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.)
