I love using git add -p ever since @maestromac
told me about it, but I find myself using Atom's Git integration to pick out a few lines of changes I needed to discard. Also, their merge conflict handling is extremely easy to use.
Haven't touched their GitHub integration at all though.
Do you see any use of GUIs? I personally find I benefit from the visual component when I want to verify changes to avoid mistakes. While you can do this on the command line, I much prefer a visual tool.

Does this fall in the category of evil wizards?
I think if it's a tool that helps you do something more efficiently, then great.
I'll use a visual tool for diffs or complex tree visualizations. But really that tool is just GitHub.
