This is about mixing "git add -p" and "git commit -a" (or "git commit <path>") where you may accidentally lose staged changes. After the discussion with Jonathan, I'm going with a bit different approach than v1, this behavior now becomes default, and if the user wants the old behavior back, they can use --clobber-index.
Another change is "git commit <path>" is covered as well, as pointed out by Jacob.
I will need to add some test cases of course, if this direction is still promising. One thing I'm not sure about is whether want to deliberately clobber the index often, then perhaps we should add a config key to bring the old behavior back.
