An obvious deficiency would also be the presence of hundreds of debug quirks I had to introduce to find the bug which I finally fixed. But I do not want to commit, because it is such a mess. So: into the index, ye files. Now I can clean up everything I introduced to find the bug. If the result does not work as expected? "git diff"! But now that I cleaned up the mess, I find that there is a more elegant way to solve the problem. Into the index, ye files! Clicketyclick, if I mess up, I always have the state in the index!
