It stages line-wise for me. How do I get it to stage less than an entire line?

I could swear I remember this working in the past, but I can find no hint of it in a few quick searches, so I'm likely mistaken.
I'm sorry for the misinformation.Thanks for saying something.
cd $(mktemp -d)
git init
echo bar > file.txt
git add file.txt
git commit -m "init"
echo foo_bar_baz > file.txt
# select only "foo_" in magit-status and press "s"
git diff --cached

I can't really imagine this feature working that well with just selection. Editing of the diff seems required.I just updated magit, too. It seems to have been published 3 days ago.
