Show HN: `Git add -p` with multiple buckets

This is the one P4 workflow feature I wish git had from the beginning. In Perforce, changes can be grouped into uncommitted "change lists." Its really helpful if you're working on multiple things especially when they're unrelated features or projects. Works very well for artists and such.

Sadly P4 fumbles at the 10 because you can't split changes by hunk, file only.

I hope something like this (or maybe just multiple named stages?) makes it into git.

My company still uses p4 for most things and most developers I know HATE it, compared to the equivalent git(hub/lab).

Largest complaints currently are the infesibility of the feature-branch workflow and the terribad pre-commit code review story.

I much prefer git and the git ecosystem but a good feature is a good feature

Are you ex-MSFT? I am, and I miss that workflow.

Idea can do that with git.
