I still don't know exactly how to operate adds and commits from the
command line. I regularly get bitten by not supplying the -a and -i
options.

I'm coming from darcs, where you can select which each diff hunk
to put in a commit separately.

However, I almost never do that. I operate git like darcs, from the
emacs support mode.  I almost never do -a commits anyway, because with
emacs (M-x git-status) it's more natural to make functionally distinct
commits, at the risk of introducing non-tested tree states in the
repository.
