Which topic is this? I can't find one where it works (it's always "Sorry, cannot edit this hunk" on seen 2.28.0.508.g7d1bebc7fe). Yeah, it's split that would be a problem, edit just stages and moves on. Split would be nice, but I don't actually recall it ever working before - it doesn't work now on diffs from actual blank files. Getting edit back (if there's a topic that does this already) makes it work for my usage.
