But how do you make sure that it works as expected? I.e. when you commit a hunk using, say, variable "rule_the_world", and by mistake (happen to me all the time, maybe to you, too?) forgot to select the hunk which declares that variable, maybe because it is hidden in a forest of other variables?

I _try_ to test commits by my eyes, by compiling, and by running the version I'll commit. (Okay, sometimes I run the test _after_ committing, but then I test to see if I have to amend something.)

Ciao, Dscho
