Hi

Does anybody have code to stage commits using a the visual diff/merge tools supported by git-difftool? Is there support in git itself somewhere, even?

I'm looking for something functionally similar to git add -p

Looking at the git-difftool source I can see how to write a command to do it, but wanted to check if it had already been implemented.

Did I miss a way that already exists?
Thanks
John
