Hello list,

Couldn't the following two steps be done automagically by --patch:

``` git add -N path/to/untracked/file/wishing/to/partially/add git add --patch path/to/untracked/file/wishing/to/partially/add ```

when one simply does:

`git add --patch path/to/untracked/file/wishing/to/partially/add`

Cheers, Vito Caputo
