[PATCH] git-gui: allow Ctrl+T to toggle multiple paths (Re: [BUG] git gui can't commit multiple files)
From: Johannes Schindelin <johannes.schindelin@gmx.de>
Subject: git-gui: allow Ctrl+T to toggle multiple paths
In the Unstaged Changes panel, selecting multiple lines (using shift+click) and pressing ctrl+t to stage them causes one file to be staged instead of all of the selected files. The same also happens when unstaging files.
This regression appears to have been introduced by gitgui-0.21.0~7^2~1 (Allow keyboard control to work in the staging widgets, 2016-10-01).
Also reported by zosrothko as a Git-for-Windows issue: https://github.com/git-for-windows/git/issues/1012

Thanks for this pointer. I'm including the patch here so the project can consider applying it (it doesn't appear to have been sent upstream before). I have not tested it or verified the claim it makes about what change introduced this regression --- if you're able to help with that, that would be welcome.
Thanks, Jonathan
