Have you tried:

	git add -i
	git commit

The `git add -i` flag starts up an interactive tool that you can use to add patch hunks to the index, staging them for the next commit. Running commit with no arguments will then commit exactly what is in the index, leaving the other hunks beind in the working directory.

Or did I miss something? Note that `git add -i` was added as a new feature in Git 1.5.0 (and later).
