On: Ask HN: What is your Git commit/push flow?

Have a look at `tig`. It's even included in Git for Windows now and does this reasonably well.

Only the keybindings are a bit weird if you're not accustomed to Vim bindings:

- Open tig

- Change into the staging view with `s`

- Select your file using the arrow or `j` and `k` keys

- Press Return to show the diff

- Navigate to the line(s) in question with `j` and `k` (arrow keys will switch files)

- Stage parts with `1` (single line), `2` (chunk parts), `u` (chunks) or split chunks with `\`

- "Leave" the diff with `q`

- You can find the keybindings with `h` in the help screen, which also uses Vim keys -- like manpages usually do

"s" is status view, which you can also get at by running "tig status" directly.

"c" is staging view.

> - Stage parts with `1` (single line), `2` (chunk parts), `u` (chunks) or split chunks with `\`

You can also revert a chunk or file by using "!". Sometimes this is very useful.

Ah, thanks for the correction :)

I used tig for a bit because it was the nicest way I could find to do line-level staging in a terminal. But was really impressed with gitui https://github.com/extrawurst/gitui so I've switched to that
