Git & Intellij, How do I commit only parts of a changed file
I can't seem to commit only a fraction of the changes in a file, it seems to be all of the file or nothing, I'm using Git with Intellij, is it possible?
Thanks.

Update - 2/2018: The first EAP build for 2018.1 has landed and it's HERE! It is implemented as checkboxes for each hunk, so you can selectively check on them before making the commit. Enjoy!
Update - 12/2017:
Well 2017.3 was just released and this didn't make it in. So let's hope for 2018.1.
Update - 11/2017:
This has been 'in progress' for months now. The 2017.3 EAP releases have been coming out for a while but this issue hasn't been finished yet. With no updates to the issue other than people asking when it will be done, I'm thinking this will slip to the 2018 release.
Update - 2017:
This issue has been open for years as noted in some of the comments. But it is now in progress and sheduled to land in 2017.3 which is currently in EAP release and should be available this fall. So now, four years after this was asked, you will soon be able to actually do it right in the IDE.
