I would say yes. But not only files but "hunks" (which are parts of 
files). I think you designed the Git interface of the Gambas IDE in 2018 
with SVN in mind which in contrast to Git has no staging area:

https://git-scm.com/about/staging-area
https://www.geeksforgeeks.org/staging-in-git/

As long as the IDE adds any stuff to the staging area by itself (which 
it does now) it is unusable for me.

Please play around with 'tig' on the commandline and a Git repo to see 
how an easy Git interface can be that shows the three essential concepts 
of Git, the so called 'working tree', the 'staging area' and the 'local 
repo'.
