Proposal: Visual selection of lines to be staged

[anselstetter]

This project is getting better and better.
Thank you for your work on it. ❤️

Coming from Magit and using evil mode, I've used visual mode to highlight the lines I wanted to stage.
So after pressing s, everything highlighted was staged at once, without the need to individual select each line.

Did you consider something like this?

This was really convenient.

Sorry for the late reply. Yes I think this should be in there!
I can't remember how lines are selected in evil-magit. But preferably we'd just copy the behaviour imo.

Had a peek in Doom Emacs' Magit.

Reverse is bound to -
Revert is bound to _
v and V enter VISUAL LINE mode.

Whereas in gitu, v is reverse and V Revert.

I guess we may want to mimic those.
