Actually things are worse: When I tried to fix the comment for the unexpected 
commit at least using "git commit --amend", more files were committed!

Hi!

Reading the manual, I realized that "it is the way it is (it works as 
documented)", but to me it's surprising, meaning: I feel it's wrong:
(git-2.16.4)
I have staged several files, and then I do "git add -interactive file" to add 
some selected changes from file.
After that a "git diff --cached file" just shows the changes added 
interactively, but when I "git add file" to commit those changes), even the 
unstaged changes from file are committed.
I feel this is inconsistent: At least "git diff --cached file" should behave 
like "git commit file", meaning "git commit file" should be fixed IMHO.
Or are there any reasonable use cased for that?

Regards,
Ulrich Windl
