This came up once a while back. Here's the discussion:

  http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.version-control.git/169187

I proposed a solution there where developers push their partial
resolutions, and the integrator (or just "next person" if it is a chain
of developers) uses "git checkout" to pull the fixes. But note that I
never actually _used_ that in practice. It was a thought experiment, so
there may be gotchas.
