Subject: Re: editing a VC diff to modify the current version

> When I modify a file under VC then I always make a diff before checkin to see everything is right. Sometimes the changes have a typo or a simple modification occurs to me which could be done right in the diff. With vscode you can actually edit the diff and the changes are reflected back to the current version, so you don't have to go back to the file, do the modifications, make a diff again to see everything is right, etc.

Also, you can stage/unstage or revert selected ranges in the diff which is also handy:

I'm not sure if a range here is equivalent to a diff hunk or you can stage/revert parts of a hunk which could also be useful.

I know I can split a hunk in emacs diff mode, and it also occured to me if emacs could support reverting some lines, or even just a region within lines, without having to split the hunk first manually .
