git add -p, although its main problem is that you can only select chunks, not separate lines. Actually I see that Tower has that same issue. IIRC Github for Mac allows you to select individual lines, even in the same chunk.

Typing "e" will let you edit the chunk. Then you can get as fine grained as you like.

Personally, I use Emacs and commit-patch [1].

you can select individual lines in Tower, as well.
