Agreed, I don't tend to use `git add -i` much directly either. I use editor integrations and/or a GUI tool that allows line-by-line staging. I rather like Git Tower's[1] approach: it's easy to stage directly in the diff view either by hunk or by selected lines. This works nicely because most of the time the diff hunk(s) are OK, and I only need to mess with a selection in the less common cases.
