+# Git Add Methods
+## Git Add Sections
+### `git add -e`
+Select lines of changes interactively. This allows you to stage only specific lines of changes in a file.\
+Pros: More control over what gets staged.
+Cons: More manual work, you have to edit the patch file yourself, which can be error-prone and time-consuming.
+#### Guidelines:
+- staged changes are marked with a "+" at the beginning of the line.
+- unstaged changes are marked with a "-" at the beginning of the line.
+- unchanged lines are not marked.
+- To stage a change, add a "+" at the beginning of the line.
+- To unstage a change, add a "-" at the beginning of the line.
+- To keep a line unchanged, leave it as is.
+### `git add -p`
+Select hunks of changes interactively. This allows you to stage only parts of the changes in a file.\
+Pros: Easier to use than the -e method for staging specific parts of changes.\
+Cons: Sometimes split won't work, which will force you to use the -e method.
+#### Guidelines
+- Run `git add -p <file>` or `git add -p` to go through patch hunks interactively.
+- For each hunk, choose:
+    - `y` to stage this hunk
+    - `n` to leave it unstaged
+    - `s` to split the hunk into smaller parts
+    - `e` to edit the hunk manually
+    - `q` to quit and leave remaining hunks unstaged
+    - `a` to stage this hunk and all remaining hunks
+    - `d` to leave this hunk and all remaining hunks unstaged
+- If you choose `s`, Git will attempt to split the hunk into smaller hunks so you can stage a smaller section.
+- If you choose `e`, Git opens the patch in a temporary editor; add `+` to lines to stage, `-` to lines to keep unstaged, then save and close.
+- When finished, run `git status` to verify which hunks were staged.
