Is it possible to unstage files (from previous commit) when doing amend in SourceTree?

Question

When I check "amend latest commit" in SourceTree, I would like to see all the files that were included in that commit in the "Staged files" area, so that I can easily exclude a file and then redo the commit.

Git GUI has this functionality.

Yea, this is prior to a push, but I still want to be able to "add" and "remove" from the latest commit. (Its a ways of working for me, I isually push to a temp-commit in my feature-branch and then add/remove changes from that until I am ready ^_^)

True, if you've pushed the commit, you shouldn't be resetting OR amending. Both operations modify the history, which can give headaches to team members that have already fetched it.

You should only do a reset if you haven't pushed the commit, though.  A soft reset will move the branch pointer back without changing the working directory.  You can then stage only those changes you want to commit, and commit again.  This is almost certainly what Git GUI is really doing underneath the hood.
