+Normally version control systems don't allow fine grained commits.
+commit-patch allows the user to control exactly what gets committed by
+letting the user supply a patch to be committed rather than using the
+files in the current working directory.
+
+commit-patch supports Darcs, Git, Mercurial, Bazaar, Subversion,
+Monotone or CVS repositories.
+
+Also included is an Emacs interface to commit-patch. It allows you to
+just hit C-c C-c in any patch buffer to apply and commit only the
+changes indicated by the patch, regardless of the changes in your
+working directory.
