I use `git add . -p` which allows me to 1) selectively create my commit, and 2) re-read what I've changed to understand it all better. I agree about wholesale adding, but of course there are exceptions when you already did `git diff` Or something.

Side note: `git status` is not a good means of "knowing what was changed". I see others use it constantly (doing git status -> git add . -> git commit) and it'a sloppy IMO.
