git addgit add -pOtherwise, I would be staging the whole file without looking at what I'm staging first
How do you run unit tests for commits if you're only adding bits of the file?
You can do
git stash -kbefore running tests.You're never actually "adding" the whole file unless it's a brand-new file,
git add my-filejust adds every patch change for that file without confirmation.Using
git add -p my-file, the same hooks will run as if you staged and committed all changes tomy-file.
