Git: Select which staged files to commit

From $man git-commit:

After staging changes to many files, you can alter the order the changes are recorded in, by giving pathnames to git commit. When pathnames are given, the command makes a commit that only records the changes made to the named paths:

$ edit hello.c hello.h $ git add hello.c hello.h $ edit Makefile $ git commit Makefile
