*** 'C-x v v' on a diff buffer commits it as a patch.
You can create a diff buffer by e.g. 'C-x v D' ('vc-root-diff'),
then remove unnecessary hunks, and commit only part of your changes
by typing 'C-x v v' in that diff buffer. Currently this works only
with Git.

*** 'C-x v v' in a diffs buffer allows to commit only some of the changes.
This command is intended to allow you to commit only some of the
changes you have in your working tree. Begin by creating a buffer
with the changes against the last commit, e.g. with 'C-x v D'
('vc-root-diff'). Then edit the diffs to remove the hunks you don't
want to commit. Finally, type 'C-x v v' in that diff buffer to commit
only part of your changes, those whose hunks were left in the buffer.
Currently this feature works only with the Git as 'vc-backend'.

*** 'C-x v v' on an unregistered file will now use the most specific backend.
