Highly recommend throwing --patch on any git commands you're used to using. You will have the prettiest, most atomic fkn commit, I'm serious people will love you for it.

I mean many people won't care, but the quality folk will notice and approve.

We make a singular commit per feature.

I always find this hard to follow personally.

Trunk based, eh? Yeah, we do that on a couple teams where I'm at, too. I like the philosophy, but force pushing the same commit over and over as you're incorporating review feedback is antisocial, especially when you've got devs trying to test your changes out on their machines.

eh, just squash and merge. Feature branch can be messy as long as main is clean

Yep. You have to make sure your feature branch works.

Or just use a good IDE that makes doing atomic commits pretty natural.

I've only tried the VS code hunk stager thing, and found it cumbersome compared to command line, but if you can make a GUI work for you ya go for it. I've never found it worth the trouble personally

Shout out to Lazygit for letting me stage individual lines

Looks pretty neat. I like that it shows the commands it's issuing!

You should try the JetBrains IDEs, as the other said, you can pick changes line by line graphically, when you commit, when you do a diff with another branch or when you fix conflicts. It's much more convenient than commands and terminal text editors.
