This works in the same was as git commit --interactive, and is
equivalent to running git add -p before git commit.

Sorry, failed to use sendmail. (having read dire warnings about sending

The reason I suggested this is so that if you abort the commit (by
leaving the commit message empty), the index would be unchanged; at the
moment if you abort the commit the git-add is remembered. Certainly any
changes committed would be removed from the index. It also would allow
for git commit -p --only instead of having it always work like --include
(which might even be better default behaviour). (It's also worth noting
that git commit -i is --include, not --interactive)

Well spotted :). Relatedly, git-commit currently forbids --interactive
with paths, which should also be changed (though in a different commit I
assume); I did not copy that limitation to --patch.
I've updated this patch, thank you very much for the feedback.
