Hi Phillip,

Thanks for reminding me, I did not really think about it anymore. The
built-in `git add -i`/`git add -p` has been available since v2.25.0. Since
v2.26.0, we also respect that flag in the `-p` modes of `checkout`,
`stash`, etc

And from the way at least _I_ read the commit log, it seems that the code
has been pretty stable (except for that bug fix where `e` was allowed by
mistake).

The next step will be to invert the default (which is `false` right now)
for `add.interactive.useBuiltin`, I guess.

Ciao,
Dscho
