But after I test,I found that after run this command,the file I do 
checkout action become unstaged.
It is weard,because I have set the "--work-tree" to another directory.
my command line for example:
git --work-tree=. --git-dir="/media/linux/t/kernel/.git" checkout 
HEAD -- Android.mk

You can test with a git repository.I have no idea how to work around now.
