Hi,

git gui is especially useful because it allows to select diff hunks.

You should give a _big_ _fat_ _red_ warning there.

If you selectively commit diff hunks, you _never_ tested what you
committed.

That is the reason we're not advertising git add -i more actively.

Hmm... If you do 'git cherry-pick' or 'git rebase' you also did
not test what you committed. Should we advertise them less
actively as well?

But I see your point. Selecting diff hunks tends to be more fine
grained than cherry-picking. But this depends on the details of
what you're doing. I don't think a general warning is appropriate.
