 ## Git Add Hunks
 ### `git add -p`
@@ -23,13 +27,20 @@ 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
+    - `y` to stage the hunk
-    - `n` to leave it unstaged
+    - `n` to not stage the hunk
-    - `s` to split the hunk into smaller parts
+    - `q` to quit; do not stage the hunk or any remaining ones
-    - `e` to edit the hunk manually
+    - `a` to stage the hunk and all later hunks in the file
-    - `q` to quit and leave remaining hunks unstaged

+    - `?` to print help
 - If you choose `s`, Git will attempt to split the hunk into smaller hunks so you can stage a smaller section.
