How to Install commit-patch in Ubuntu 18.04

sudo apt install commit-patch

Description:

utility to commit fine grained patches to source code control repositories

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, Monotone, Subversion, 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.
