If you're using a programmer's text editor (SimpleText, vim, Emacs), you should be able to touch type your way through committing code. This is a basic operation. Here's my workflow using Emacs and magit: 1) Right Alt-G to bring up the magit git interface. 2) Down arrow and tab, repeatedly, to review diffs, with "s" to selectively stage part of a change. 3) "c", a commit message, and Control-C, Control-C to commit. Then I'm working on the next feature. This whole process is in muscle memory. Obviously, the workflow in SimpleText or vim would be different, but there's no reason it shouldn't be just as fast. Fast commits are not just for IDEs.
