[PATCH v3 0/3] Git commit --patch (again)

From: Conrad Irwin <conrad.irwin@gmail.com>

Hi all,

I've rebased my support for git commit -p onto the current master branch. I've posted it to the list twice before [1][2].

The purpose of the branch is to add the -p/--patch flag, used by other commands such as git add and git checkout, to git commit. This makes it much easier, and more convenient, to construct well-formed patches after a session of writing code.

This branch also includes a fix for git-commit --interactive, so that if the committer aborts after selecting hunks, the index is unchanged (just as specifying filenames in the arguments doesn't permanently add them to the index).

Feedback (of any variety) would be much appreciated,

Conrad
