Never too late to stash. If I decide I need to split out changes already
made, I stash the files, then do "fossil stash gdiff" to selectively (re)
apply the stashed changes, then build/test/commit. Then "fossil stash
gdiff" to apply more of the changes, then build/test/commit. Repeat until
all need changes are done. If I think I might later need what I stashed, I
can restore it and commit to an appropriate branch.

If anything, using the staging area for partial commits just makes it
harder to build and test before committing.
