When do you apply a change in Magit?
The change can be a file or a hunk, or when the region is active (i.e. when there is a selection) several files or hunks, or even just part of a hunk. The change or changes that these commands – and many others – would act on are highlighted. Magit also implements several other “apply variants” in addition to staging and unstaging.

Where can I install Magit on my computer?
Magit can be installed using Emacs’ package manager or manually from its development repository. Magit is available from Melpa and Melpa-Stable. If you haven’t used Emacs’ package manager before, then it is high time you familiarize yourself with it by reading the documentation in the Emacs manual, see (emacs)Packages.
