I almost exclusively use add -p. It's another moment to review my changes and it saves me from having to type out the names of the files I've changed. I don't know if I've ever committed a file unintentionally since adopting it.

I like it especially in concert with git commit --amend, which lets me tack my newest changes onto the previous commit. (Though an interactive rebase with fixup is even better)

I’ve had the opposite problem: forgetting to add new files.

No need for the rebase to be interactive:

    $ git commit --fixup=<commit>
    $ git rebase --autosquash <base>

Any good solutions for this around?

For now I've adopted running `git status` after `git add -p` to make sure there's no untracked files, but it feels a bit clunky
