⚡ Summing up everything in this post with a gif.

1. Make sure you're in the source control view to use this feature
2. Select the range of code
3. Open ··· at the top-right corner of the editor (not the ··· at the top of the git panel on the left)
4. You can also press COMMAND (⌘) + K + COMMAND (⌘) + S to open keyboard shortcuts and search for range and then set a keyboard shortcut for this action.

Answer 2

Update: October 2017: In the latest VSCode as of October 2017 (version 1.18) you can actually stage specific lines really easy just like you would do it with the git CLI git add -p. You just have to click on the edited line from the side like, watch the diff and apply it or not.

Answer 3

Use Interactive staging.

command - git add -p <file_name> this will show you the file, and you can choose which one you want to commit after parting the changes

Answer 4

• Open up the Source Control view, then click a changed file to open the comparison.

• Select the lines you want to stage.

• Click '...' then Stage Selected Ranges.
