a while back the more general subject a "partial commits" was discussed,
and ISTR that a number of unsolved problems prevented the feature from
being implemented. E. g., what will your patch do in the following
situation:

mv a.c b.c
mv d.c a.c
tla commit -x a.c

IMO instead of adding *another* incomplete implementation of partial
commits the more general problem should be solved.

Bye,
