadata changes only. Or something like that.
