GIT: I want to unstage all files matching a certain pattern

Question

I would like to run

git reset *.foo

but this errors out.

White space in filename was causing problems using the git diff approaches but the following worked:

find ./ -name "*.foo" -exec git reset {} \;

Execution is verbose if there are many files to be unstaged.
