Daily Software Tips & Tricks

Ever finished a long coding session only to realize you’ve changed five different things in one file? Instead of dumping everything into a single messy commit, try using "git add -p". This command walks you through every single change (or hunk) in your files and asks if you want to stage it.

It’s a game-changer for keeping your commit history clean and readable. You can stage the bug fix, skip the experimental console log you forgot to delete, and keep your refactoring separate. Your future self and your reviewers will thank you for the clarity.
