Currently, there's no way to perform a partial staging/unstaging in LibGit2Sharp. I'd suggest you to subscribe to Issue 195 in order to be notified when this is available.

Actually, the action of committing consists of taking a snapshot of the Index and creating a durable Commit git object in the object database. As such, the Commit API doesn't accept paths.

In order to create a Commit from a file (or list of files) on your file system, you'd first have to add them to the Index with repo.Index.Stage(), then invoke the repo.Commit() method.
