Restore from Diff in Vim

I often use diffs in Vim to compare my current file with the previous Git commit. vim-fugitive is one way to do this, via commands like :Gdiff or :Gvdiff (vertical option).

From this diff state, we can restore the code from one pane to the other using the command :diffput. This is useful for restoring one line, or a range, from the previous commit to my working copy.
