I actually do not know how to do it from the command line. What I use is the "git gui" command (*), which is a light Tk interface to essentially look at the workspace and the staging area, with a list of files to the left, modified, new, deleted, and for modified files I see the unified diff of my changes for the selected file. I use that to go through all the changes, review them, and choose which to place into the commit, whole file, chunks, parts of a chunk (stage file, stage chunk, stage lines). How it does all this underneath, i.e. which other git commands get used and how, that I do not know. (*) Note, "git gui" is not "gitk", although each can invoke the other, as a separate process. > > On Thu, Mar 19, 2015 at 8:28 PM, Andreas Kupries <andre...@activestate.com> > wrote: >> >> On Thu, Mar 19, 2015 at 5:14 PM, Richard Hipp <d...@sqlite.org> wrote: >> > On 3/19/15, Abilio Marques <abili...@gmail.com> wrote: >> >> >> >> Most of the friends I've shown fossil to love the idea of having SCM, >> >> wiki >> >> and tickets in the same, tiny place.
