No.

You can do this with Emacs DVC. I don't know about Guitone.

You can do it from the command line with the --exclude argument and by
specifying files directly. 

So we _could_ extend the commit editor to do this, by providing fields
that are the file args (allowing Unix shell wildcards would be best) and
the --exclude arg.

Thanks for your feedback.
