You can already do that with tla, e.g.:

   tla commit -s'What I did' -- file.c

I often do this to commit a bunch of uncommitted separate changes as
separate changesets.

It'd be nice to be able to do per-hunk commits too, but that's a much
harder problem (not least being the question of just how you _specify_
it to a command-line tool!).  What I usually to do that is use `tla
changes' to make a patch, patch -R to undo all the changes in the
project tree, and then split up the patch into separate patch-files, and
apply and commit each in turn.
