What am I doing wrong?

Does this happen with ANY range you select? If not, please provide the exact file contents and describe exactly whats the selection range you are using.

[offg777]

Any range from this file: 'page-recent-orders.component.ts'. However, when I select a range from the other files it work as expected. I can commit all the changes in the file in one commit, but I wanted to put them in different commits. Is there a way I could send this file to you privately?

@offg777 @joaomoreno I am not able to reproduce this issue

Same problem here:
Version 1.24.1
OS: macOS High Sierra 10.13.5

I'm trying to stage specific changes for a file in git repo.

I'm not positive how general this reproduction is but I found a pretty consistent means of reproducing it for one file I'm working on at the moment. If I have changes in the middle of the file, and the also a change at the end of the file where I delete a trailing blank line, if I try to stage the earlier changed lines but not the last deleted line change I get the Git: illegal value for 'line'

I can reproduce this issue. If there is a deletion at the end of the file (last line) I get the same error message.

Version 1.25.1
OS: macOS Sierra 10.12.6
Using git 2.18.0 from /usr/local/bin/git

[joelricci]

I'm having the same problem. Adding a new line at the end of the file seems to circumvent the issue.

[mittalyashu]

Facing the same issue. Not able to stage a deleted line.

Something like this would be awesome.

[KevinSnyderCodes]

Can confirm that a deleted line at the end of the file causes this issue.

Version 1.26.1
OS: macOS High Sierra 10.13.6

I'm a bit late to the party, but yes, a removed linebreak at the end of the file it is.
