Description
This project is getting better and better.
Thank you for your work on it. ❤️
Coming from Magit and using evil mode, I've used visual mode to highlight the lines I wanted to stage.
So after pressing s, everything highlighted was staged at once, without the need to individual select each line.
Did you consider something like this?
This was really convenient.

Research direction
The proposal concerns gitu's TUI staging flow and the s action; start by locating how staging is handled and how visual selections are represented. Compare that flow with the Magit and evil-mode behavior described in the issue. Done means a user can highlight lines and stage them together, but the issue names no files or tests.
