My workflow is to ... not use "git add -i" ;-). To add patch hunks individually, "git add -p" jumps directly to the "patch" inner loop of "git add -i". To add whole individual files, a plain "git add" using zsh's smart completion (autocompletes only files for which "git add" is not a no-op), or globs. -- Matthieu Moy http://www-verimag.imag.fr/~moy/
