Staging Changes Within Vim

I've always used git from the command line, but only recently have I started to leverage fugitive.vim to more quickly do some common git commands from within vim.

I mostly use fugitive to stage changes for committing. To stage entire files, you can view the repository status, :Gstatus, and then navigate up and down (k and j) tapping - next to the files to be staged (or unstaged).

I've started to use git's interactive mode for staging changes from the command line (git add --patch) more and more and recently wondered if the same thing can be accomplished with fugitive.

It turns out it's pretty simple to do so. Instead of tapping - next to a file you want to stage, you can tap p next to it and you will be immediately dropped into interactive mode for that file. Prepare the lines you want to stage (or, again, unstage) and save.
