commit part of a file with Git
git add -p file.txt

$ git diff Gemfile
diff --git a/Gemfile b/Gemfile

Stage this hunk [y,n,q,a,d,/,j,J,g,e,?]?
It is showing the first change in the file and the options: [y,n,q,a,d,/,j,J,g,e,?]
Pressing y will add only that block and will keep showing the next blocks.
