Or just use a good IDE that makes doing atomic commits pretty natural.
I've only tried the VS code hunk stager thing, and found it cumbersome compared to command line, but if you can make a GUI work for you ya go for it. I've never found it worth the trouble personally
Shout out to Lazygit for letting me stage individual lines
Looks pretty neat. I like that it shows the commands it's issuing!
You should try the JetBrains IDEs, as the other said, you can pick changes line by line graphically, when you commit, when you do a diff with another branch or when you fix conflicts. It's much more convenient than commands and terminal text editors.
