Thank you both for your replies. Clearly I have more to learn about this, and the learning curve is steep with Git! But I'll mull it over and let it sink in.
So what brought me down this road initially was going through the lessons at http://pcottle.github.io/learnGitBranching/. In the "A Mixed Bag" series of lessons, the first lesson is "Grabbing just 1 commit". The use case is taking some buggy code, adding debug and print statements to it, tracking down the bug and fixing it, then merging just the bug fixes back in to master, without the debug and print statements. The link above is a great visual tool, but now I'd like to see a tangible example, because this use case is powerful if I can get it to work!
