-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 I recognize that this isn't how most folks develop and would probably make some break out in hives, but I do a very exploratory style of programming, and since many of my apps are mobile tech, I tend to test a batch of changes and new features in the field before pushing them to the repository, even experimentally. There's no point in telling me about the cheapness of branching. I know that, and this tinkering is just my style. :)
In Git, I can use tools like stash and/or "git add --patch" to sweep through files chunk by chunk, adding/discarding them, splitting them into finer chunks, etc. It works well with my style, as if I find a change that I actually want to keep then I can add it to trunk or an experimental branch. It occurred to me, though, that this functionality could likely be supported by a separate stash tool. Maybe it sweeps through the file, letting you add/discard changes and saving any you discard as a series of diffs in a hidden directory in the repository. This could then be ignored, and you'd then have stashing/interactive adding from anywhere, even outside of source control. Does anyone know of such a tool? And is this something that might be added to Fossil in the future? I could see how it might be considered bloat, particularly if something else provides it, but figured it couldn't hurt to ask.
