Hello, I hope this hasn't been discussed before.
I'm a big fan of cleanliness in commits and therefore often use git add --patch to sort code changes I made into the right commits etc. What I then often encountered was the situation where I happened to have inserted consecutive lines of code that conceptually belong to different commits. Normally I can nicely split patches, but not in this case, making manually editing the patch the only alternative. Shouldn't there be at least a way to quickly say line-by-line if you want to have it added or not? Personally, I find manually editing just annoying, it seems overly arcane, but it also prevents me from really recommending "add --patch" as best practice. I think it's a really good idea for many reasons to do so, but I can't really tell people already struggling with using git that I expect them to edit patches manually.
